For the first time since the war began, he had a question mark over his head.The image […]

Mission Local is publishing campaign dispatches for each of the major contenders in the mayor’s race, alternating among candidates weekly until November. This week: Daniel Lurie. Read earlier dispatches here.With ballots being mailed out to San Francisco voters on Oct. 7, the 7.6 percent of them who registered as Republicans might be surprised to see whom their fellow Republicans are telling them to vote for. A rising Republican political group called San Francisco Briones Society has put moderate-leaning Democratic candidate Daniel Lurie as their first choice for the November election, ranking Mark Farrell as second and the incumbent Mayor London Breed as third. All three are registered Democrats. This came at the expense of Farrell, whose conservative campaign rhetoric has won over law-and-order voters and is backed by donors such as Thomas Coates — a rent-control foe who gave $500,000 to a […]
