Gavin Newsom seemed to be &#8220;embarrassed&#8221; by San Francisco, his hometown.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He wrote that the city&#8217;s government officeholders are more concerned about holding on to their power and influence than governing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/california-cities-rattled-prostitution-human-trafficking-broad-daylight-cops-pin-blame-new-law\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CALIFORNIA CITIES RATTLED BY PROSTITUTION, HUMAN TRAFFICKING IN BROAD DAYLIGHT AS COPS PIN BLAME ON NEW LAW<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Others peddle radicalism: One city supervisor is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America (whose nationwide membership would fail to fill the larger Big 10 stadiums). These crafty legislators have the time and resources to deceive voters with what, on the surface, might appear like insignificant tweaks to the city\u2019s operating instructions or by rule changes written in language that seems to be deliberately opaque,&#8221; Moritz said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He criticized the city&#8217;s supervisor&#8217;s board in addition to their system of ranked choice voting.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Then there is the matter of San Francisco being a one-party town. The nominating committee of San Francisco\u2019s Democratic County Central Committee has an impressive record in backing candidates seeking their first electoral victory as members of local transportation and educational boards. These slots put candidates on the conveyor belt to higher office. Inbreeding is not healthy \u2014 particularly for politicians,&#8221; he added.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Moritz said he helped finance and start TogetherSF in 2020, which has played a roll in some elections.\u00a0He wrote that an incumbent supervisor on the board was not re-elected for the first time in 20 years and noted the recall of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/san-francisco-district-attorney-recall-election\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">San Francisco&#8217;s DA, Chesa Boudin,<\/a> in addition to three school board members.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/young-san-franciscans-rally-embattled-da-recall-election\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>YOUNG SAN FRANCISCANS RALLY FOR EMBATTLED DA FACING RECALL ELECTION: \u2018FIGHTING FOR THE SOUL OF SAN FRANCISCO\u2019<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Residents of San Francisco overwhelmingly approved a vote to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/san-francisco-recalls-school-board-members-clear-message\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recall three members<\/a> of the school board in February 2022.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Critics, including San Francisco Mayor London Breed, argued school board President Gabriela L\u00f3pez, Vice President Faauuga Moliga and Commissioner Alison Collins pushed progressive politics and did not act in the best interest of children during the COVID-10 pandemic, according to the San Francisco Department of Elections.<\/p>\n<p>Moritz concluded that he was optimistic about San Francisco&#8217;s future.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There are plenty of reasons to believe that Democratic San Francisco can again become a bellwether for the nation \u2014 this time by turning around a city that\u2019s been held hostage by the political classes.
