Congressional race
For the first time in nearly 40 years, Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi‘s San Francisco House seat is up for grabs.
District 1 Supervisor Connie Chan and state Sen. Scott Wiener advanced from the June primary and will face off in November.
Supervisor races
Five districts across the city will elect their supervisors in November — District 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10.
In three, incumbents are running for re-election: District 6 Supervisor Matt Dorsey; District 2 Supervisor Stephen Sherrill and District 4 Supervisor Alan Wong. Both Sherrill and Wong won in June after being appointed to their seats. District 8 and 10 will see more crowded and competitive races.
School board race
Eight candidates are vying for three seats on the city’s seven-person school board, which governs the San Francisco Unified School District’s (SFUSD) policies, budget, personnel and more.
