The San Francisco Citizen

This was the scene at Ron Dudum’s campaign headquarters on 2239 Taraval between 32nd & 33rd Avenue at his recent open house. Campaign Manager Tuan Nguyen is saying some of their recent events have attracted over 100 supporters.

Per Tuan:

“The Ron Dudum for Supervisor Campaign  will push forward and continue to gain new voters with the strong neighborhood support of locals.  This campaign is not about race or ethnic identification.  This is an opportunity for Ron Dudum,  a Sunset native, and District 4 to bring our experience, enthusiasm, and uniquely Sunset concerns to City Hall.”

It’s August so things are hotting up in this foggy district. Read about Supervisor Carmen Chu’s “big money” race against Ron here.

San Francisco Supervisor Carmen Chu packed them in last night when she addressed the future of America at the New Leaders Council Annual Fundraiser last night inside the San Francisco offices of Google.

Despite some hectoring from the MSM, Ms. Chu seems to be taking her time to think about this November’s election day. Some people are already working hard to try to replace her, like Ron Dudum, for example. Only time will tell.

Here’s what the NLC wants to do: 

New Leaders Council is building the future of progressive leadership by providing young people with mentoring, networking and job placement programs in the fields of journalism, business, politics, and government. With a commitment to social responsibility and civil independence, New Leaders Council is focused on shaping the future by developing tomorrow’s leaders today and molding tomorrow’s political environment.

The bandwagon opposing aerial spraying for light brown apple moth eradication is gaining momentum.

Last night, San Francisco Supervisors Carmen Chu, Gerardo Sandoval, and Ross Mirkarimi, along with scientists, physicians and organic farmers, all addressed a standing-room-only crowd of hundreds at the Hall of Flowers in Strybing Arboretum.

Senator Carole Migden praises the efforts of the assembled experts.

In related news, the “twist-tie” approach is under new scrutiny in San Mateo County. 

On it goes. Per the Chronicle:

On Saturday, Stop the Spray Marin is holding a march and rally from 9:30 a.m. to noon at the southwest end of the Corte Madera Town Center. More information about the events is at www.sfspraytownhall.org and www.stopthespraymarin.org.

It’s hard to imagine light aircraft buzzing the city with spray canisters firing after seeing all this agitation, but who knows…
