Incumbents Connie Chan in District 1 and Myrna Melgar in District 7 will hold onto their seats. In District 11, the race remains tight.
There are now very few ballots remaining — perhaps 24,700. Of those, 6,700 are late-arriving vote-by-mail ballots and some 18,000 are provisional ballots cast at citywide polling places . Turnout is tracking to be about 77.8 percent, maximum. The average San Francisco turnout in a presidential year, going back 108 years, is 77 percent.
After today’s results, Mahmood leads Preston after ranked-choice tabulations by just over 1,400 votes. While most of this cycle’s winning candidates heavily outperformed the competition in first-place votes, the incumbent Preston did not. He only garnered 291 more than Mahmood, and then was swamped by an overwhelming transfer rate from candidates Scotty Jacobs and Autumn Looijen to Mahmood.
Alexander found himself 5,000 votes down after the earliest Election Day results but gained on Jersin in nearly every subsequent count. In District 11, the last contested supervisorial race, Arntz said it’s not clear how many votes are outstanding. There were around 1,200 provisional votes from District 11 at the start of the process, however, and some of them were counted today.Mission Local is bringing you election stories from across San Francisco.
