The single biggest donor in June's recall election has sat on the sidelines ahead of November's ballot.
Less than a month before Election Day, San Francisco candidates and committees still haven't raised as much money as the groups that supported and opposed the June recall of Chesa Boudin.
That's at least in part because the largest contributor in each of those elections hasn't given a dime this time around. What Eadweard Muybridge's 1878 panorama reveals about San Francisco The 19-foot-long work showing San Francisco before the devastating 1906 earthquake and fire is on view at the Society of California Pioneers in the Presidio.
San Francisco campaign finance law caps contributions to individual candidates at $500, but there are no limits on donations to committees backing or opposing ballot measures. Measures D and E are the only ones with comparable fundraising to the February school board recall. Proponents and opponents of that recall received approximately $2.1 million in funds. Committees weighing in on propositions I and J — combatting propositions to determine the future of John F. Kennedy Drive — have raised about $1.3 million, but no other measures have garnered more than $1 million in donations.
None of those funds include donations from Neighbors for a Better San Francisco Advocacy, which spent millions to unseat their predecessors. The committee's own fundraising has slowed considerably since Boudin's recall in June.
