SAN FRANCISCO — In the scenic neighborhood of Potrero Hill, Daniel Lurie, an heir to the Levi Strauss & Co. fortune, officially declared his candidacy for Mayor of San Francisco.
Lurie, who founded anti-poverty nonprofit Tipping Point, marked his entrance to the race with a commitment to address the pressing issues that have gripped the city, from homelessness to public safety. His announcement, while met with enthusiasm by some, has also sparked debates about the necessity for experienced leadership in one of the country's most complex and challenging political environments.
Among those in attendance was Deldelp Medina, a long-time San Francisco resident and co-president of the SF LatinX Democratic Club.
