When is a candidate too conservative for San Francisco?
Mark Farrell ’s opponents in the San Francisco mayoral race have suggested he’s in cahoots with Republicans — if not secretly one himself — for months now.Responding to a new political action committee that is labeling him as “MAGA Mark,” a visibly peeved Farrell took to social media to combat the claim and defend his Democratic bona fides.
“My opponents are turning to dirty politics and name calling because they know I am best positioned to deliver the change that San Francisco deserves,” Farrell told The Examiner in a statement. “As a born and raised, lifelong San Francisco Democrat, I am proud of my track record of advancing democratic priorities and values as Interim Mayor, Supervisor, and as an elected member of the San Francisco Democratic Central County Committee.
Among the largest donors to Farrell’s ballot-measure committee in support of Proposition D is William Oberndorf, the primary financial supporter of the Boudin recall and a longtime contributor to Republican causes and candidates across the country. It’s not just his ties to Oberndorf and other big-money donors that has Farrell’s opponents connecting dots — it’s his policies and positions.
They’ve compared his pledge to ask the National Guard to enforce San Francisco drug laws to former President Donald Trump’s call to deploy members of the military to American streets. Farrell also suggested that The City offer tax breaks to large corporations, including those that agree to bring their workers to downtown offices in person at least four days a week.
