To be continued ...

Being a San Francisco progressive is always about living to fight another day. (At least, usually -- didn't work out that way for George Moscone and Harvey Milk.)

So on the morning after moderate Democrats succeeded in throwing out Chesa Boudin, I find myself contemplating again the map of yesterday's recall and the new 2022 supervisor districts.

Here's the Boudin recall map:

Here are the districts:

As I noted when these districts were enacted, the major implications were that the Boudin-supporting Inner Sunset and Cole Valley areas are now moved to Districts 7 and 8.

Meanwhile we await the next time the SFPD kills someone and people have to take to the streets to demand action from whoever London Breed installs ...

"Boudin-supporting Inner Sunset and Cole Valley areas are now moved to Districts 7 and 8."

Does that mean their power would be diluted?

Perhaps diluted, especially Inner Sunset. The districts are small enough so that really good candidates can win pretty much any of them. But the inevitable coalitions will be slightly different.
