Help lobby against anti-independent bias at SF Elections Dept.! [2 Attachments]

I would like to report on some activism I've recently been engaged with here in San Francisco on behalf of the LPSF, and ask your help in lobbying the local authorities and/or spreading the word to encourage others to do the same. I believe this would also make a good story for LP News or California Freedom, particularly since I just learned yesterday that we won at least a partial, if quiet victory!

  If you can spare a couple minutes, please write to the SF Ethics Commission <ethics.commission@sfgov.org>, and the SF Elections Commission <elections.commission@sfgov.org>, and let them know that you consider this a serious matter which you would like them to investigate, as it indicates partisan bias on the part of person(s) involved in running our elections. You can also write to the head of the Elections Department who authorized the inappropriate visuals in question, at <John.Arntz@sfgov.org> .

P.S. - You can watch my testimony yesterday before the San Francisco Ethics Commission online here:

  I appear near the end of the video, starting around 3:33:55, but you may also find some of the public comment that took place toward the beginning of the meeting worth watching if you enjoy seeing members of the public dress down public officials and stand up for their rights. :slight_smile:

Coincidentally or not, the San Francisco Elections Department [or individual(s) therein – many of the local Elections staff have historically been friendly, responsive, and fair toward us in my experience] played another dirty trick this season, as noted by Richard Winger in the current Ballot Access News with a link to an article in the California Policy Center newsletter written by LPSF Chair Aubrey Freedman and published courtesy of another local Libertarian, Marc Joffe:
