How to read these charts
Only a portion of the total vote count is released on election night. That’s because the vast majority of San Franciscans typically vote by mail, and they have until Election Day to put their ballots in the mailbox. Many valid ballots arrive at the elections office after Election Day.
Once there is enough data to make a race’s outcome clear, The Standard will project a winner in that race. A green check mark 
indicates a projected winner.
San Francisco uses ranked-choice voting for many of its local offices. Voters can name their first-choice candidate as well as a ranked list of other candidates in order of preference.
For each ranked-choice race, the chart displays the number of first-choice votes each candidate received as well as their vote total after the ranked-choice calculation is run.
Remember, the candidate with the most first-choice votes doesn’t always win a ranked-choice contest. Learn how ranked-choice voting works.
Other things to know:
- If an incumbent is running for reelection, that’s noted below that race’s results.
- In partisan elections, party affiliations are indicated in the charts with blue for Democrats and red for Republicans. However, San Francisco local elections are nonpartisan, so candidates’ political parties are not marked.
- Some San Francisco ballot measures require more than a simple majority of the vote to pass or need more votes than another ballot measure to go into effect. Victory thresholds are noted for each San Francisco measure.
