scott fAlso, let's be clear *why* a reform DA is unlikely to win in SF this year:
No, it is not (just) because polls show crime as a top issue and police and punitive measures as popular. If progressives united to push back on those narratives, we could change minds and have a good shot.
It's because spineless and self-interested progressive electeds fear those polls, refuse to lead, and won't back candidates like Ryan, that he has a very tough road.
