    I biked past Howard and 7th today and saw a platoon of police standing around after a driver killed an elderly woman and her dog. It looked like the driver was in one of the oversized SOMA West pickup trucks. SOMA West is a Community Benefit District created by the area's property owners.

    So tragic and completely unnecessary. A neighborhood this dense, this small, and already crisscrossed by dangerous roads does not need even more vehicles of that size.

    After more than two years of self-hosting my presence here, I remain enchanted by the #fedi. Still loving #snac and appreciate #Mangane more and more. I'm not hostage to corporate whims, maintenance is straightforward, and engagement is significant. A+

    @tito_swineflu@sfba.social @scott@carfree.city There are many longtime union members up there. They were able to buy their homes 20-30 years ago and continue doing their best to help their fellow union members. Same with Potrero, the Filmore and parts of the Avenues.

    I pay close attention to union household density during election season and Bernal is usually high up there. It's a neighborhood where the people canvassing usually live right there and it's dem club is particularly vibrant and effective because of it. Good folks. I know this season was challenging for some activists because they were working on Gaza issues at the same time.

    At this point in my life, having been well-acquainted with anarchist collectives, nonprofit boards, community groups, corporate management, labor unions and legislative bodies, I feel like one of the biggest barriers to progress is that people just don't know how to make collective decisions.

    I've meet groups of people with little formal education that can run circles around otherwise sophisticated, cosmopolitan urban decision makers when it comes to what to do, how and when. So many of the latter end up either traumatized by the experience and/or create hierarchies, whether formal or informal.

    My theory is that collective decision making is a skill that we've effectively lost in modern society. We're told what to do at home as kids, at school as students, and at work as adults and end up stunted. We can't express our desires, our needs, we can't dialogue and we can't compromise.

    The turnout rate for VBM ballots is super low in SF and all across the Bay. You have to go back to 2016 to see comparable numbers. We're just a bit higher than during the primary!

    It should be counted by tomorrow according to the published schedule.

    At E-10 (10 days until Election Day), the San Francisco Department of Elections is reporting 87,728 vote-by-mail ballots have been returned and accepted out of 520,843 issued—a return rate of just 16.8%. By this point in 2022, returns were already over 100k, and in 2020, they exceeded 300k.

    It is unclear to me how this will impact the final turnout. 2020 was an outlier due to the pandemic, and I assume that 2022 was also extraordinary. That leaves 2016 as the most recent "normal" election: 63.5% of the turnout that year was VBM.

    E-8 numbers are largely the same. 96,595 returned and accepted ballots, or about 18.5%. I hope to see a jump tomorrow, maybe enough to surpass the 100k electoral milestone. Still very, very low.

    The E-9 numbers are looking a bit better, but we still haven't crossed the 100k threshold citywide. 94,693 VBM ballots have been accepted out of 520,846 issued. A returned and accepted rate just shy of 18.2%.

    Surprisingly, the stats for District 1 aren't much higher despite the very contested supervisorial race, with only 18.8% VBM ballots having been returned and accepted. D1 Republicans have a 26.4% return rate.

    A decent jump this E-6 day. 23.0% of vote-by-mail ballots in San Francisco have been returned and accepted (120,115 out of 521,346 issued).

    In District 9, which includes the Mission, Bernal Heights and Portolá, the return and accepted rate still trails the citywide average despite having an open supervisorial race. Only 9,966 of 48,275 VMB ballots have been returned, or 20.6%.

    One week until Election Day and it's in E-7 that the number of returned and accepted ballots in SF finally surpasses 100k. 103,165 out of 521,166 is the current tally, or 19.8%.

    For District 5, the accepted rate is surprisingly lower, at 18.7% (8,465 out of 45,212). Shocking given the intense supervisorial race there.

    So many undecided voters.

    E-5 brings us 13,521 ballots more returned and accepted to 133,636 VBM ballots out of 521,422 issued in San Francisco. We are now at 25.6%. This is still low compared to the November 2022 election, when we already had around 200k VBM ballot returned at E-5.

    Unsurprisingly, the return and accepted rate in District 7 beats the citywide average. They're at 28.6%.

    Saturday before Election Day or E-3 saw a very sizable jump in the number of returned and accepted VBM ballots in San Francisco. We're now at 159,406 accepted ballots out 521,543 issued, or 30.6%.

    The number of challenged ballots is also increasing slowly. We're at 444 so far, nearly all of them because of signature issues.

    Just four days until Election Day (E-4) and we still haven't surpassed 150k returned and accepted VBM ballots in SF. Exact number is 146,692 out of 521,528 ballots issued (28.1% rate).

    I am not sure we will surpass the 2016 VBM turnout rate at this point.

    Election Day is tomorrow, but you wouldn't know it from the current return rates reported by the SF Department of Elections as of E-1. Only 185,105 of the 521,600 vote-by-mail ballots issued have been returned and accepted, a return rate of 35.5%.

    I predict the Department of Elections will receive an additional 80,000 to 100,000 vote-by-mail ballots postmarked by November 5 and arriving by November 12. This could mean any close local races may shift as these ballots are counted.

    We're two days before Election Day. Department of Elections is reporting only 172,119 ballots have been returned and accepted ballots out 521,580 issued on E-2. 33.0%. Not even a third. All the close races are still up in the air.

    It's Election Day and the Department of Elections has received and accepted less than 200k vote-by-mail ballots! I am very surprised. I expected it to be low, but not this low.

    Final numbers are 197,567 returned and accepted VBM ballots out of 521,646 issued. A return rate of 37.9%. All the races will be decided today.

    It is endlessly amusing and frustrating to me how "people" (mostly billionaire speculators and their acolytes) keep talking about "building decentralized social media" when the #fediverse is already a very real and very active decentralized social media. The challenge is that it cannot be monetized to their advantage and its structure is inherently anti-authoritarian, which doesn't center their own, very personal vision. So they will critique it and sideline it, but it isn't going anywhere.
