Si se registró para votar a una edad temprana, tal vez su firma haya cambiado con el tiempo. O tal vez se registró para votar en el Departamento de Vehículos Motorizados (DMV, por sus siglas en inglés), y proporcionó su firma en una pantalla con un lápiz óptico, lo que no replica del todo cómo haría su firma con un bolígrafo en papel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Si se registró de esta manera, vea la firma que aparece en su licencia de conducir, o en su documento de identidad estatal, porque esa es la que quiere que coincida con la firma de su papeleta.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Incluso si no se ha registrado en el DMV, es muy probable que la firma que aparece en su licencia o identificación estatal más reciente sea la que debe emular. Esto se debe a que cuando se registre para votar en línea, la oficina electoral de su condado solicitará electrónicamente una copia de la firma que el DMV tiene actualmente de usted, y esta información se actualiza regularmente.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Para tranquilizarse aún más, debe saber que California no es un estado de “coincidencia exacta” y no exige que las firmas de los votantes repliquen al 100% la firma que está archivada.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>¿Y si no sé cuál es la firma “correcta” con la que debo firmar el sobre?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Si realmente le preocupa que la firma de su sobre no coincida con la firma con la que está registrado para votar, existen dos soluciones.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Primero, si es el 21 de octubre o antes, \u003ca href=\"https://registertovote.ca.gov/es-mx\">puede volver a registrarse para votar con su firma actual\u003c/a>, para asegurarse de que el estado tiene la firma más reciente en sus archivos.

Es lo que se llama “curar” una boleta.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Este sistema también se aplica cuando parece que un miembro de la familia de un votante puede haber firmado su papeleta, en lugar del votante.

Sólo tiene que asegurarse de que su firma sea la suya y coincida con la que está registrado para votar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los votantes discapacitados también pueden optar por utilizar el sistema de \u003ca href=\"https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/voting-resources/remote-accessible-vote-mail\">voto por correo accesible a distancia\u003c/a> para votar de forma privada e independiente en casa, utilizando su dispositivo de asistencia habitual en su computadora para llenar la papeleta en su pantalla y luego imprimirla y enviarla por correo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Todos los centros de votación de California también están equipados con una unidad de votación accesible. Ahí, los votantes invidentes o visión reducida, o que tengan una discapacidad que limite su destreza, podrán utilizar el dispositivo de ayuda de su preferencia que les permita votar de forma privada e independiente.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>¿Cómo puedo asegurarme de que mi voto por correo llegue a tiempo?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Recuerde que una de las principales razones por las que se descalifican las papeletas en las elecciones es porque los votantes las envían por correo demasiado tarde, demasiado tarde el mismo día de las elecciones (después de que el Servicio Postal ya haya recolectado lo que está en los buzones), o después del día de las elecciones.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Para que su papeleta sea contabilizada en estas elecciones, debe llevar el sello postal del día de las elecciones, el 5 de noviembre. Su papeleta tiene siete días para llegar a la oficina electoral de su condado.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Por lo tanto, es tan importante como siempre asegurarse de tener un plan para emitir su voto a tiempo, y si no va a votar en persona, eso significa asegurarse de llevar su papeleta a un buzón del Servicio Postal, a un buzón de votación seguro, en un centro de votación, o en la oficina electoral de su condado antes de que cierren las urnas el 5 de noviembre.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Otros errores comunes que debe tener en cuenta sobre su boleta …\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Asegúrese de llenar y firmar la papeleta y el sobre con su nombre.\u003c/strong> Es común ver a parejas o compañeros de piso confundir accidentalmente sus papeletas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Asegúrese de utilizar un bolígrafo negro o azul.\u003c/strong> Se lee mejor y no retrasa a los trabajadores cuando tienen que comprobar la intención del votante.

Si se registró para votar a una edad temprana, tal vez su firma haya cambiado con el tiempo. O tal vez se registró para votar en el Departamento de Vehículos Motorizados (DMV, por sus siglas en inglés), y proporcionó su firma en una pantalla con un lápiz óptico, lo que no replica del todo cómo haría su firma con un bolígrafo en papel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Si se registró de esta manera, vea la firma que aparece en su licencia de conducir, o en su documento de identidad estatal, porque esa es la que quiere que coincida con la firma de su papeleta.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Incluso si no se ha registrado en el DMV, es muy probable que la firma que aparece en su licencia o identificación estatal más reciente sea la que debe emular. Esto se debe a que cuando se registre para votar en línea, la oficina electoral de su condado solicitará electrónicamente una copia de la firma que el DMV tiene actualmente de usted, y esta información se actualiza regularmente.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Para tranquilizarse aún más, debe saber que California no es un estado de “coincidencia exacta” y no exige que las firmas de los votantes repliquen al 100% la firma que está archivada.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>¿Y si no sé cuál es la firma “correcta” con la que debo firmar el sobre?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Si realmente le preocupa que la firma de su sobre no coincida con la firma con la que está registrado para votar, existen dos soluciones.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Primero, si es el 21 de octubre o antes, \u003ca href=\"https://registertovote.ca.gov/es-mx\">puede volver a registrarse para votar con su firma actual\u003c/a>, para asegurarse de que el estado tiene la firma más reciente en sus archivos. Si se vuelve a registrar después del 21 de octubre, tendrá que completar el proceso de \u003ca href=\"https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/voter-registration/same-day-reg\">registro de electores en el mismo día\u003c/a> (también conocido como “voto condicional”) y solicitar su papeleta en persona en la oficina electoral de su condado o en el centro de votación.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>En 2021, Kim Alexander, presidenta de la fundación no partidista \u003ca href=\"https://www.calvoter.org/\">California Voter Foundation\u003c/a>, nos dijo que hay otra solución si le preocupa su firma: Si puede, vaya a votar en persona.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eso es porque la firma va sólo en el sobre de su boleta, y si usted está votando en persona, no hay sobre, porque esa boleta luego va directamente a la urna sin necesidad de ese sobre en absoluto.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Yo ya envié mi boleta, pero ahora me siento nervioso de cómo escribí mi firma. ¿Qué hago?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>No se preocupe: Existe todo un sistema para ayudarle a corregir su error.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Si la oficina electoral de su condado detecta un error de firma en su papeleta, se pondrán en contacto con usted por correo para verificarlo y trabajar con usted para corregirlo, de modo que su papeleta pueda ser contada después de todo. Es lo que se llama “curar” una boleta.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Este sistema también se aplica cuando parece que un miembro de la familia de un votante puede haber firmado su papeleta, en lugar del votante.

"content": "\u003cp>COSTA MESA — Here, along the sandy shores of Orange County, is where the Democrats’ 2018 ‘Blue Wave’ first made landfall. Six years later, California’s coastal 47th Congressional District will once again play a key role in deciding control of Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district, which includes the cities of Irvine, Huntington Beach, Newport Beach and Laguna Beach, embodies the shift of socially liberal, suburban voters away from the Republican Party since the election of Donald Trump. However, streaks of conservatism remain in the electorate, and Democrats will seek victory here without the star power of the district’s incumbent congresswoman, Rep. Katie Porter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Among the competitive districts in California this year, it’s the only open seat,” said Eric McGhee, a senior fellow at the Public Policy Institute of California.[aside postID='elections_1950' label='2024 Voter Guide: California, Bay Area and National General Election' hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/80/2024/09/Aside-California-Voter-Guide-2024-General-Election-1200x1200-1.png' herolink='https://www.kqed.org/voterguide']Instead of seeking a fourth term, Porter ran for the U.S. Senate and placed third in the March primary. Now, Democrats hope that Dave Min, a state senator, will be able to replicate Porter’s success against Republican Scott Baugh, a former state Assembly member who narrowly lost to Porter in 2022.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both candidates face significant hurdles: Baugh’s ties to Trump and some of the party’s conservative positions could turn off moderate voters, while Min must overcome a damaging DUI arrest that remains on voters’ minds. In this closely divided district, even small shifts in voter preferences could be decisive — Republicans currently hold a slim registration advantage of just 119 voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s a more socially liberal bent to the district,” said political consultant Erica Kwiatkowski Nielsen, who managed Porter’s 2018 campaign. “But there is that traditional conservative values that you find in Orange County that people still adhere to … there’s a reason that [even] after Trump got elected and after 2018, this remains a battleground.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 2022 midterm results reflect the district’s split. Porter narrowly defeated Baugh by 3 percentage points despite outspending him significantly. In the same election, voters in the 47th supported Republican Brian Dahle for governor over Democratic incumbent Gavin Newsom. However, a ballot measure to enshrine reproductive rights into the California constitution won 61% of the vote here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The one thing that you’ve seen, which I think is really a part of the reason why we’re going to continue to see success for Democrats to continue to compete here, is the issue of choice and reproductive freedom,” Nielsen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Porter, Min is a former professor at the UC Irvine School of Law. He was elected to the state Senate in 2020. During his first term, Min largely voted with the Democratic supermajority, particularly on social issues. He’s been more likely to break with his caucus on legislation like rent protections and he recently declined to vote on a Newsom-backed bill regulating oil refineries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12009934\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12009934\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241017-Baugh-Min-KQED.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241017-Baugh-Min-KQED.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241017-Baugh-Min-KQED-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241017-Baugh-Min-KQED-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241017-Baugh-Min-KQED-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241017-Baugh-Min-KQED-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241017-Baugh-Min-KQED-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Scott Baugh (left) and Dave Min. \u003ccite>(Tom Williams/CQ-Roll Call, Inc via Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“I’ve been strong on women’s reproductive rights, on gun safety, on climate,” Min told KQED in an interview. “And you’ll note that the Republican Party’s not attacking me on those issues, right? Because they’re popular issues. I think I reflect the values of this district.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Min and his allies have focused their attacks on Baugh’s stance on reproductive rights. While Min favors national protections for abortion, Baugh described it as a “state-by-state issue.” His current stance closely aligns with Trump’s — which, in the wake of the Supreme Court’s \u003cem>Dobbs \u003c/em>decision, has led to wide abortion protections in California but outright bans in states such as Louisiana and Tennessee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t believe Congress should be involved in banning abortions for the states,” Baugh told KQED. “The state of California has enshrined in its constitution women’s reproductive health, and so the federal government shouldn’t come over and overrule the will of the voters in California — I wouldn’t let them do that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baugh’s staunch support for Trump presents another challenge for Republicans: Voters in the 47th District supported Joe Biden over Trump by a 54%–44% margin in 2020. To win, Baugh will need support from ticket splitters, who may reject Trump but still consider voting for a Republican for Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What you have is some people just don’t like his style in this community,” Baugh said of Trump. “But they still don’t want a liberal running the U.S. Congress and continuing on our debt and open borders.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baugh spent nearly a decade as the chairman of the Orange County GOP. He has pledged that his top priority in Congress will be fighting the fentanyl epidemic, tying it to border security and homelessness. He has also spoken about his brother’s death from a fentanyl overdose.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He wants to secure our borders, he wants to help with the homelessness crisis, and he has conservative values,” said Stefanie Barela, a Baugh supporter in Irvine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Min’s problems are more personal: He was arrested in May 2023 for drunk driving and was sentenced to probation after pleading no contest. During the March primary campaign, fellow Democrat Joanna Weiss hammered Min with ads about the DUI, and the message seems to have stuck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A survey conducted in September by Cal State Long Beach, the University of Southern California and Cal Poly Pomona asked likely voters in the 47th District to respond with words that come to mind when they think of Min. The top response: “DUI/Drunk/Drunk driving/Drunk driver.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was the worst mistake of my life, and I want to be clear — it was not characteristic of who I am, of anything I’d ever done before,” Min said. “I will never do anything like that again. You have my word.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Min and Democratic groups are hoping to counter the damage with a flurry of ads hitting Baugh over a $47,900 fine he paid in the late 1990s for violating state campaign finance law.[aside label=\"Related Stories\" postID=\"news_12008793,forum_2010101907100,forum_2010101892849\"]Campaign reports released this week show Min spending $2.6 million between July and September, leaving $915,805 on hand. Baugh spent $1 million but has $2.2 million left for the closing stretch. Outside groups have spent more than $10 million in the general election, to the tune of $6.2 million in favor of Min and $3.9 million aiding Baugh.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vice President Kamala Harris’ ascendance to the top of the ticket adds a new wrinkle to the race. The CSU Long Beach-USC-Cal Poly Pomona poll found Harris lagging behind Biden’s 2020 levels of support in the district — but Min credits Harris for a rise in campaign donations and volunteer enthusiasm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris could help Democrats solve a key challenge in the district: turning out voters in and around UC Irvine — particularly students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The youngest voters in District 47 were much less likely to vote in the midterm than they were in the 2020 election,” McGhee said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nathan Bui, a UC Irvine student and communications director with the Orange County Young Democrats, agreed that the student vote would be crucial for Min and said Democratic campaigns have an opportunity to increase their margins if they engage young voters on issues like college affordability and climate change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We know as Democrats that young voters can be a reliable voting bloc, but we are not catered to,” Bui said. “When campaigns make the effort to outreach to us, ask us questions and get us engaged, that makes us believe in a candidate and believe in what they’re doing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Six years later, California’s coastal 47th Congressional District will once again play a key role in deciding control of Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district, which includes the cities of Irvine, Huntington Beach, Newport Beach and Laguna Beach, embodies the shift of socially liberal, suburban voters away from the Republican Party since the election of Donald Trump. However, streaks of conservatism remain in the electorate, and Democrats will seek victory here without the star power of the district’s incumbent congresswoman, Rep. Katie Porter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Among the competitive districts in California this year, it’s the only open seat,” said Eric McGhee, a senior fellow at the Public Policy Institute of California.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Now, Democrats hope that Dave Min, a state senator, will be able to replicate Porter’s success against Republican Scott Baugh, a former state Assembly member who narrowly lost to Porter in 2022.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both candidates face significant hurdles: Baugh’s ties to Trump and some of the party’s conservative positions could turn off moderate voters, while Min must overcome a damaging DUI arrest that remains on voters’ minds. In this closely divided district, even small shifts in voter preferences could be decisive — Republicans currently hold a slim registration advantage of just 119 voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s a more socially liberal bent to the district,” said political consultant Erica Kwiatkowski Nielsen, who managed Porter’s 2018 campaign. “But there is that traditional conservative values that you find in Orange County that people still adhere to … there’s a reason that [even] after Trump got elected and after 2018, this remains a battleground.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 2022 midterm results reflect the district’s split. Porter narrowly defeated Baugh by 3 percentage points despite outspending him significantly. In the same election, voters in the 47th supported Republican Brian Dahle for governor over Democratic incumbent Gavin Newsom. However, a ballot measure to enshrine reproductive rights into the California constitution won 61% of the vote here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The one thing that you’ve seen, which I think is really a part of the reason why we’re going to continue to see success for Democrats to continue to compete here, is the issue of choice and reproductive freedom,” Nielsen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Porter, Min is a former professor at the UC Irvine School of Law. He was elected to the state Senate in 2020. During his first term, Min largely voted with the Democratic supermajority, particularly on social issues. He’s been more likely to break with his caucus on legislation like rent protections and he recently declined to vote on a Newsom-backed bill regulating oil refineries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12009934\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12009934\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241017-Baugh-Min-KQED.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241017-Baugh-Min-KQED.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241017-Baugh-Min-KQED-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241017-Baugh-Min-KQED-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241017-Baugh-Min-KQED-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241017-Baugh-Min-KQED-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241017-Baugh-Min-KQED-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Scott Baugh (left) and Dave Min. \u003ccite>(Tom Williams/CQ-Roll Call, Inc via Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“I’ve been strong on women’s reproductive rights, on gun safety, on climate,” Min told KQED in an interview. “And you’ll note that the Republican Party’s not attacking me on those issues, right? Because they’re popular issues. I think I reflect the values of this district.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Min and his allies have focused their attacks on Baugh’s stance on reproductive rights. While Min favors national protections for abortion, Baugh described it as a “state-by-state issue.” His current stance closely aligns with Trump’s — which, in the wake of the Supreme Court’s \u003cem>Dobbs \u003c/em>decision, has led to wide abortion protections in California but outright bans in states such as Louisiana and Tennessee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t believe Congress should be involved in banning abortions for the states,” Baugh told KQED. “The state of California has enshrined in its constitution women’s reproductive health, and so the federal government shouldn’t come over and overrule the will of the voters in California — I wouldn’t let them do that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baugh’s staunch support for Trump presents another challenge for Republicans: Voters in the 47th District supported Joe Biden over Trump by a 54%–44% margin in 2020. To win, Baugh will need support from ticket splitters, who may reject Trump but still consider voting for a Republican for Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He has pledged that his top priority in Congress will be fighting the fentanyl epidemic, tying it to border security and homelessness. He has also spoken about his brother’s death from a fentanyl overdose.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He wants to secure our borders, he wants to help with the homelessness crisis, and he has conservative values,” said Stefanie Barela, a Baugh supporter in Irvine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Min’s problems are more personal: He was arrested in May 2023 for drunk driving and was sentenced to probation after pleading no contest. During the March primary campaign, fellow Democrat Joanna Weiss hammered Min with ads about the DUI, and the message seems to have stuck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A survey conducted in September by Cal State Long Beach, the University of Southern California and Cal Poly Pomona asked likely voters in the 47th District to respond with words that come to mind when they think of Min. The top response: “DUI/Drunk/Drunk driving/Drunk driver.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was the worst mistake of my life, and I want to be clear — it was not characteristic of who I am, of anything I’d ever done before,” Min said. “I will never do anything like that again. You have my word.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Min and Democratic groups are hoping to counter the damage with a flurry of ads hitting Baugh over a $47,900 fine he paid in the late 1990s for violating state campaign finance law.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The city’s Black community faces disproportionate challenges, including having the lowest household income and lowest rate of homeownership among all racial groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several supporters spoke during the meeting’s public comment in favor of continuing the funding. One Black resident said she was able to successfully launch her own consulting firm with the program’s support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Others criticized the way city officials and media have focused scrutiny on the program, which also funds food security, after-school and extracurricular activities for youth and other programs for the Black community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You have villainized the black community through DKI,” said Phelicia Jones, a longtime civil rights and community advocate for the Bayview-Hunters Point neighborhood. “People are scared about how the Chronicle will see them and scared how the Standard will see them, and it’s not fair to the Black community. This is a smear campaign against Mayor Breed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tugbenyoh shared several changes that the Human Rights Commission has introduced following Davis’ resignation. Those include bringing on a financial support team from the Controller’s Office to assist with accounting oversight and suspending the commission’s Authority to make purchases without a competitive bid process, so all procurement must now go through the Office of Contract Administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tugbenyoh also shared that the Human Rights Commission has still not selected anyone to temporarily oversee the Dream Keeper Initiative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am losing sleep over getting this money out. I know that community organizations have been in a bit of a holding pattern for a number of months,” he said. “There certainly is urgency on my part and my staff’s part to get these funds out.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>An earlier version of this story said Thursday’s hearing was called by Supervisors Dean Preston and Aaron Peskin. It has been updated to reflect that the hearing was called by Supervisors Ahsha Safaí and Aaron Peskin. It has also been updated to reflect that the mayor, not the city as a whole, paused funding for the Dream Keeper Initiative.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

The city’s Black community faces disproportionate challenges, including having the lowest household income and lowest rate of homeownership among all racial groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several supporters spoke during the meeting’s public comment in favor of continuing the funding. One Black resident said she was able to successfully launch her own consulting firm with the program’s support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Others criticized the way city officials and media have focused scrutiny on the program, which also funds food security, after-school and extracurricular activities for youth and other programs for the Black community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You have villainized the black community through DKI,” said Phelicia Jones, a longtime civil rights and community advocate for the Bayview-Hunters Point neighborhood. “People are scared about how the Chronicle will see them and scared how the Standard will see them, and it’s not fair to the Black community. This is a smear campaign against Mayor Breed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tugbenyoh shared several changes that the Human Rights Commission has introduced following Davis’ resignation. Those include bringing on a financial support team from the Controller’s Office to assist with accounting oversight and suspending the commission’s Authority to make purchases without a competitive bid process, so all procurement must now go through the Office of Contract Administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tugbenyoh also shared that the Human Rights Commission has still not selected anyone to temporarily oversee the Dream Keeper Initiative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am losing sleep over getting this money out. I know that community organizations have been in a bit of a holding pattern for a number of months,” he said. “There certainly is urgency on my part and my staff’s part to get these funds out.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>An earlier version of this story said Thursday’s hearing was called by Supervisors Dean Preston and Aaron Peskin. It has been updated to reflect that the hearing was called by Supervisors Ahsha Safaí and Aaron Peskin. It has also been updated to reflect that the mayor, not the city as a whole, paused funding for the Dream Keeper Initiative.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>A new Donald Trump campaign ad that blames then-San Francisco District Attorney \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/kamala-harris\">Kamala Harris\u003c/a> for the 2007 killing of an Oakland journalist is “\u003ca href=\"https://x.com/bobbutler7/status/1846221901708083261\">low and lacks context\u003c/a>,” according to reporters who covered the murder and called the ad factually inaccurate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chauncey Bailey was the editor of the\u003cem> Oakland Post\u003c/em>, a Black newspaper in the East Bay, when he was shot and killed on his walk to work, targeted by a company he planned to release a report on. Trump’s latest ad suggests that the man who shot him — who was previously incarcerated for an unrelated assault — was only out of jail because Harris had released him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://x.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1846054604556865782\">The ad\u003c/a> opens with footage that appears to be of Bailey’s body lying covered on 14th Street in downtown Oakland. A narrator says that his face isn’t viewable because it was “blown away” by a “repeat criminal” — Devaughndre Broussard — thanks to Harris’ “liberal” leadership.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The statement isn’t true, according to Thomas Peele, who released the book \u003cem>Killing the Messenger\u003c/em> investigating Bailey’s murder in 2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Broussard had been convicted of a previous assault on a Muni bus in 2005 after he was charged with robbery, battery and assault with a deadly weapon by a prosecutor in Harris’ office. He took a plea deal, which Peele says was typical for such crimes, and was sentenced by a judge to one year in prison followed by probation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“More than 95% of [criminal cases] are in plea bargain,” Peele says. “That’s what happened. He got out. This is not a case that ever reached the level of the district attorney herself.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After he was released, Broussard, then 19, needed work. One of his friends connected him to Yusuf Bey, who owned a chain of bakeries called Your Black Muslim Bakery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A friend of his … had been Mr. Bey’s cellmate — also in jail in San Francisco for a couple of months — and told Broussard he knew of this bakery in Oakland that hired Black people who were in dire financial straits, who needed work,” Peele says. “And Mr. Broussard went there and was hired.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12006200 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/Project2025Getty1-1020x680.jpg']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bey called the business a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/28152/chauncey-bailey-murder-trial-a-primer\">model of economic self-reliance\u003c/a> in Oakland’s Black community, according to previous KQED reporting. It was also a front for his polygamist cult that had years of allegations of rape, assault and fraud, according to \u003cem>Oaklandside \u003c/em>\u003ca href=\"https://oaklandside.org/2024/10/15/trump-uses-murder-of-oakland-journalist-in-dishonest-attack-ad/\">reporting\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Bailey began to investigate Your Black Muslim Bakery’s criminal activity, one of Bey’s sons, Yusuf Bey IV, found out and ordered Broussard and another employee to kill him to prevent the story from going public. Bey IV had taken over the business after his father died in 2003.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Broussard originally admitted to killing Bailey on his own, but he recanted and eventually aided the defense in convicting Bey IV and the other man present at the murder. He pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter and is serving a 25-year sentence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The killing and missteps by Oakland police led a group of Bay Area journalists to form the \u003ca href=\"https://chaunceybaileyproject.org/\">Chauncey Bailey Project\u003c/a> to investigate the story. Peele was a member.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peele noted that the killing doesn’t seem to have had anything to do with Harris, who has released her own campaign ads touting her \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12000397/what-9-cases-from-kamala-harris-past-say-about-her-record-as-a-california-prosecutor\">history as a prosecutor\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/thomas_peele/status/1846297747554816297\">post on social media platform X\u003c/a> after the ad was released, Peele called it “factually wrong” for Trump to suggest that prosecutorial leniency by Harris led to Bailey’s murder. “Dre Broussard beat a man, pled guilty [and was] sentenced to a year in jail,” he says. “If Dre had still been in jail on [Aug. 2, 2007], 2 other [Your Black Muslim Bakery] hitters would’ve carried out the killing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/author/adahlstromeckman\">Azul Dahlstrom-Eckman\u003c/a> contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

We are in the midst of an active and ongoing investigation, and as our police department uncovers the truth, that truth will be shared with the community,” the Council statement said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Given the appalling nature of Omar Torres’ own words and the allegations against him, we believe that he has lost the trust of the community and is no longer able to effectively serve the residents of District 3,” the statement continued. “As his own words call into question his ability to lead and make decisions on the behalf of the community, we are calling on him to resign.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Torres, a first-term councilmember who previously served as a council staffer and a community college district board member, has largely withdrawn from public view since the allegations against him were first revealed earlier this month, and further details were made public in the affidavit supporting a search warrant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The investigation is ongoing, police officials said, and no criminal charges have been filed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Torres has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He has no intention of resigning, he intends to continue fully serving his constituency,” his attorney, Nelson McElmurry, said Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He absolutely wants to address the public concern surrounding the bits and pieces of information that have been released throughout the course of the investigation,” he added, emphasizing that much of what has been reported thus far has been “speculation” and doesn’t include full context.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He would rather wait until the investigation is completed and then address the issue, as well as responding to everyone’s questions regarding the details,” McElmurry said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later Wednesday, Mahan told KQED there is a higher bar for elected officials. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t believe he is fit to lead and represent our community. I was sick to my stomach as I read some of the text messages in the affidavit,” Mahan said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mahan said the case is a big distraction for Torres and for a city trying to address major civic issues of homelessness, housing and crime. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He’s distracted by this. I’ve gone to community meetings over the last week in his district where he’s been unable to attend. There’s no way to get around the fact that this is going to take a lot of his time and attention and he needs to focus on the rest of that process,” Mahan said. “But in the meantime, the residents of District Three deserve strong representation, a leader who they trust and progress on the issues that affect their daily lives.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"more on San José\" tag=\"san-jose-city-council\"]The investigation apparently started when \u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2024/10/03/san-jose-police-warrant-city-councilmember-omar-torres/\">Torres contacted San José police\u003c/a> on Aug. 29 to report that he was being extorted by a 21-year-old man in Chicago named Terry Beeks, with whom, investigators later said, Torres had an “online sexual relationship.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Torres told police that during their relationship over the course of the past two years, he sent Beeks “nude photos and videos of himself, some of which include his face,” investigators said, after which Beeks demanded money, threatening to release nude photos or videos if he didn’t pay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Torres admitted that this extortion had been going on for a long time,” the affidavit said, stating that he had paid Beeks a total of roughly $22,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Torres showed police investigators his messages with Beeks, as well as screenshots of receipts with payments he made to him. He also told investigators that Beeks had a history of harassing his partner and his Council staff members when his demands were ignored.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Investigators then interviewed Beeks and seized his electronics, determining from messages on those devices that it appeared “Torres was paying Beeks for masturbation videos and nude photos” and “paying to Facetime with Beeks while he masturbated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2024/10/15/condemns-councilmember-sex-crime-investigation-minors/\">During their ongoing text correspondence, \u003c/a>Torres, in February 2022, sent Beeks a photo of a boy who he referred to as his “autistic son,” saying he was 11 years old and that he was “like daddy lol he already has a big penis haha,” according to text exchanges listed in the affidavit.
