She has helped craft messaging around wildfires, the coronavirus pandemic, climate change and many other stories. She has also brought KQED Science to new platforms such as Reddit’s Ask Me Anything series. Prior to joining KQED Science, Amanda spent seven years as an engagement producer with Forum, KQED’s daily live call-in show. She got her start in radio at KALW's weekly call in show, City Visions, before going on to an internship and stint at NPR's Talk of the Nation.\r\n\r\nPrior to journalism, Amanda taught English at Lowell High School.

Those inspections would have supplemented the checks currently carried out by the California Highway Patrol.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The same committee also passed AB 1574 from David Chiu, another Democratic assemblyman from San Francisco, which would help the California Public Utilities Commission identify buses to be inspected. A third bill related to tour bus safety, SB 812, authored by state Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, was approved by the Senate Committee on Energy, Utilities and Communications on Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Local Inspection Proposal Dropped\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The key provision of AB 1677 was removed after the union representing CHP officers expressed opposition at a hearing last week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If there's additional need for additional inspections it should be done by the CHP,\" said Aaron Read, a lobbyist for the California Association of Highway Patrolman. \"Local agencies don't want this. They are strapped, they are hammered with work.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, interested cities and counties will have to contract with the CHP for further inspections, which Ting says will not be duplicative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"At any given time, only about 30 percent of the buses on the road are getting inspections annually,\" Ting said. \"So it's not about getting those buses that are inspected additional inspection. It's about getting those 70 percent inspected.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Supervisors Still Support CHP Partnership \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bills were introduced by the three Bay Area legislators after the Nov. 13 \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/11/13/injuries-reported-in-toursit-bus-crash-near-s-f-s-union-square\" target=\"_blank\">tour bus crash\u003c/a> in Union Square that injured 19 people.

Jerry Hill's bill focuses on the current CHP bus inspection program, prioritizing inspections of operators with historically low ratings, and raising inspection fees that bus carriers pay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The goal is for the CHP to focus more of their efforts and limited resources on problematic and unsafe bus operators,\" Hill said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Assemblyman David Chiu's AB 1574 aims to improve communication between state regulators to identify \"ghost buses.\" That's the term given to buses registered with the Department of Motor Vehicles but not the California Public Utilities Commission, the agency that oversees charter buses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill would require the DMV to notify the CPUC when a bus is registered and for the agencies to share identifying information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All three tour bus safety bills now advance to the Senate and Assembly appropriations committees.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Forty-two years ago Harvey made a similar call when he lost his own race for the 17th Assembly district by fewer then 4,000 votes. It was one of many races that Harvey lost, in fact he was only a Supervisor for 11 months before his murder. And yet the message that is most associated with him is that of hope. Right now my heart is filled with hope.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is a time of great change in our city. And through this campaign we have sent a powerful message that the people of San Francisco are alive, spirited, and ready to fight for our values and way of life.

We had a positive conversation and agreed to work together in the future for the good of San Francisco. While the race was often challenging, I applaud Supervisor Campos and all of his supporters on the passion and hard work that they put into the campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I am truly humbled to be elected by the people of San Francisco to serve in the State Assembly. I ran for this office because I want to fight to make sure that Sacramento delivers real results for the people of our city on the challenges of our time - from housing affordability and education to transportation and the environment. For six years, I have been working to make City Hall more effective by bringing all sides together to get things done for all San Franciscans. I am honored that the voters have supported our vision of continuing to move San Francisco forward.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update, 4:45 p.m. Thursday (Nov. 6)\u003c/strong>: David Chiu's lead over David Campos has continued to expand.

A department spokesman said about 9,600 of those dropped-off, mail-in ballots were counted today, and the provisional ballots won't likely be touched until this weekend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>University of San Francisco politics professor Corey Cook said those provisional ballots may favor a Campos comeback.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The question is, will they favor him enough to overcome the current gap,\" Cook said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Original Post\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>David Campos and David Chiu are locked in a dead heat in the race to replace Tom Ammiano in San Francisco's 17th Assembly District. San Francisco election officials say they still have tens of thousands of absentee and provisional ballots to count. Both the Chiu and Campos campaigns say they are \"cautiously optimistic.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The latest returns showed Chiu leading by nearly 2,400 votes. \"We are still obviously going to be waiting for the returns but at the end of the day all of you have every single day renewed my hope in what San Francisco is about,\" Chiu told his supporters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meantime, Campos says he is still holding out hope. \"We're optimistic that we're going to pull it off. I think that, you know, it's all about the turnout on election day and I know that we did an amazing job in getting people out,\" Campos told KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Campos says he was expecting Chiu to grab an early lead as results came in on election night, but he is feeling optimistic about his current position.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think we understand that the early absentees are ballots that historically would go for a candidate like David Chiu,\" he said. \"But this is going to be decided by turnout, and it comes down to what the turnout on Election Day is. And we feel very confident about that … keep watching.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>New results are expected by 4 p.m. Wednesday, but election officials say 42,000 vote-by-mail ballots and 11,000 provisional ballots will still need to be counted. They plan to work through the weekend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's been an ugly contest, with independent committees \u003ca href=\"http://blog.sfgate.com/cityinsider/2014/10/20/independent-groups-hit-campos-chiu-hard-in-assembly-race/\">launching aggressive mail campaigns\u003c/a> attacking both candidates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Campos and Chiu, both 44, have spent six years on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors and are lawyers who attended Harvard Law School.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the two Democrats have a lot in common, and would likely vote along similar party lines in Sacramento, they have very different styles and approaches, said Corey Cook, a University of San Francisco political science professor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>How each has responded to the consequences of the city's economic boom, he said, became the lightning rod issue in the race.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A key differentiation are these very local issues around development, gentrification, displacement, renter protection.

Forty-two years ago Harvey made a similar call when he lost his own race for the 17th Assembly district by fewer then 4,000 votes. It was one of many races that Harvey lost, in fact he was only a Supervisor for 11 months before his murder. And yet the message that is most associated with him is that of hope. Right now my heart is filled with hope.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is a time of great change in our city. And through this campaign we have sent a powerful message that the people of San Francisco are alive, spirited, and ready to fight for our values and way of life. We made clear that we love this City, refuse to be pushed out and are a force to be reckoned with.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>And now, \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/davidchiu.sf/posts/10152895294033081\" target=\"_blank\">an excerpt from Chiu's message\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>David Campos called me earlier tonight to concede in our race to represent California's 17th Assembly District. We had a positive conversation and agreed to work together in the future for the good of San Francisco. While the race was often challenging, I applaud Supervisor Campos and all of his supporters on the passion and hard work that they put into the campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I am truly humbled to be elected by the people of San Francisco to serve in the State Assembly. I ran for this office because I want to fight to make sure that Sacramento delivers real results for the people of our city on the challenges of our time - from housing affordability and education to transportation and the environment. For six years, I have been working to make City Hall more effective by bringing all sides together to get things done for all San Franciscans. I am honored that the voters have supported our vision of continuing to move San Francisco forward.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update, 4:45 p.m. Thursday (Nov. 6)\u003c/strong>: David Chiu's lead over David Campos has continued to expand. Chiu now leads by 3.78 percent or 3,771 votes. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update, 4:10 p.m. Wednesday (Nov. 5)\u003c/strong>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

We don’t want to do that. David wants his registry to be essentially private.

Many property owners dislike having tenants rent via Airbnb because of concerns about security, and wear and tear.

And while this may be a first step in assuaging critics, it probably won't be the last. It's no secret that \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfbos.org/index.aspx?page=2105\" target=\"_blank\">San Francisco Board of Supervisors President David Chiu\u003c/a> is working on regulations for short-term rental companies like Airbnb, but on Wednesday a representative from Chiu's office offered more specifics about what those regulations will likely include.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During an appearance on \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/a/forum/R201404090900\" target=\"_blank\">KQED's \"Forum\u003c/a>,\" Judson True, a legislative aide to Chiu, said that while details are still being worked out, \"the general principles are getting close.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of those general principles is protecting the city's housing stock. To that end, True hinted that regulations will aim to keep housing units primarily housing city residents, not tourists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Permanent residency is really, really important,\" said True. \"For a short-term rental to be legal, it should have to be a permanent residence for someone.

To that end, True hinted that regulations will aim to keep housing units primarily housing city residents, not tourists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Permanent residency is really, really important,\" said True. \"For a short-term rental to be legal, it should have to be a permanent residence for someone. That’s really a core concept.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>True also said that a cap on the number of days a unit could be let as a short-term rental is \"crucial.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The city's \u003ca href=\"http://library.municode.com/HTML/14130/level1/AXIII.html#AXIII_s13.101.5\">charter states\u003c/a> that in the event of a mayoral vacancy, the Board of Supervisors chooses an interim until an election is held:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>If the Office of Mayor becomes vacant because of death, resignation, recall, permanent disability or the inability to carry out the responsibilities of the office, the President of the Board of Supervisors shall become Acting Mayor and shall serve until a successor is appointed by the Board of Supervisors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Any person filling a vacancy pursuant to subsection (a) or (b) of this Section shall serve until a successor is selected at the next election occurring not less than 120 days after the vacancy...\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\n\u003cp>Any successor needs six votes on the Board, no easy task, and speculation about just who will emerge as the consensus candidate has gone on for many months. In May, former mayoral candidate and progressive heartthrob Matt Gonzalez was \u003ca href=\"http://www.fogcityjournal.com/wordpress/2012/gonzalez-being-considered-for-interim-mayoral-post/\">rumored\u003c/a> to be in the running. That never panned out, and in June, the Bay Citizen wrote \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/18/us/18bcboard.html\">this piece\u003c/a> pegging David Chiu, the Board president, and Aaron Peskin, San Francisco Democratic Party Chairman, as the frontrunners.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\nMr. Chiu, 40, would be San Francisco’s first Chinese-American mayor. He was elected board president on his first day in office in 2008 thanks largely to Mr. Peskin, his predecessor as president...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mr. Chiu is popular and smart, with a firm grasp of policy issues and a centrist’s disposition; Mr. Peskin has been known to refer to him jokingly as “the Chinese Obama,” aides say. Mr. Chiu is often willing to break with his progressive allies and seek compromises with moderate colleagues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 46-year-old Mr. Peskin, on the other hand, is widely described as a bare-knuckled powerbroker, a capable operative who has turned the Democratic Party in San Francisco into a solidly progressive political machine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Who has put together a majority on that board before? David Chiu and Aaron Peskin,” said Eric Jaye, a former political strategist for Mr. Newsom. “You need to look at those two as front-runners, without a doubt.”\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A couple of months ago, a no-holds-barred realpolitik \u003ca href=\"http://abledartsbathroomwall.yuku.com/topic/3779\">analysis\u003c/a> posted on The Wall, a political forum on San Francisco politics, figured Peskin as the politico-most-likely to fill a vacated mayoralty. \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\nPeskin is the mostly likely to be appointed mayor by the other Guys. He started out well in politics as a good-government type.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, he got carried away with his own power. He developed a nasty habit of getting drunk after dinner and calling public officials at home night, loudly berating them with slurred obscenities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After being termed out as a supe, he successfully enlisted his cronies to orchestrate a take-over of the Democratic County Central Committee. They pushed out the good-natured, openly-gay Scott Wiener as chair and put Peskin in his place. Since then, Peskin has created a well oiled machine whose purpose is to make himself mayor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He has expressed his style of politics with the infamous Peskin principle: “Payback is a bitch.” This is the motto of every political machine. He first snarled these words at a woman sitting in a wheelchair.\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Just 11 days ago, however, the Bay Citizen reported on Peskin's \u003ca href=\"http://www.baycitizen.org/sf-supervisors-race/story/left-wing-shudders-its-presumed-leader/\">waning influence\u003c/a>, stating that a string of political setbacks has revealed that his \"reach seems to have been overstated.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\nFour days ago, the Bay Area Reporter named state Senator Mark Leno and Assemblyman Tom Ammiano as \u003ca href=\"http://www.ebar.com/news/article.php?sec=news&article=5198\">front-runners\u003c/a>. Of Ammiano, the city's previous progressive standard-bearer who lost to incumbent mayor Willie Brown in the 1999 mayoral run-off, BAR says this:\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\nA number of supervisors say they want Ammiano to move into Room 200 should the job become available. They contend Ammiano has the six votes needed among the current board to be elected to the post.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We may have a 'Run, Tom, Run' situation à la 1999,\" Supervisor Chris Daly told the Bay Area Reporter , referring to the write-in campaign that propelled Ammiano into that year's mayoral race in which he forced then-Mayor Willie Brown into a surprise runoff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ammiano, who is expected to easily win a second term in the Assembly Tuesday, left the door open to being named mayor during a brief phone interview with the B.A.R. this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You never say never in politics, that is the rule, but I am extremely satisfied in Sacramento. That is my priority,\" said Ammiano.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Finally, Matier & Ross today delved into the \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2010/11/01/BADG1G42LD.DTL\">\u003cstrong>complex political calculus\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> that will go into selecting the ultimate choice. \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\nThey include Assemblyman and former mayoral candidate Tom Ammiano (who tells us he's not interested), former Mayor Willie Brown (not interested), former Mayor Art Agnos (he's interested but doesn't have the votes) and former board President Aaron Peskin (ditto).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another suggestion has been to give the job to a non-political technocrat as a caretaker until the 2011 election. Names that have been floated include Controller Ben Rosenfeld, City Administrator Ed Lee and Ed Harrington, general manager of the city Public Utilities Commission...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because no one appears to have the votes, board President \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfbos.org/index.aspx?page=2105\">(David) Chiu\u003c/a> will automatically become acting mayor under the city charter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The only question is, for how long.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the new board is sworn in, the supervisors will have the choice of either taking no action - thus leaving Chiu in his new role - or putting together six votes for someone else.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That, however, could get complicated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Not only do they have to find someone they all agree on, they will also have the added complication of coming up with a plausible justification for removing Chiu, \" Brown said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In effect, they will have to fire him.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And that would not be easy, given that Chiu would be the city's first Chinese American mayor, in a city with an increasingly influential Asian populace.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the flip side, Chiu has fallen out of favor with some of the very progressives who installed him as board president in the first place. There is talk of replacing him with someone who will push their agenda harder, assuming a new progressive majority is elected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The name mentioned most often is Supervisor David Campos, who would be the city's first gay (and Latino) mayor.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So there you have it. Of course, it's all academic if Newsom loses tomorrow and settles back in at City Hall.

The city's \u003ca href=\"http://library.municode.com/HTML/14130/level1/AXIII.html#AXIII_s13.101.5\">charter states\u003c/a> that in the event of a mayoral vacancy, the Board of Supervisors chooses an interim until an election is held:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>If the Office of Mayor becomes vacant because of death, resignation, recall, permanent disability or the inability to carry out the responsibilities of the office, the President of the Board of Supervisors shall become Acting Mayor and shall serve until a successor is appointed by the Board of Supervisors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Any person filling a vacancy pursuant to subsection (a) or (b) of this Section shall serve until a successor is selected at the next election occurring not less than 120 days after the vacancy...\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\n\u003cp>Any successor needs six votes on the Board, no easy task, and speculation about just who will emerge as the consensus candidate has gone on for many months. In May, former mayoral candidate and progressive heartthrob Matt Gonzalez was \u003ca href=\"http://www.fogcityjournal.com/wordpress/2012/gonzalez-being-considered-for-interim-mayoral-post/\">rumored\u003c/a> to be in the running. That never panned out, and in June, the Bay Citizen wrote \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/18/us/18bcboard.html\">this piece\u003c/a> pegging David Chiu, the Board president, and Aaron Peskin, San Francisco Democratic Party Chairman, as the frontrunners.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\nMr. Chiu, 40, would be San Francisco’s first Chinese-American mayor. He was elected board president on his first day in office in 2008 thanks largely to Mr. Peskin, his predecessor as president...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mr. Chiu is popular and smart, with a firm grasp of policy issues and a centrist’s disposition; Mr. Peskin has been known to refer to him jokingly as “the Chinese Obama,” aides say. Mr. Chiu is often willing to break with his progressive allies and seek compromises with moderate colleagues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 46-year-old Mr. Peskin, on the other hand, is widely described as a bare-knuckled powerbroker, a capable operative who has turned the Democratic Party in San Francisco into a solidly progressive political machine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Who has put together a majority on that board before? David Chiu and Aaron Peskin,” said Eric Jaye, a former political strategist for Mr. Newsom. “You need to look at those two as front-runners, without a doubt.”\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A couple of months ago, a no-holds-barred realpolitik \u003ca href=\"http://abledartsbathroomwall.yuku.com/topic/3779\">analysis\u003c/a> posted on The Wall, a political forum on San Francisco politics, figured Peskin as the politico-most-likely to fill a vacated mayoralty. \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\nPeskin is the mostly likely to be appointed mayor by the other Guys. He started out well in politics as a good-government type.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, he got carried away with his own power. He developed a nasty habit of getting drunk after dinner and calling public officials at home night, loudly berating them with slurred obscenities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After being termed out as a supe, he successfully enlisted his cronies to orchestrate a take-over of the Democratic County Central Committee. They pushed out the good-natured, openly-gay Scott Wiener as chair and put Peskin in his place. Since then, Peskin has created a well oiled machine whose purpose is to make himself mayor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He has expressed his style of politics with the infamous Peskin principle: “Payback is a bitch.” This is the motto of every political machine. He first snarled these words at a woman sitting in a wheelchair.\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Just 11 days ago, however, the Bay Citizen reported on Peskin's \u003ca href=\"http://www.baycitizen.org/sf-supervisors-race/story/left-wing-shudders-its-presumed-leader/\">waning influence\u003c/a>, stating that a string of political setbacks has revealed that his \"reach seems to have been overstated.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Of Ammiano, the city's previous progressive standard-bearer who lost to incumbent mayor Willie Brown in the 1999 mayoral run-off, BAR says this:\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\nA number of supervisors say they want Ammiano to move into Room 200 should the job become available. They contend Ammiano has the six votes needed among the current board to be elected to the post.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We may have a 'Run, Tom, Run' situation à la 1999,\" Supervisor Chris Daly told the Bay Area Reporter , referring to the write-in campaign that propelled Ammiano into that year's mayoral race in which he forced then-Mayor Willie Brown into a surprise runoff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ammiano, who is expected to easily win a second term in the Assembly Tuesday, left the door open to being named mayor during a brief phone interview with the B.A.R. this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You never say never in politics, that is the rule, but I am extremely satisfied in Sacramento. That is my priority,\" said Ammiano.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Finally, Matier & Ross today delved into the \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2010/11/01/BADG1G42LD.DTL\">\u003cstrong>complex political calculus\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> that will go into selecting the ultimate choice. \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\nThey include Assemblyman and former mayoral candidate Tom Ammiano (who tells us he's not interested), former Mayor Willie Brown (not interested), former Mayor Art Agnos (he's interested but doesn't have the votes) and former board President Aaron Peskin (ditto).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another suggestion has been to give the job to a non-political technocrat as a caretaker until the 2011 election. Names that have been floated include Controller Ben Rosenfeld, City Administrator Ed Lee and Ed Harrington, general manager of the city Public Utilities Commission...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because no one appears to have the votes, board President \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfbos.org/index.aspx?page=2105\">(David) Chiu\u003c/a> will automatically become acting mayor under the city charter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The only question is, for how long.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the new board is sworn in, the supervisors will have the choice of either taking no action - thus leaving Chiu in his new role - or putting together six votes for someone else.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That, however, could get complicated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Not only do they have to find someone they all agree on, they will also have the added complication of coming up with a plausible justification for removing Chiu, \" Brown said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In effect, they will have to fire him.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And that would not be easy, given that Chiu would be the city's first Chinese American mayor, in a city with an increasingly influential Asian populace.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the flip side, Chiu has fallen out of favor with some of the very progressives who installed him as board president in the first place. There is talk of replacing him with someone who will push their agenda harder, assuming a new progressive majority is elected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The name mentioned most often is Supervisor David Campos, who would be the city's first gay (and Latino) mayor.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
