Thousands of people flooded the streets in \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/san-francisco\">San Francisco\u003c/a>, Oakland, Berkeley and San José. Some of the protests \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11166247/trumps-election-greeted-by-berkeley-oakland-protests\">turned violent\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, in 2024, the days after Trump’s decisive victory over \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/kamala-harris\">Vice President Kamala Harris\u003c/a> have been very different. A couple dozen people \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12013226/dozens-gather-in-sf-for-vigil-after-trump-win\">gathered for a vigil\u003c/a> at Harvey Milk Plaza on Wednesday night. There was a small demonstration at UC Berkeley, and about 100 people marched through the streets of San José.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mostly, the response has felt muted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the main outcome for many people who might have been out protesting is the feeling of being dispirited, the feeling of being humbled, the feeling of being out of touch with a lot of America,” said Jon Krosnick, a political psychologist at Stanford University. “Those aren’t the kinds of emotions that are inspiring a protest.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many people KQED spoke with said election results left them feeling defeated. Some are unsure what real impact another march will have. And a significant number of the young people who were coming of age during Trump’s first term say they’re disillusioned with the Democratic Party. While there haven’t been mass protests in the streets, all of these contingents say they are looking toward Trump’s second term and preparing to fight it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Max Flynt, who is a member of the General Union of Palestine Students at San Francisco State, said there wasn’t a possible election outcome that made Trump’s victory worth protesting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You can’t ignore the biggest anti-war movement in over half a century internationally, but also across campuses all across the United States, and expect young people to be excited,” he told KQED. “You can’t move to the right on immigration, brag about building Donald Trump’s border wall, prosecuting transnational gangs, demonizing immigrants and expect Democrats and young people to vote for the Democratic Party.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pro-Palestinian protesters have been a force on Bay Area college campuses since Israel began its war in Gaza after a Hamas-led attack killed 1,200 people in October 2023. Activists have criticized the Biden administration’s financial support for Israel throughout the war, which has now killed more than \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12011429/these-gen-z-voters-are-choosing-kamala-harris-but-gaza-is-still-a-sticking-point\">42,000 Palestinians\u003c/a>, according to Gaza health officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ahead of the presidential election, SF State’s General Union of Palestine Students, along with local pro-Palestine campus organizations, encouraged members not to vote for either Trump or Harris, running a “No more votes for genocide” campaign on social media.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We will continue to declare our full support for Palestinian liberation and will not be fooled by a two-party system that continues to be complicit and in full support of the genocide in Gaza,” the organization posted on \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/DBybbr9pPpu/\">Instagram\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Young people between the ages of 18 and 29 did vote at a significantly lower rate — 42% compared to 52% — than in 2020, according to Tufts University’s \u003ca href=\"https://circle.tufts.edu/latest-research/overall-youth-turnout-down-2020-strong-battleground-states\">Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even among those who were fans of Harris, Krosnick said the election’s circumstances are different now than they were in 2016. Then, it felt implausible that someone who used inflammatory language like Trump would be elected. There was outrage that he lost the popular vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This time, he won the electoral college more handily and is leading in the popular vote by more than a two-point margin. There’s much less shock because he’s held office before. In general, the feeling is more resignation than anger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether those feelings linger or turn into determination and defiance will be an important indicator of how national politics will trend in the near future, Krosnick said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If the part of America that supports the Democratic Party becomes deactivated as a result of this, then the momentum of the Republican Party is going to be tremendous in the coming decades,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans also gained a majority in the Senate, flipping four seats. Control of the House of Representatives has not yet been decided, but Republicans have already picked up two seats from Democrats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Protest will be critical for balancing the scales,” Krosnick said, adding that demonstrations will rely on young people to be successful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In part, it’s easier for young people to take the time, he said. They also haven’t seen the political pendulum swing left and right as many times and, in the past, have usually been less disillusioned with the impact they can make.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think a lot more people just are taking their time to kind of process, accept what this means and then move forward,” said Zoe Tweedie, the president of the Stanford University chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She and Brian Yan, another one of SF State’s General Union of Palestine Students leaders, do believe that young people will activate around Trump’s policies once he is in office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yan and Flynt are focused on how the Trump administration handles the war in Gaza. They expect Trump, who has urged Israel to “finish the job” in Gaza, will be less critical of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think with Trump in office, this could galvanize people,” Yan said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They see the second Trump term as an opportunity for Democrats to rally around the pro-Palestine movement and move toward the progressive wing of the party.[aside label=\"Related Stories\" postID=\"news_12013226,news_12012421,forum_2010101907754\"]“We’re hoping that we see something similar to the attitude around [Black Lives Matter],” Flynt said. “When Donald Trump became president — [creating] the 1776 project, calling BLM terrorists, calling antifa terrorists — all of a sudden, we see \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13881731/a-front-row-seat-at-the-woke-theatre\">Nancy Pelosi wearing a Kente cloth\u003c/a>, on her knee, putting her fist up for the Black Lives Matter movement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tweedie expects people to focus less on protest and more on advocacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think what you’re going to see and what I’m already seeing a lot more of is rather than negative campaigns, positive campaigns,” she said. “The ACLU is investing time into, ‘How can we protect rights that we’re scared we’re going to lose?’ rather than ‘How can we protest against Trump?’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Students she’s spoken with want to focus on issue-driven organizing efforts. Tweedie believes state-level mutual aid campaigns and legal fights where abortion restrictions, anti-transgender laws and crackdowns on immigration are the most severe will likely lead Democrats’ resistance to whatever the incoming administration chooses to target.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yan agrees that just because there hasn’t been mass protest on the streets doesn’t mean people aren’t focused on how to face the next four years. One of the biggest questions being considered is: “How do we fight back?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Maybe people are thinking it can’t just be big marches through the streets. We have to get organized,” he told KQED. “How do we be more tactful about how to fight back and when? Because the repression is only going to get worse under Trump, and we have to start thinking through, ‘How do we get through that, and how do we keep each other safe?’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Activists have criticized the Biden administration’s financial support for Israel throughout the war, which has now killed more than \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12011429/these-gen-z-voters-are-choosing-kamala-harris-but-gaza-is-still-a-sticking-point\">42,000 Palestinians\u003c/a>, according to Gaza health officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ahead of the presidential election, SF State’s General Union of Palestine Students, along with local pro-Palestine campus organizations, encouraged members not to vote for either Trump or Harris, running a “No more votes for genocide” campaign on social media.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We will continue to declare our full support for Palestinian liberation and will not be fooled by a two-party system that continues to be complicit and in full support of the genocide in Gaza,” the organization posted on \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/DBybbr9pPpu/\">Instagram\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Young people between the ages of 18 and 29 did vote at a significantly lower rate — 42% compared to 52% — than in 2020, according to Tufts University’s \u003ca href=\"https://circle.tufts.edu/latest-research/overall-youth-turnout-down-2020-strong-battleground-states\">Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even among those who were fans of Harris, Krosnick said the election’s circumstances are different now than they were in 2016. Then, it felt implausible that someone who used inflammatory language like Trump would be elected. There was outrage that he lost the popular vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This time, he won the electoral college more handily and is leading in the popular vote by more than a two-point margin. There’s much less shock because he’s held office before. In general, the feeling is more resignation than anger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether those feelings linger or turn into determination and defiance will be an important indicator of how national politics will trend in the near future, Krosnick said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If the part of America that supports the Democratic Party becomes deactivated as a result of this, then the momentum of the Republican Party is going to be tremendous in the coming decades,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans also gained a majority in the Senate, flipping four seats. Control of the House of Representatives has not yet been decided, but Republicans have already picked up two seats from Democrats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Protest will be critical for balancing the scales,” Krosnick said, adding that demonstrations will rely on young people to be successful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In part, it’s easier for young people to take the time, he said. They also haven’t seen the political pendulum swing left and right as many times and, in the past, have usually been less disillusioned with the impact they can make.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think a lot more people just are taking their time to kind of process, accept what this means and then move forward,” said Zoe Tweedie, the president of the Stanford University chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She and Brian Yan, another one of SF State’s General Union of Palestine Students leaders, do believe that young people will activate around Trump’s policies once he is in office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yan and Flynt are focused on how the Trump administration handles the war in Gaza. They expect Trump, who has urged Israel to “finish the job” in Gaza, will be less critical of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think with Trump in office, this could galvanize people,” Yan said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They see the second Trump term as an opportunity for Democrats to rally around the pro-Palestine movement and move toward the progressive wing of the party.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

While our team has reviewed it, there may be errors.\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:01:25] So Lurie won by about 56% of votes after ranked choice tallies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra \u003c/strong>[00:01:31] Sidney Johnson is a reporter for KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:01:34] And that’s compared to Breed, who had 43% of votes by the end of the tally. You know, votes are still being counted. So this wasn’t like the total of all the cumulative votes put together. But, you know, a lot of political scientists that I spoke to and people who are watching this race did say that, you know, just the math of it was going to be really difficult for her to pull through at that point and get a lead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra \u003c/strong>[00:01:59] And I mean, how big of a shakeup is this in San Francisco politics, Sidney?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:02:07] It’s a huge shakeup. Lurie has not had a job in government before. So this is going to be really a true test of of what his experience can look like. And it’s also the first time that the city has had a mayor that hasn’t been working in City hall in almost a century. You know, London Breed and some of her predecessors all worked on either the Board of Supervisors or other, you know, roles in City Hall. And Daniel Lurie has campaigned on being an outsider and really positioning himself as a fresh face who can come in and, you know, try to root out some of these issues of corruption that have come up not only in this election cycle, but over the past few years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra \u003c/strong>[00:03:01] And I guess that him being an outsider, seemed to have appealed to a lot of people. What were voters most concerned about and how did Daniel Lurie distinguish himself in this field?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:03:15] A lot of polls showed that for voters in this election cycle, the top issues were homelessness, housing, public safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daniel Lurie \u003c/strong>[00:03:23] We need clean and safe streets. That’s why I’ve said my top priority is public safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:03:28] When it came to public safety, he talked about how he wanted to fully fund the police department, increase, you know, foot patrols.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daniel Lurie \u003c/strong>[00:03:36] Nothing else matters if we don’t keep people safe. We don’t keep downtown safe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:03:41] And then when it came to homelessness, he says that he does want to enforce sit lie laws in order to clear encampments and remove people who are homeless from sidewalks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daniel Lurie \u003c/strong>[00:03:51] I want trained clinicians going out first, bringing people into a 24 seven crisis center and then deploying them to beds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:04:00] But he said he wants to do so by opening up more shelter beds and really rapidly building more housing. You know, of course, that’s going to be a lot harder to do in practice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daniel Lurie \u003c/strong>[00:04:12] I’m the only person in this race that’s gotten housing built. I know how to get big things done. And the key component of all of it is holding people accountable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:04:22] One of the big issues that Laurie campaigned on was bringing more accountability to city hall. You know, he told me that he’s going to have weekly meetings with department heads and that he’s going to make a lot of city hall staff, quote, re-interview for their job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daniel Lurie \u003c/strong>[00:04:38] If you want more of the same, you got four other people to choose from.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:04:47] Being the only candidate without experience directly in city hall, you know, Lurie faced attacks around that from his opponents. Breed even said one time that it would be dangerous to elect someone like Lurie who, you know, hasn’t had that experience. You know, managing public budgets and overseeing enormous staffs of thousands of people. But Lurie really leaned into that and he, you know, told voters often the people who are in city hall right now are the people who created a lot of the problems that the city is struggling to repair.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daniel Lurie \u003c/strong>[00:05:25] We don’t have a crisis of resources in our city. We have a crisis of leadership. If you want something different, if you want change in this city, I’m all, I’m here for it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra \u003c/strong>[00:05:38] And he was also the wealthiest person running great. Lots of his own money spent on his campaign. What role do you think that played in his ultimate success?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:05:54] So, I mean, Lurie’s message was powerful. It definitely seemed to resonate with a lot of people. But his campaign financing and his wealth was what allowed that message to reach so far. Lurie raised more than any candidate for mayor in the city’s history. You know, he’s an heir to the Levi Strauss fortune. Obviously, that name probably had a little bit of an extra boost of credibility here in San Francisco. But he raised close to $16 million across his whole campaign. And that was more than any other candidate. And more than $8 million of that came from Daniel Lurie himself. And so, you know, there was a lot of money in this race in general. We saw a lot of VC, you know, tech and crypto investors donating millions of dollars to propositions and other candidates. But Lurie definitely soared above the pack in terms of financing this race.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra \u003c/strong>[00:06:50] Yeah, and that helps.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:06:52] Sure did.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra \u003c/strong>[00:06:54] I want to turn to the other candidates who, as we’ve been talking about, have a lot of experience in local politics. Interim mayor, Supervisor Mark Farrell, Supervisor Aaron Peskin and Mayor London Breed. Why ultimately do you think these three weren’t able to rise to the top? I almost feel like it’s sort of easier to run as the outsider candidate than it is to be on the defensive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:07:19] Yeah. You know, it’s it’s hard to say because running as an outsider is also difficult. You know, being an incumbent is a huge advantage. You have a record. You have name recognition. I’d say for, you know, Breed, Farrell and Peskin, it’s a little bit of a different story for each candidate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peskin, he was the only candidate running on a progressive platform in this race, which was all Democrats. In terms of the leading candidates, we should point out. And in the beginning, it was kind of unclear where he would be coalescing support among progressives in the city. It seemed a little bit scattered what his base was going to look like. That certainly changed as the election got closer.

Fine. And this was the biggest fine in the city’s history for a campaign finance violation. He agreed and announced the settlement the day before the election.

On Friday morning, he told reporters that he is ready to take on the job. He said that it’s time for change. He said that he is planning to bring accountability to city hall.

I mean, not only was he campaigning as an outsider, but he was really campaigning against the people who are in city hall. And we maybe got a taste of that on the campaign trail. But in terms of what, you know, that’s actually going to look like in office and whether he’s going to be able to achieve some of the things that he’s been talking about. That’s all what we’re going to have to wait and see.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daniel Lurie \u003c/strong>[00:12:11] We have a change coming on January 8th, 2025. This city will rise again.

And when we look at the first time that that happened, you know, the city was on the defensive constantly.

You know, so it’s going to be difficult, I think, for Lurie to be focused on on all the things that he wants to be, because there’s going to be a lot of scrutiny and attention on San Francisco, not to mention the fact that, you know, the feds control important resources that the city relies on for things like housing. And on the note of budgets. The city is facing a massive budget deficit and he’s going to be tasked with trying to solve some of that. And that is not going to be an easy task.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra \u003c/strong>[00:13:24] I mean, ultimately, Sidney, what do you think Lurie’s win says about where San Francisco is at right now?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:13:32] I think it shows that San Franciscans are really eager to see something different in our city.

You know, people started coming out and the city really struggled to bounce back. There was some of the worst numbers for our overdose crisis. And, you know, homelessness really did get worse during the pandemic when a lot of people lost jobs and housing and they didn’t see a quick enough recovery that I think gave them faith that London breed would be able to continue doing that. And, you know, I think it shows that voters were willing to take a risk and say we need something different.

You know, votes are still being counted. So this wasn’t like the total of all the cumulative votes put together. But, you know, a lot of political scientists that I spoke to and people who are watching this race did say that, you know, just the math of it was going to be really difficult for her to pull through at that point and get a lead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra \u003c/strong>[00:01:59] And I mean, how big of a shakeup is this in San Francisco politics, Sidney?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:02:07] It’s a huge shakeup. Lurie has not had a job in government before. So this is going to be really a true test of of what his experience can look like. And it’s also the first time that the city has had a mayor that hasn’t been working in City hall in almost a century. You know, London Breed and some of her predecessors all worked on either the Board of Supervisors or other, you know, roles in City Hall. And Daniel Lurie has campaigned on being an outsider and really positioning himself as a fresh face who can come in and, you know, try to root out some of these issues of corruption that have come up not only in this election cycle, but over the past few years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra \u003c/strong>[00:03:01] And I guess that him being an outsider, seemed to have appealed to a lot of people. What were voters most concerned about and how did Daniel Lurie distinguish himself in this field?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:03:15] A lot of polls showed that for voters in this election cycle, the top issues were homelessness, housing, public safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daniel Lurie \u003c/strong>[00:03:23] We need clean and safe streets. That’s why I’ve said my top priority is public safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:03:28] When it came to public safety, he talked about how he wanted to fully fund the police department, increase, you know, foot patrols.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daniel Lurie \u003c/strong>[00:03:36] Nothing else matters if we don’t keep people safe. We don’t keep downtown safe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:03:41] And then when it came to homelessness, he says that he does want to enforce sit lie laws in order to clear encampments and remove people who are homeless from sidewalks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daniel Lurie \u003c/strong>[00:03:51] I want trained clinicians going out first, bringing people into a 24 seven crisis center and then deploying them to beds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:04:00] But he said he wants to do so by opening up more shelter beds and really rapidly building more housing. You know, of course, that’s going to be a lot harder to do in practice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daniel Lurie \u003c/strong>[00:04:12] I’m the only person in this race that’s gotten housing built. I know how to get big things done. And the key component of all of it is holding people accountable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:04:22] One of the big issues that Laurie campaigned on was bringing more accountability to city hall. You know, he told me that he’s going to have weekly meetings with department heads and that he’s going to make a lot of city hall staff, quote, re-interview for their job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daniel Lurie \u003c/strong>[00:04:38] If you want more of the same, you got four other people to choose from.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:04:47] Being the only candidate without experience directly in city hall, you know, Lurie faced attacks around that from his opponents. Breed even said one time that it would be dangerous to elect someone like Lurie who, you know, hasn’t had that experience. You know, managing public budgets and overseeing enormous staffs of thousands of people. But Lurie really leaned into that and he, you know, told voters often the people who are in city hall right now are the people who created a lot of the problems that the city is struggling to repair.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daniel Lurie \u003c/strong>[00:05:25] We don’t have a crisis of resources in our city. We have a crisis of leadership. If you want something different, if you want change in this city, I’m all, I’m here for it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra \u003c/strong>[00:05:38] And he was also the wealthiest person running great. Lots of his own money spent on his campaign. What role do you think that played in his ultimate success?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:05:54] So, I mean, Lurie’s message was powerful. It definitely seemed to resonate with a lot of people. But his campaign financing and his wealth was what allowed that message to reach so far. Lurie raised more than any candidate for mayor in the city’s history. You know, he’s an heir to the Levi Strauss fortune. Obviously, that name probably had a little bit of an extra boost of credibility here in San Francisco. But he raised close to $16 million across his whole campaign. And that was more than any other candidate. And more than $8 million of that came from Daniel Lurie himself. And so, you know, there was a lot of money in this race in general. We saw a lot of VC, you know, tech and crypto investors donating millions of dollars to propositions and other candidates. But Lurie definitely soared above the pack in terms of financing this race.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra \u003c/strong>[00:06:50] Yeah, and that helps.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:06:52] Sure did.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra \u003c/strong>[00:06:54] I want to turn to the other candidates who, as we’ve been talking about, have a lot of experience in local politics. Interim mayor, Supervisor Mark Farrell, Supervisor Aaron Peskin and Mayor London Breed. Why ultimately do you think these three weren’t able to rise to the top? I almost feel like it’s sort of easier to run as the outsider candidate than it is to be on the defensive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:07:19] Yeah. You know, it’s it’s hard to say because running as an outsider is also difficult. You know, being an incumbent is a huge advantage. You have a record. You have name recognition. I’d say for, you know, Breed, Farrell and Peskin, it’s a little bit of a different story for each candidate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peskin, he was the only candidate running on a progressive platform in this race, which was all Democrats. In terms of the leading candidates, we should point out. And in the beginning, it was kind of unclear where he would be coalescing support among progressives in the city. It seemed a little bit scattered what his base was going to look like. That certainly changed as the election got closer. We saw him rising in the polls, but it just never seemed to, you know, really rise above kind of the the threshold that Breed and Breed had sort of established in terms of their base.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed campaigned as the cheerleader for the city. You know, if you remember just a couple of years ago, she was really leaning into that doom loop narrative about the city. And, you know, on the campaign trail, she was trying to convince voters that actually things have improved and that’s on the right track. And, you know, she’s got more work to do. And, you know, a lot of voters didn’t buy that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then Mark Farrell, you know, his run has really been hallmarked by some pretty serious ethics scandals even before his current mayoral bid. Mark Farrell had one of the largest campaign ethics violation fines in the city’s history back from his run for supervisor just on Monday, the day before the election, Mark Farrell was hit with another ethics. Fine. And this was the biggest fine in the city’s history for a campaign finance violation. He agreed and announced the settlement the day before the election. And, you know, I think all of these adding up just really did not support his campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra \u003c/strong>[00:09:28] I mean, what has the reaction to Daniel Lurie’s win looked like so far?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>London Breed \u003c/strong>[00:09:34] Good evening, everyone. I’m San Francisco mayor London breed and being mayor of the city has been the absolute honor of my life. But this office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sydney Johnson \u003c/strong>[00:09:44] London Breed conceded the race. You know, frankly, I was almost a little bit surprised.

We brought crime down dramatically across the board with a historic 35% reduction in homicides. For the first time in over a decade, Oakland went over a month without a single murder. Our work literally saved lives.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the updated results released Friday by the Alameda County Registrar of Voters, the recall held a sizable advantage — 65.3% to 36.1%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Oakland’s city charter, once the election is certified and Thao’s office is declared vacant, the city council president fills the office while a special election is held within 120 days. In an interview with KQED, former Oakland City Councilmember Loren Taylor said he would run.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Oaklanders have spoken with a very strong voice regarding what they need from city leadership, and they clearly have not been getting it from the current administration,” said Taylor, who \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11931400/sheng-thao-oaklands-next-mayor\">finished second to Thao\u003c/a> two years ago. “The same commitment I have to the city I’m from that drove me to run in 2022 is what’s compelling me to step up in the special election once the results are certified.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a Nov. 6 statement \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/Nikkiforallofus/status/1854297936013971470\">posted to social media platform X\u003c/a>, Council President Nikki Fortunato Bas said she was already working with the city attorney to plan for a smooth transition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Oakland City Council would declare the results no later than its next regularly scheduled meeting on Dec. 17, according to Bas. At that point, Thao will step down, the mayor’s spokesperson told KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once she is out, Bas will become interim mayor until the special election unless she is declared winner of a county supervisor race that, as of Saturday morning, still hasn’t been called.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If Bas were to win that seat, a new council president would be elected in January, and that person would serve as interim mayor. If she loses, the city council could still choose a new council president in January. After Friday’s results, Bas trailed John Bauters, an Emeryville city council member.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recall organizers blamed the city’s challenges, including crime, shuttering businesses and a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12009486/oaklands-finances-significant-risk-report-warns-coliseum-sale-raises-questions\">multimillion-dollar budget deficit,\u003c/a> on what they described as Thao’s incompetence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11991242/fbi-agents-raid-home-of-oakland-mayor-sheng-thao\">An FBI raid of Thao’s home\u003c/a> in June cast a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11992073/oakland-fbi-raids-and-straw-donor-probe-spur-allegations-of-corruption\">dark cloud over her administration\u003c/a>.

She remembers feeling scared that her parents — or even she, a U.S. citizen — would be deported and crying all day in class. Now, she feels more angry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m angry that he was elected into office again, that he has promised the same thing again, and that people keep perpetuating it and moving it forward, not recognizing how harmful it can be,” she said. “You look back, and you see that time and time again, he’s just rephrased the same hate that he’s spewed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many California children and their families, including immigrants, transgender students and Black and Latino students, among others, are feeling similar fear and uncertainty, after the election of a candidate who has threatened to deport undocumented immigrants en masse, and to cut school funding to states that protect transgender students and promote diversity, equity and inclusion in their schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California education leaders and advocates said the fear is palpable and justifiable, but they also urged TK-12 schools, colleges and universities to make sure students and families know about policies to protect their rights, some of which were enacted during the first Trump administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An estimated \u003ca class=\"external\" href=\"https://childrenspartnership.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/ChildIsaChild_Immigrant-2024-FINAL.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">1 million\u003c/a> California children — about 1 in 10 — have an undocumented immigrant parent, the state estimates.

And we have California laws, especially AB 699, that was passed in 2017, that requires school districts to ensure that our immigrant students are welcomed into our public schools.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The U.S. Supreme Court established in 1982, in the case Plyler vs. Doe, that all children have a right to a free public education, regardless of their immigration status.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s \u003ca class=\"external\" href=\"https://www.ilrc.org/sites/default/files/resources/ab_699_final.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Assembly Bill 699 (PDF)\u003c/a> was passed in response to the previous Trump administration’s immigration enforcement and the fear it caused among immigrant families in California. The bill instructs schools not to collect information about families’ immigration status unless required by law, and requires schools to pass policies limiting assistance with immigration enforcement at public schools, among other things.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lindsey Bird was a newcomer teacher, working with recent immigrant students in 2016 when Trump was first elected. She said she had Syrian refugee students in tears that day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They felt like their humanity was on the ballot, and they lost,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bird now works with Teach Plus California, coaching teachers throughout the state on how best to teach English learners. She said teachers are “heartbroken” for their students after Tuesday’s election and eager to share information with their students about their rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One teacher told me, ‘I’ll let myself grieve for the remainder of the week, but then I feel like my mama bear mode has been activated because I feel like I have to protect my students,’” Bird said. “So she was asking, ‘How can I protect them? What are my rights? What are their rights?’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Megan Stanton-Trehan, a senior attorney at Disability Rights California who represents students with disabilities, said she saw many students with disabilities and students of color struggle during the last Trump presidency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am really concerned about my clients who have disabilities, who are students of color, who are transgender,” said Stanton-Trehan. “In California, we may have a state that is protecting those students to some degree. We have laws that protect them here that are not dependent upon the way the federal government interprets the law, but that’s a lot of burden to put on the state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said that the lessons of that first term, however, are in the power of people standing up to such policies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think it’s definitely more than ever a time to really center those students and their needs and, really, their voices too,” Stanton-Trehan said. “They’re the next generation, and they’re living through this as well. They’re the ones at the forefront. If there’s any silver lining, it’s perhaps how galvanizing this can be for young people to say enough is enough.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State Attorney General Rob Bonta has said that his team is preparing to protect immigrants, transgender students and others, with possible litigation against Trump’s expected policies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Fortunately, and unfortunately, we have four years of Trump 1.0 under our belts. We know what to expect, and we won’t be caught flat-footed,” said a Bonta spokesperson. “California’s Legislature has enacted strong protections for the rights of all students in California, and the Department of Justice will ensure those protections are enforced across the state. We are paying attention to what Trump and his advisers have said about their plans for a second administration, and we will be prepared to defend California’s values.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.C. Berkeley political science professor Dan Schnur said Gov. Gavin Newsom has battled Trump before, but faces a new reality with Harris’ loss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Newsom’s challenge is going to be balancing what’s best for him as governor and what’s best for him as a potential presidential candidate,” Schnur said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Trump recognizes, Schnur said, “how much he can benefit politically with his base by beating up on California. The question is how he decides how much of that political benefit can be realized by threats and how much can be realized through follow-up on those threats.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s campaign promise of shutting down the U.S. Department of Education is an example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Such a move “is a long, long, long shot,” Schnur said “Even if Republicans do win a House majority, he’s going to have a lot of members here who are reluctant to cast that vote.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Trump’s railing against transgender people and false claims that children receive gender reassignment surgeries at public schools may keep political traction, Schnur said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that debate is much more likely to be central to his agenda.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>LGBTQ+ youth were a major focus of this election season up and down the ballot, according to Jorge Reyes Salinas, communications director for LGBTQ+ civil rights organization Equality California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump attacked transgender women playing sports and gender-affirming care for transgender youth. Local school board candidates promoted policies that outed transgender students to their parents, in opposition to \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/2024/newsom-signs-bill-to-end-parental-notification-policies-at-schools-but-opponents-say-its-not-over-yet/715767\">a new state law\u003c/a>. Anti-bullying policies at local school districts that specifically name LGBTQ youth have become a flash point.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California already has laws on the books that protect these communities, and Salinas noted that voters supported Proposition 3, which enshrines the right to same-sex marriage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think being in California does provide a peace of mind,” Salinas said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Equality California will be working with other organizations to ensure that there are no gaps in protecting LGBTQ+ youth in California, and that state laws that do support them are implemented.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some school districts, including Los Angeles Unified, sent messages out to parents prior to or during Election Day, highlighting protections for students and offering mental health support for students experiencing anxiety or fear after the election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The union representing teachers in LAUSD, United Teachers Los Angeles, issued a statement saying that\u003cstrong> “\u003c/strong>Ensuring that students and their families are informed and safe will always be our top priority. We are committed to ensuring that every LAUSD student, especially BIPOC, immigrant, and LGBTQIA+ students, has access to the education, resources, and support they deserve.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some colleges and universities sent similar messages to students. Santa Monica College sent a message to students before the election to offer counseling and “debriefing” spaces for all students, but particularly for LGBTQ students, undocumented students and “racially minoritized communities.” In a Nov. 6 message, San Francisco State University President Lynn Mahoney encouraged students to seek support from campus counseling services as well as groups including the Dream Resource Center and the Queer & Trans Resource Center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Higher education officials in California are well aware they could face legal and funding challenges from the Trump administration on such issues as enrolling undocumented students, free speech and diversity, equity and inclusion. In a rare move Wednesday, the leaders of California’s three public higher education systems shared a joint statement emphasizing that their campuses are welcoming to students and staff from all backgrounds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Following the presidential election results, we understand that there is a great deal of uncertainty and anxiety within California’s higher education community,” reads the statement, which was signed by Michael Drake, president of the University of California; Mildred García, chancellor of the California State University; and Sonya Christian, chancellor of California Community Colleges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The University of California, the California State University, and the California Community Colleges remain steadfast and committed to our values of diversity and inclusivity,” they added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ju Hong, director of the UCLA Dream Resource Center, said Trump’s call for mass deportation is stoking fear among undocumented students and students who are citizens but have family members who are undocumented.[aside label=\"Related Stories\" postID=\"forum_2010101907711,news_11181738,news_12006150\"]Hong said there’s also concern that the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, program could get terminated by the courts during Trump’s presidency. Hong himself is a DACA recipient. If the program gets terminated, he wouldn’t be able to keep his job and would be at risk of deportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hong called on UC leaders, including the system’s board of regents, to support immigrant students and staff, both with public statements of support and by advocating for more funding for programs like the Dream Resource Center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Hopefully they think through what are some creative ways to proactively support immigrant students on and off campus,” Hong said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kevin R. Johnson, professor and former dean of the UC Davis School of Law, said he is concerned that the election of Trump to a second presidency could deter undocumented students from attending public universities, even in California, where they are eligible for in-state tuition and where all three public college and university systems have legal services for undocumented students and family members.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I do think that over the next few months, we will see a great deal of fear and consternation in the immigrant community, including the immigrant student community,” Johnson said. “I fear that the general tenor and thrust of President Trump and some others about immigrants can chill undocumented students from attending a public university and be worried that any appearance in public places could lead to their removal.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>EdSource’s \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/author/zstavely\">Zaidee Stavely\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/author/dlambert\">Diana Lambert\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/author/bmarquez\">Betty Márquez Rosales\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/author/egallegos\">Emma Gallegos\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/author/mburke\">Michael Burke\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/author/adipierro\">Amy DiPierro\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/author/mseshadri\">Mallika Seshadri\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/author/tpeele\">Thomas Peele\u003c/a> contributed to this story that \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/2024/california-education-leaders-try-to-reassure-students-of-protections-against-trump-policies/721853\">originally appeared in EdSource\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",
