But looks like you will be...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4:13 p.m. \"Despite references to Donkey Kong,\" we have orderly transition of power, says Chiu. Says he's proud of what they're about to do. But somebody just tweeted: \"Hey supervisors, nobody cares anymore. That was an earthquake.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4:13 p.m. Chiu doesn't mention the earthquake, but there sure are a lot of tweets coming over the transom about it. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4:11 p.m. Board Pres. David Chiu's turn...Hey everyone is tweeting there's been an earthquake. Not just a political one... Some people felt it here too.\u003cbr>\n\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4:09 p.m. \u003ca href=\"http://www.google.com/search?q=alioto+pier\">Michela Alioto-Pier\u003c/a> is speaking. She's being termed out, along with Daly, Dufty, and Sophie Maxwell. She's always been a yes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4:07 p.m. More people are clicking right now on the \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2011/01/07/reports-harbaugh-to-coach-49ers/\">49ers live press conference\u003c/a> announcing hiring of Jim Harbaugh than this. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4:02 p.m. \u003ca href=\"http://www.google.com/search?q=ross+mirakirimi\">Ross Mirkarimi\u003c/a>'s turn. He too is upset that Hennessey didn't make the grade on Tuesday. He too says that all signals were that Hennessey would be acceptable to Newsom. This \u003ca href=\"http://www.baycitizen.org/politics/story/behind-scenes-power-politics-making-ed/\">inside look\u003c/a> at how the process unfolded by the Bay Citizen today says the following: \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"... the contenders — Sheriff Michael Hennessey, former Mayor Art Agnos and Aaron Peskin, the chairman of the city’s Democratic Party — were deemed too liberal by Pak, Brown and Newsom, who are more moderate.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:58 p.m. Here comes The Daly Show. To wit: \"Go along to get along\" isn't a good thing. He cites his words from Tuesday. \"Something is not right, not just with process,\" but in, I quote: \"The world.\" If Lee surprises Daly, then he'll apologize. But in Lee, all Daly sees is status quote. As \"candidate Obama said, we need change...what we have in front of us will not address fundamental injustices in SF.\" He's a no vote. But I wonder: Ed Lee will just be an interim mayor, no? Would even a dyed-in-the-wool progressive interim be able to galvanzie any change in business as usual?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:54 p.m. Eric Mar's up. His recent \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2011/01/04/the-daily-show-san-francisco-happy-meal-toy-ban/\">appearance\u003c/a> on The Daily Show comes to mind. Didn't look too good there, coming off better now. He's a yes vote. Rose Pak said \"it's a done deal,\" and boy it sure looks that way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:52 p.m. Avalos speaking, sound like a yes. Looks like it's going to be a landslide. 10-1? A vote against Lee would be something \"setting us way back.\" Like Campos, he has questions about process. Doesn't like Newsom's delaying his Lt Guv swearing-in in order to influence the process for interim mayor. But he's going to vote yes. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:51 p.m. \u003ca href=\"http://twitter.com/#!/njudah\">N Judah Chronicles\u003c/a> is tweeting the meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:45 p.m. Campos talks about significance to Chinese-American community. Knows what it's like when a community that's been excluded feels one of their own will take charge. Says the supes should keep this in mind. Hopes Ed Lee will provide \"due process\" rights for all citizens. Talking about SF as \u003ca href=\"http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/05/06/san-francisco-sanctuary-c_n_566954.html\">sanctuary city\u003c/a>. Wants to make sure Lee's on board with that. He's going to vote for Lee. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:40 p.m. David Campos now speaking. Talking about nomination for Hennessey, which failed. Says Hennessey didn't deserve treatment he received, accepted nomination only after hearing from peopel allied with Newsom and Newsom himself. Says he's been open to Lee serving in role of interim mayor. Campos says he's spoken to Le twice now. Doesn't like the process that's taken shape. At end of day, he's \"very disappointed\" in process and way votes have shifted, the real question is \"Can Ed Lee do this job?\" Yes, Campos says. He's no \"lightweight,\" as Aaron Peskin said in a press report. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:38 p.m. Rose Pak is there, apparently. Daly says if nominations were opened up again, he'd \"go ahead and nominate Rose Pak.\" That's an allusion to Pak's behind-the-scenes role, along with Willie Brown, in getting Lee to this point. He's really going after her now. Daly said same thing to \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfexaminer.com/blogs/under-dome/2011/01/daly-why-not-just-make-pak-mayor\">Examiner\u003c/a> today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:35 p.m. \"If (he) ends up being appointed successor mayor,\" for the 12 months following that term, he cannot have full-time employment from the city and county of San Francisco\" after. That's the whole issue of Lee wanting an exemption from being excluded from taking over his old job as City Administrator. Talk is they are going to change that law to accomodate Lee's candidacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:33 p.m. Daly cites this \u003ca href=\"http://www.baycitizen.org/politics/story/newsoms-dual-role-raises-legal-quandary/\">Bay Citizen article\u003c/a>: \"Newsom's Dual Role Raises Legal Quandary.\" Says Bay Citizen's \u003ca href=\"http://www.baycitizen.org/politics/story/behind-scenes-power-politics-making-ed/\">piece\u003c/a> today delving into how Lee got made as the candidate was \"best piece of journalism\" he's seen in city in a long time. (It was an excellent piece.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:30 p.m. Now Daly's embroiled in a complicated conversation about conflict-of-interest rules with an attorney whose name and position I didn't catch. Not sure who she represents. Daly says he's \"exhausted himself\" on this point. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:25 p.m. Daly asks why Dufty is not conflicted out of this vote as he is running for mayor. Cites example of Dennis Herrera, City Attorney, who recused himself from consulting on interim mayor decision. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:23 p.m. \u003ca href=\"http://twitter.com/#!/mlnow\">Mission Local\u003c/a> is tweeting the meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:22 p.m. Eric Mar says he was \"deeply troubled\" with breakdown of civlity at last meeting. Votes to re-open nominations. Dufty says no. Mar is aye. Maxwell is no. Mirkarimi aye. Alioto-Pier no. Avalos no. Campos aye. Five ayes, six nos, Daly loses that one. He will not be able to submit a new name for nomination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:18 p.m. They're going over what happened at Tuesday's meeting and whose in nomination tonight. Peskin, Lee, Hennessey. Peskin said he didn't want it, so Daly is asked to withdraw Peskin nomination. Daly does. Asks if he can open new nomination. Makes motion to re-open nomination given that his candidate declined. He needs a majority vote. \u003c/p>\n\n",

Congratulations Ed Lee, you are now not really the interim mayor, because the office is not vacant yet. But looks like you will be...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Says he's proud of what they're about to do. But somebody just tweeted: \"Hey supervisors, nobody cares anymore. That was an earthquake.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4:13 p.m. Chiu doesn't mention the earthquake, but there sure are a lot of tweets coming over the transom about it. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4:11 p.m. Board Pres. David Chiu's turn...Hey everyone is tweeting there's been an earthquake. Not just a political one... Some people felt it here too.\u003cbr>\n\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4:09 p.m. \u003ca href=\"http://www.google.com/search?q=alioto+pier\">Michela Alioto-Pier\u003c/a> is speaking. She's being termed out, along with Daly, Dufty, and Sophie Maxwell. She's always been a yes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4:07 p.m. More people are clicking right now on the \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2011/01/07/reports-harbaugh-to-coach-49ers/\">49ers live press conference\u003c/a> announcing hiring of Jim Harbaugh than this. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4:02 p.m. \u003ca href=\"http://www.google.com/search?q=ross+mirakirimi\">Ross Mirkarimi\u003c/a>'s turn. He too is upset that Hennessey didn't make the grade on Tuesday. He too says that all signals were that Hennessey would be acceptable to Newsom. This \u003ca href=\"http://www.baycitizen.org/politics/story/behind-scenes-power-politics-making-ed/\">inside look\u003c/a> at how the process unfolded by the Bay Citizen today says the following: \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"... the contenders — Sheriff Michael Hennessey, former Mayor Art Agnos and Aaron Peskin, the chairman of the city’s Democratic Party — were deemed too liberal by Pak, Brown and Newsom, who are more moderate.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:58 p.m. Here comes The Daly Show. To wit: \"Go along to get along\" isn't a good thing. He cites his words from Tuesday. \"Something is not right, not just with process,\" but in, I quote: \"The world.\" If Lee surprises Daly, then he'll apologize. But in Lee, all Daly sees is status quote. As \"candidate Obama said, we need change...what we have in front of us will not address fundamental injustices in SF.\" He's a no vote. But I wonder: Ed Lee will just be an interim mayor, no? Would even a dyed-in-the-wool progressive interim be able to galvanzie any change in business as usual?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:54 p.m. Eric Mar's up. His recent \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2011/01/04/the-daily-show-san-francisco-happy-meal-toy-ban/\">appearance\u003c/a> on The Daily Show comes to mind. Didn't look too good there, coming off better now. He's a yes vote. Rose Pak said \"it's a done deal,\" and boy it sure looks that way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:52 p.m. Avalos speaking, sound like a yes. Looks like it's going to be a landslide. 10-1? A vote against Lee would be something \"setting us way back.\" Like Campos, he has questions about process. Doesn't like Newsom's delaying his Lt Guv swearing-in in order to influence the process for interim mayor. But he's going to vote yes. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:51 p.m. \u003ca href=\"http://twitter.com/#!/njudah\">N Judah Chronicles\u003c/a> is tweeting the meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:45 p.m. Campos talks about significance to Chinese-American community. Knows what it's like when a community that's been excluded feels one of their own will take charge. Says the supes should keep this in mind. Hopes Ed Lee will provide \"due process\" rights for all citizens. Talking about SF as \u003ca href=\"http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/05/06/san-francisco-sanctuary-c_n_566954.html\">sanctuary city\u003c/a>. Wants to make sure Lee's on board with that. He's going to vote for Lee. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:40 p.m. David Campos now speaking. Talking about nomination for Hennessey, which failed. Says Hennessey didn't deserve treatment he received, accepted nomination only after hearing from peopel allied with Newsom and Newsom himself. Says he's been open to Lee serving in role of interim mayor. Campos says he's spoken to Le twice now. Doesn't like the process that's taken shape. At end of day, he's \"very disappointed\" in process and way votes have shifted, the real question is \"Can Ed Lee do this job?\" Yes, Campos says. He's no \"lightweight,\" as Aaron Peskin said in a press report. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:38 p.m. Rose Pak is there, apparently. Daly says if nominations were opened up again, he'd \"go ahead and nominate Rose Pak.\" That's an allusion to Pak's behind-the-scenes role, along with Willie Brown, in getting Lee to this point. He's really going after her now. Daly said same thing to \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfexaminer.com/blogs/under-dome/2011/01/daly-why-not-just-make-pak-mayor\">Examiner\u003c/a> today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:35 p.m. \"If (he) ends up being appointed successor mayor,\" for the 12 months following that term, he cannot have full-time employment from the city and county of San Francisco\" after. That's the whole issue of Lee wanting an exemption from being excluded from taking over his old job as City Administrator. Talk is they are going to change that law to accomodate Lee's candidacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:33 p.m. Daly cites this \u003ca href=\"http://www.baycitizen.org/politics/story/newsoms-dual-role-raises-legal-quandary/\">Bay Citizen article\u003c/a>: \"Newsom's Dual Role Raises Legal Quandary.\" Says Bay Citizen's \u003ca href=\"http://www.baycitizen.org/politics/story/behind-scenes-power-politics-making-ed/\">piece\u003c/a> today delving into how Lee got made as the candidate was \"best piece of journalism\" he's seen in city in a long time. (It was an excellent piece.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:30 p.m. Now Daly's embroiled in a complicated conversation about conflict-of-interest rules with an attorney whose name and position I didn't catch. Not sure who she represents. Daly says he's \"exhausted himself\" on this point. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:25 p.m. Daly asks why Dufty is not conflicted out of this vote as he is running for mayor. Cites example of Dennis Herrera, City Attorney, who recused himself from consulting on interim mayor decision. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:23 p.m. \u003ca href=\"http://twitter.com/#!/mlnow\">Mission Local\u003c/a> is tweeting the meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3:22 p.m. Eric Mar says he was \"deeply troubled\" with breakdown of civlity at last meeting. Votes to re-open nominations. Dufty says no. Mar is aye. Maxwell is no. Mirkarimi aye. Alioto-Pier no. Avalos no. Campos aye. Five ayes, six nos, Daly loses that one. He will not be able to submit a new name for nomination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Long story short: Former mayor Willie Brown and influential Chinese-American political activist Rose Pak, in league with the Newsom administration, engineered the \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2011/01/05/edlee-vs-willie-brown/\">nomination\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It seems unlikely to me that this politically potent team would have floated Lee without making sure that they at least had the votes on the incoming Board. In fact, Pak is so confident that Lee will be the next mayor, she told KQED's Tara Siler yesterday that Lee's nomination was a \"done deal, no ifs ands or buts.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pak was attending a \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2011/01/06/chinese-chamber-of-commerce-says-ed-lee-will-issue-statement-today/\">press conference\u003c/a> set up by the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, set up to show support for Lee from the Chinese-American community. Pak defended Lee's progressive credentials and criticized his detractors on the Board:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/01/RosePak.mp3\">\u003cem>Rose Pak defends Ed Lee against the criticism of progressive supervisors\u003c/em>\u003c/a>[audio:http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/01/RosePak.mp3]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But this article from the \u003ca href=\"http://sfappeal.com/news/2011/01/ed-lee-progressive-or-willie.php\">SF Appeal\u003c/a> yesterday takes some issue with that:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Ed Lee has close ties to Pak, who has close ties to Willie Brown and Newsom...And if Ed Lee retains Newsom's chief of staff Steve Kava, as he is almost certain to do?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It means Willie Brown and Rose Pak run City Hall for another year,\" said one local politician. \"Just like they have for the last 15 years.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>That's something Daly would agree with. \"Why not cut out the middleman and just make Rose Pak the next mayor?\" Daly is quoted as saying in the \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfexaminer.com/blogs/under-dome/2011/01/daly-why-not-just-make-pak-mayor\">Examiner\u003c/a> today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maybe.

The big item on its agenda: Whether it should proceed to appoint an interim mayor to replace Gavin Newsom, California’s not-quite-lieutenant governor. The board held a long back and forth over the legalities involved. Supervisor Chris Daly, whose term will end Saturday, was all for going ahead. Supervisor Sean Elsbernd warned that doing so would create all sorts of legal uncertainties. The board then put aside the issue while it cleared the agenda of secondary matters. At 7 p.m., it started taking public comment—most in favor of getting on with it and picking an interim mayor—and now it’s proceeding. This will be interesting, even if it only really appeals to San Francisco city politics geeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:31 p.m.: \u003c/strong>So tonight’s takeaway: No new interim mayor, and no new vote until Friday, leaving plenty of time for more intriguin’ and infightin’ at City Hall. And maybe Chris Daly will expand on his plans to run for mayor and “haunt” his foes. We’ll have more on the story tomorrow morning here at News Fix and on the air at \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/news/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">KQED News\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:26 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Now a roll call on the continuance until Friday. That motion wins, 6-5, with Sophie Maxwell joining Avalos, Campos, Daly, Mar, and Mirkarimi. So the vote has been put off for three days. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:24 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Avalos once again asks for the courtesy of a delay so that there can be direct consultation with Ed Lee. He suggests continuing the vote until Friday afternoon. Mirkarimi tries to get a quick approval of that, and everyone laughs. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:21 p.m.:\u003c/strong> David Chiu now clarifies that this is a “pre-ratification vote”—and that whatever happens, the board will have to go through this again next Tuesday to ratify tonight’s vote. (So, a voice in my head asks, is this all just sound and fury?) \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:14 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Ross Mirkarimi, another Hennessey supporter, also asks the board to hold off approving Lee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:12 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Campos also says the board has nothing to lose by delaying vote on Lee because they’ll have to hold a follow-up vote once Gavin Newsom is formally out as mayor (and in as lieutenant governor). “I think I’ve made it clear where I want this to go tonight, but I want to be part of a broad coalition” to lead the city forward. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:10 p.m.:\u003c/strong> David Campos is next. He, too, says he wants to talk to Ed Lee before approving him as interim mayor. “There are members of the board who are open to him if we get a chance to talk to him, and we just want that chance.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:05 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Or maybe not. We’re back talking about the mayor. John Avalos says he talked to all the nominees for the interim mayor’s job, and that Ed Lee said he wasn’t interested. Further, Avalos says, Lee is currently in Hong Kong, and Avalos says the vote should be put off until there’s a chance to talk to him about whether he wants the job that’s about to be thrust upon him. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:02 p.m.: \u003c/strong>The supervisors are all sitting down. But the first order of business now is about a new Civic Center community business district. Hmmmm. This could go on … \u003cem>forever\u003c/em>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:55 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Still waiting for the board to come back. Some more behind-the-scenes stuff from The Bay Citizen’s Gerry Shih (via Twitter):\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://twitter.com/gerryshih\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">gerryshih \u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nDufty says meeting with Gavin during recess was simply to “vet” Ed Lee and to make sure that Lee could return to admin job after intrim myr\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>9:43 p.m.: The Supes are due back in a couple minutes. Just to recap: All was sweetness and light, by board standards, after the supervisors went through the first two inconclusive rounds of voting. Both Sheriff Michael Hennessey and city Chief Administrative Officer got five votes out of the necessary six on the second ballot. Supervisor Bevan Dufty, who emerged as the swing vote, then asked for a recess. Reporters at City Hall said Dufty then visited City Hall Room 200, the mayor’s office. When he emerged and the board reconvened, he announced he’d vote for Lee. That clearly shocked Avalos and Supervisor Chris Daly, who both were pushing Hennessey as the progressive choice. Dufty’s announcement prompted Eric Mar to say he’d jump from Hennessey to Lee, at which point Daly lost it, as described below. Daly has already gone into the bar business, but now he says he’ll run for mayor, too, to get even with those he feel crossed him on this vote. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:22 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Recess or no recess, Chris Daly continues his tirade in terms that are crass even by his standards:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://twitter.com/#!/gerryshih\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@gerryshih\u003c/a> Chris Daly just announced to his candidacy for mayor to press corps. “I’m going to win. F— these m———–s.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://twitter.com/sfbg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sfbg \u003c/a>SF Bay Guardian\u003cbr>\nDaly says he’s running for mayor, he’s raging like a bull\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>On Twitter, \u003ca href=\"http://twitter.com/#!/snobographer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@snobographer\u003c/a> suggests Daly has just coined “the most awesome campaign slogan ever!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:12 p.m.: \u003c/strong>But that vote won’t happen right now, because John Avalos wants an hour’s recess. “My head is spinning,” he says. He wants to confer with someone, somewhere. Daly erupts again, denouncing Dufty for his earlier recess call, during which he apparently conferred with Newsom and agreed to vote for Lee. The recess is until 9:45. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:11 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Mirkarimi is complaining about the process and how “pre-orchestrated” the sudden consensus over Lee seems to be. But all that remains is a vote. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:10 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Eric Mar switches his vote from Hennessey to Lee. Both San Francisco and Oakland will have Asian-American mayors if the vote proceeds. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:09 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Ed Lee will be the next mayor when the vote happens—albeit on an interim basis. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:07 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Mirkarimi says he doesn’t like the way things are degenerating due to whatever “intrigue is being brokered.” He withdraws Art Agnos’s name from consideration. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:06 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Daly is carrying on. Chiu is trying to get the roll called. Daly is still carrying on. “Go ahead and call the sheriff,” he says. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:02 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Now Bevan Dufty: After conferring with the mayor, it looks like he’s going for Ed Lee. He says he’ll live with his vote. Alioto-Pier praises Dufty for his “strength. This is a great decision.” Daly interrupts repeatedly–off mike on the TV signal–and Alioto-Pier suggests that maybe someone should call the sheriff. That gets a whoop from the audience. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9 p.m.\u003c/strong> Chris Daly is off his good behavior now. He says the board is on the verge of making a huge political fumble for progressive politics in the city. He’s blaming Chiu. “I will haunt you,” he promises. “I will politically haunt you for the biggest fumble in the history of San Francisco progressive politics. It’s on.” He gets a smattering of applause for that. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:59 p.m.: \u003c/strong>The supervisors are back, and Mirkarimi is asking what evidence there is that any of those nominated are willing and ready to serve. The board clerk says she’s making inquiries now, and Board President Chiu says that he’s talked to all four of the nominees and that they’ve expressed an interest in serving. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:53 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Some interesting analysis of the vote (and good old City Hall color) by way of the Bay Citizen’s Gerry Shih: \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\n\u003ca href=\"http://twitter.com/#!/gerryshih\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gerry Shih\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nSteve Jones of @sfbg sez Maxwell and Dufty just walked outta Room 200 — Gavin is still in the building. dealmaking abounds? … \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>… Good chance Ed Harrington’s name will surface in next round after recess…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>… Progressives are furious during recess, accuse Dufty of trying to play kingmaker to further his own mayoral ambitions\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:26 p.m.\u003c/strong> We’re going to have to go back to our other paying gig—editing the news for tomorrow morning’s newscasts—but here’s the takeaway from the first two rounds. The board is split on Sheriff Michael Hennessey and Chief Administrative Officer Ed Lee. Supervisors Daly, Mar, Mirkarimi, Avalos and Campos voted for Hennessey on each round; Chiu, Chu, Elsbernd, and Alioto-Pier did the same for Lee, with Maxwell joining them on the second round. Bevan Dufty is the de facto swing vote, having suggested he’d go for Hennessey but having voted for no one on the first two rounds. You wonder who will be twisting whose arm during the 20-minute stand-down. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:22 p.m.:\u003c/strong> The second round doesn’t change much, and now the board’s going on recess. But before they take the break, Chris Daly asks Bevan Dufty to explain himself. Dufty, despite saying earlier he’d vote no on the first round just to let a consensus reveal itself, voted no to every candidate again on the second round. In fact, he’s the only board member who hasn’t voted yes to anyone so far. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:18 p.m.\u003c/strong> Now they’ll go to a second round, with new nominations possible. Daly is suggesting that they proceed immediately to a vote in the hope that Dufty, who essentially abstained from the first round, would change his vote and vote for Hennessey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:16 p.m.\u003c/strong> In the first round, no one gets the needed six votes. Hennessey got 5 yes, 6 no; Lee got 4 yes, 7 no; Agnos got 4 yes, 7 no; and Peskin got 3 yes, 8 no. (Each candidate was voted on in turn, and each supervisor voted yes or no on each).\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>\u003cbr>\n8:13 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Here’s the roll call vote. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:11 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Supervisor Sophie Maxwell: Says she preferred Ed Harrington, general manager of the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission. Unless I missed it, she didn’t say who she’ll vote for. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:08 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Board President David Chiu says he’ll vote for Ed Lee. Praises his experience and his “old-school progressive values.” Hennessey 4, Lee 3, Agnos 1, abstain 1. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:03 p.m.:\u003c/strong> John Avalos, the supervisor who has been most outspoken about his desire to appoint an interim mayor, says he feels closest politically to Sheriff Hennessey and that’s who he’ll vote for on the first round. That’s Hennessey 4, Lee 2, Agnos 1 and one abstention. Hennessey’s the only one who can win in this declared first round of voting, and he’s got three more supervisors to get the two votes he needs. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Supervisor Bevan Dufty notes that when he spoke to Lee about the interim mayor’s job last fall, Lee said he wasn’t interested. He strongly suggests he supports Hennessey but that he won’t vote for anyone in the first round of votes to allow everyone else on the board to express their preference first. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>7:57 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Supervisor Carmen Chu supports Ed Lee. That’s two votes for Lee. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>7:55 p.m.\u003c/strong> Supervisor Eric Mar: Likes Lee a lot, but thinks that he’s too valuable to city as chief administrative officer. Praises both Agnos and Hennessey, but says he’ll “be supportive of Sheriff Hennessey. That’s Hennessey 3, Agnos 1, Lee 1. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>7:51 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Finally someone we haven’t heard from—Supervisor Michaela Alioto-Pier. She’s talking up Ed Lee, whom she refers to as “Ed … Mr. Lee.” If you’re keeping score at home, the tentative vote is Hennessey 2, Agnos 1, Lee 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>7:47 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Mirkarimi’s turn, and he wants to remind everyone that Art Agnos is his choice (and ought to be theirs, too). He says it’s time to dust off the history books to look at Agnos’s tenure (January 1988-January 1992) and consider how well he led the city through a tough fiscal period. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>7:43 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Well, here’s a bit of a surprise: Chris Daly, who nominated Aaron Peskin, says he’ll support Michael Hennessey as interim mayor. Not surprisingly, Campos also rises to praise Hennessey, whom he nominated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>7:40 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Now they’re going to talk about the qualifications of each of the candidates.

The big item on its agenda: Whether it should proceed to appoint an interim mayor to replace Gavin Newsom, California’s not-quite-lieutenant governor. The board held a long back and forth over the legalities involved. Supervisor Chris Daly, whose term will end Saturday, was all for going ahead. Supervisor Sean Elsbernd warned that doing so would create all sorts of legal uncertainties. The board then put aside the issue while it cleared the agenda of secondary matters. At 7 p.m., it started taking public comment—most in favor of getting on with it and picking an interim mayor—and now it’s proceeding. This will be interesting, even if it only really appeals to San Francisco city politics geeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:31 p.m.: \u003c/strong>So tonight’s takeaway: No new interim mayor, and no new vote until Friday, leaving plenty of time for more intriguin’ and infightin’ at City Hall. And maybe Chris Daly will expand on his plans to run for mayor and “haunt” his foes. We’ll have more on the story tomorrow morning here at News Fix and on the air at \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/news/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">KQED News\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:26 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Now a roll call on the continuance until Friday. That motion wins, 6-5, with Sophie Maxwell joining Avalos, Campos, Daly, Mar, and Mirkarimi. So the vote has been put off for three days. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:24 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Avalos once again asks for the courtesy of a delay so that there can be direct consultation with Ed Lee. He suggests continuing the vote until Friday afternoon. Mirkarimi tries to get a quick approval of that, and everyone laughs. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

(So, a voice in my head asks, is this all just sound and fury?) \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:14 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Ross Mirkarimi, another Hennessey supporter, also asks the board to hold off approving Lee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:12 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Campos also says the board has nothing to lose by delaying vote on Lee because they’ll have to hold a follow-up vote once Gavin Newsom is formally out as mayor (and in as lieutenant governor). “I think I’ve made it clear where I want this to go tonight, but I want to be part of a broad coalition” to lead the city forward. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:10 p.m.:\u003c/strong> David Campos is next. He, too, says he wants to talk to Ed Lee before approving him as interim mayor. “There are members of the board who are open to him if we get a chance to talk to him, and we just want that chance.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:05 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Or maybe not. We’re back talking about the mayor. John Avalos says he talked to all the nominees for the interim mayor’s job, and that Ed Lee said he wasn’t interested. Further, Avalos says, Lee is currently in Hong Kong, and Avalos says the vote should be put off until there’s a chance to talk to him about whether he wants the job that’s about to be thrust upon him. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:02 p.m.: \u003c/strong>The supervisors are all sitting down. But the first order of business now is about a new Civic Center community business district. Hmmmm. This could go on … \u003cem>forever\u003c/em>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:55 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Still waiting for the board to come back. Some more behind-the-scenes stuff from The Bay Citizen’s Gerry Shih (via Twitter):\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://twitter.com/gerryshih\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">gerryshih \u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nDufty says meeting with Gavin during recess was simply to “vet” Ed Lee and to make sure that Lee could return to admin job after intrim myr\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>9:43 p.m.: The Supes are due back in a couple minutes. Just to recap: All was sweetness and light, by board standards, after the supervisors went through the first two inconclusive rounds of voting. Both Sheriff Michael Hennessey and city Chief Administrative Officer got five votes out of the necessary six on the second ballot. Supervisor Bevan Dufty, who emerged as the swing vote, then asked for a recess. Reporters at City Hall said Dufty then visited City Hall Room 200, the mayor’s office. When he emerged and the board reconvened, he announced he’d vote for Lee. That clearly shocked Avalos and Supervisor Chris Daly, who both were pushing Hennessey as the progressive choice. Dufty’s announcement prompted Eric Mar to say he’d jump from Hennessey to Lee, at which point Daly lost it, as described below. Daly has already gone into the bar business, but now he says he’ll run for mayor, too, to get even with those he feel crossed him on this vote. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:22 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Recess or no recess, Chris Daly continues his tirade in terms that are crass even by his standards:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://twitter.com/#!/gerryshih\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@gerryshih\u003c/a> Chris Daly just announced to his candidacy for mayor to press corps. “I’m going to win.

He wants to confer with someone, somewhere. Daly erupts again, denouncing Dufty for his earlier recess call, during which he apparently conferred with Newsom and agreed to vote for Lee. The recess is until 9:45. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:11 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Mirkarimi is complaining about the process and how “pre-orchestrated” the sudden consensus over Lee seems to be. But all that remains is a vote. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:10 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Eric Mar switches his vote from Hennessey to Lee. Both San Francisco and Oakland will have Asian-American mayors if the vote proceeds. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:09 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Ed Lee will be the next mayor when the vote happens—albeit on an interim basis. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:07 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Mirkarimi says he doesn’t like the way things are degenerating due to whatever “intrigue is being brokered.” He withdraws Art Agnos’s name from consideration. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:06 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Daly is carrying on. Chiu is trying to get the roll called. Daly is still carrying on. “Go ahead and call the sheriff,” he says. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:02 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Now Bevan Dufty: After conferring with the mayor, it looks like he’s going for Ed Lee. He says he’ll live with his vote. Alioto-Pier praises Dufty for his “strength. This is a great decision.” Daly interrupts repeatedly–off mike on the TV signal–and Alioto-Pier suggests that maybe someone should call the sheriff. That gets a whoop from the audience. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9 p.m.\u003c/strong> Chris Daly is off his good behavior now. He says the board is on the verge of making a huge political fumble for progressive politics in the city. He’s blaming Chiu. “I will haunt you,” he promises. “I will politically haunt you for the biggest fumble in the history of San Francisco progressive politics. It’s on.” He gets a smattering of applause for that. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:59 p.m.: \u003c/strong>The supervisors are back, and Mirkarimi is asking what evidence there is that any of those nominated are willing and ready to serve. The board clerk says she’s making inquiries now, and Board President Chiu says that he’s talked to all four of the nominees and that they’ve expressed an interest in serving. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:53 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Some interesting analysis of the vote (and good old City Hall color) by way of the Bay Citizen’s Gerry Shih: \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\n\u003ca href=\"http://twitter.com/#!/gerryshih\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gerry Shih\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nSteve Jones of @sfbg sez Maxwell and Dufty just walked outta Room 200 — Gavin is still in the building. dealmaking abounds? … \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>… Good chance Ed Harrington’s name will surface in next round after recess…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>… Progressives are furious during recess, accuse Dufty of trying to play kingmaker to further his own mayoral ambitions\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:26 p.m.\u003c/strong> We’re going to have to go back to our other paying gig—editing the news for tomorrow morning’s newscasts—but here’s the takeaway from the first two rounds. The board is split on Sheriff Michael Hennessey and Chief Administrative Officer Ed Lee. Supervisors Daly, Mar, Mirkarimi, Avalos and Campos voted for Hennessey on each round; Chiu, Chu, Elsbernd, and Alioto-Pier did the same for Lee, with Maxwell joining them on the second round. Bevan Dufty is the de facto swing vote, having suggested he’d go for Hennessey but having voted for no one on the first two rounds. You wonder who will be twisting whose arm during the 20-minute stand-down. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:22 p.m.:\u003c/strong> The second round doesn’t change much, and now the board’s going on recess. But before they take the break, Chris Daly asks Bevan Dufty to explain himself. Dufty, despite saying earlier he’d vote no on the first round just to let a consensus reveal itself, voted no to every candidate again on the second round. In fact, he’s the only board member who hasn’t voted yes to anyone so far. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:18 p.m.\u003c/strong> Now they’ll go to a second round, with new nominations possible. Daly is suggesting that they proceed immediately to a vote in the hope that Dufty, who essentially abstained from the first round, would change his vote and vote for Hennessey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:16 p.m.\u003c/strong> In the first round, no one gets the needed six votes. Hennessey got 5 yes, 6 no; Lee got 4 yes, 7 no; Agnos got 4 yes, 7 no; and Peskin got 3 yes, 8 no. (Each candidate was voted on in turn, and each supervisor voted yes or no on each).\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>\u003cbr>\n8:13 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Here’s the roll call vote. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:11 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Supervisor Sophie Maxwell: Says she preferred Ed Harrington, general manager of the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission. Unless I missed it, she didn’t say who she’ll vote for. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:08 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Board President David Chiu says he’ll vote for Ed Lee. Praises his experience and his “old-school progressive values.” Hennessey 4, Lee 3, Agnos 1, abstain 1. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:03 p.m.:\u003c/strong> John Avalos, the supervisor who has been most outspoken about his desire to appoint an interim mayor, says he feels closest politically to Sheriff Hennessey and that’s who he’ll vote for on the first round. That’s Hennessey 4, Lee 2, Agnos 1 and one abstention. Hennessey’s the only one who can win in this declared first round of voting, and he’s got three more supervisors to get the two votes he needs. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Supervisor Bevan Dufty notes that when he spoke to Lee about the interim mayor’s job last fall, Lee said he wasn’t interested. He strongly suggests he supports Hennessey but that he won’t vote for anyone in the first round of votes to allow everyone else on the board to express their preference first. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>7:57 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Supervisor Carmen Chu supports Ed Lee. That’s two votes for Lee. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>7:55 p.m.\u003c/strong> Supervisor Eric Mar: Likes Lee a lot, but thinks that he’s too valuable to city as chief administrative officer. Praises both Agnos and Hennessey, but says he’ll “be supportive of Sheriff Hennessey. That’s Hennessey 3, Agnos 1, Lee 1. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>7:51 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Finally someone we haven’t heard from—Supervisor Michaela Alioto-Pier. She’s talking up Ed Lee, whom she refers to as “Ed … Mr. Lee.” If you’re keeping score at home, the tentative vote is Hennessey 2, Agnos 1, Lee 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>7:47 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Mirkarimi’s turn, and he wants to remind everyone that Art Agnos is his choice (and ought to be theirs, too). He says it’s time to dust off the history books to look at Agnos’s tenure (January 1988-January 1992) and consider how well he led the city through a tough fiscal period. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>7:43 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Well, here’s a bit of a surprise: Chris Daly, who nominated Aaron Peskin, says he’ll support Michael Hennessey as interim mayor. Not surprisingly, Campos also rises to praise Hennessey, whom he nominated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>7:40 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Now they’re going to talk about the qualifications of each of the candidates. This will take awhile, I’m sure. They key here is that someone needs to get six of the 11 votes to get the appointment. And remember—this is all being done in a sort of legal limbo. No one’s quite sure whether an appointment will pass legal muster as long as Gavin Newsom is still mayor. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>7:37 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Chris Daly nominates former Board President Aaron Peskin. Nominations are closed. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>7:35 p.m.: \u003c/strong>Supervisor Sean Elsbernd nominates veteran city official Ed Lee, currently the city’s chief administrative officer. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>7:32 p.m.\u003c/strong> Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi nominates former Mayor Art Agnos.
