Survivors could appeal an outcome, and consequences for the accused would depend on what the survivor pursues, including private or public admonishment or prohibition from attending Democratic club events.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The draft policy also suggests that beginning in January 2025, candidates seeking endorsement must complete and pass sexual harassment training.

It was upended last week when District Attorney George Gascón announced he would step down on Oct. 18, nearly three months early, and weeks before Election Day. Gascón said last year that he wouldn't run for reelection but had been expected to serve out his term.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote]The four district attorney hopefuls agree on many issues. Their differences lie in their experience and approach to the job.[/pullquote]On Friday, Mayor London Breed appointed the candidate she endorsed as interim DA, former prosecutor Suzy Loftus, to replace Gascón. The surprise announcement sparked a backlash from other candidates and their supporters. Protesters decrying election interference and Loftus’ time on the city's Police Commission stormed Portsmouth Square, where the announcement was going to be made.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later, at a Chinese restaurant where the event was hastily moved, Breed defended her choice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I have confidence in Suzy Loftus and so that's why I made the decision,” she said. “If there was anyone else that I thought was better than what she would bring to the table then they would be the person that I would identify today.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11778714\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11778714\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/San-Francisco-District-Attorney_candidate_Nancy-Tung-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"San Francisco District Attorney candidate Nancy Tung in downtown San Francisco.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/San-Francisco-District-Attorney_candidate_Nancy-Tung-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/San-Francisco-District-Attorney_candidate_Nancy-Tung-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/San-Francisco-District-Attorney_candidate_Nancy-Tung-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/San-Francisco-District-Attorney_candidate_Nancy-Tung-qut-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/San-Francisco-District-Attorney_candidate_Nancy-Tung-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">San Francisco District Attorney candidate Nancy Tung in downtown San Francisco. \u003ccite>(Sheraz Sadiq/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The move further cements Loftus as the establishment candidate.

It was upended last week when District Attorney George Gascón announced he would step down on Oct. 18, nearly three months early, and weeks before Election Day.
