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>.

Right now, she’s letting a lot of criminals go,” Galavis said. “You can sense that there is a chaos within the DA’s office internally.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In response, Price said recall supporters were upset that she won the 2022 election, accusing them of trying to overturn the will of voters. \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12008868/east-bay-politicians-speak-out-against-recall-of-alameda-county-da-pamela-price\">That argument was bolstered\u003c/a> by longtime East Bay Rep.

I am disappointed, but I’m not surprised,” Alameda County Public Defender Brendon Woods said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of the same issues Price has been blamed for also happened under the leadership of former DA Nancy O’Malley, who is white, he said. “And she wasn’t blamed for it.

I think that’s because she tried to approach something differently. And because with that difference came a reaction and blame.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Price’s likely ouster comes as the effort to recall Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao was also ahead, with more than 65% of voters supporting the measure, based on early returns late Tuesday night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland resident Tarita Thomas said that while she has misgivings about Price’s performance in office, she still voted against the recall, calling the effort “an unnecessary expense.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that when we vote someone in, we vote that person in,” she said, noting she also voted against Thao’s recall. “Whoever gets in there fairly should have an opportunity to do their job.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thomas said she voted for Price in 2022 but, in hindsight, would probably have voted for someone else.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And yet I feel like I don’t have a right to say recall her,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Right now, she’s letting a lot of criminals go,” Galavis said. “You can sense that there is a chaos within the DA’s office internally.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In response, Price said recall supporters were upset that she won the 2022 election, accusing them of trying to overturn the will of voters. \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12008868/east-bay-politicians-speak-out-against-recall-of-alameda-county-da-pamela-price\">That argument was bolstered\u003c/a> by longtime East Bay Rep.

I am disappointed, but I’m not surprised,” Alameda County Public Defender Brendon Woods said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of the same issues Price has been blamed for also happened under the leadership of former DA Nancy O’Malley, who is white, he said. “And she wasn’t blamed for it.

Honestly, I really would have never thought I would see him having a second term in office,” said Lopez, who is a second-year political science student at Cal Poly Pomona.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Lopez, the stakes were personal. Both of her parents are undocumented immigrants from Mexico who have lived in the U.S. for almost 20 years. Trump has pledged to enact mass deportation of undocumented immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Trump won for the first time in 2016, Lopez was 11 years old. 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. Many more have undocumented family members. About \u003ca class=\"external\" href=\"https://www.cde.ca.gov/sp/ml/t3immdemgraphics.asp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">165,000\u003c/a> California students are recent immigrants themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If we thought teaching was hard yesterday, wait for today’s questions like, ‘Is Trump going to send me back to the gangs?’ and ‘Is he going to deport my mother/father/brother/cousin?’” wrote teacher Larry Ferlazzo on X (formerly Twitter) Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Xilonin Cruz-González, deputy director of the advocacy organization Californians Together, said schools must reach out now to immigrant families to ensure they feel welcome and safe in school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Even though it feels scary, especially for immigrant families, because of the rhetoric we’ve heard through the election cycle and we anticipate we will continue to hear, it’s important to remember, especially in California, we have legal protections for immigrant students,” Cruz-González said. “We have federal protections that require us to make sure our schools are safe and welcoming for all students. 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",

Honestly, I really would have never thought I would see him having a second term in office,” said Lopez, who is a second-year political science student at Cal Poly Pomona.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Lopez, the stakes were personal. Both of her parents are undocumented immigrants from Mexico who have lived in the U.S. for almost 20 years. Trump has pledged to enact mass deportation of undocumented immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

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. Many more have undocumented family members. About \u003ca class=\"external\" href=\"https://www.cde.ca.gov/sp/ml/t3immdemgraphics.asp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">165,000\u003c/a> California students are recent immigrants themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If we thought teaching was hard yesterday, wait for today’s questions like, ‘Is Trump going to send me back to the gangs?’ and ‘Is he going to deport my mother/father/brother/cousin?’” wrote teacher Larry Ferlazzo on X (formerly Twitter) Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Xilonin Cruz-González, deputy director of the advocacy organization Californians Together, said schools must reach out now to immigrant families to ensure they feel welcome and safe in school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Even though it feels scary, especially for immigrant families, because of the rhetoric we’ve heard through the election cycle and we anticipate we will continue to hear, it’s important to remember, especially in California, we have legal protections for immigrant students,” Cruz-González said. “We have federal protections that require us to make sure our schools are safe and welcoming for all students. 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.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

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>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Called by the Associated Press just before 9 p.m. on election night, the measure accomplished the rare feat of winning the support of a majority of voters in all 58 of California’s politically diverse counties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure reverses key parts of a decade-old voter initiative that reduced penalties for drug possession and low-level thefts, and in so doing, diverted thousands of people from prison.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The groundswell of support for Proposition 36 – a clear backlash against the state’s more progressive-leaning criminal justice policies – underscores the degree of concern among residents across the state over real or perceived rising crime rates, particularly those related to retail theft and the ongoing fentanyl crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Check out KQED’s

Proposition 36, which the Associated Press called just before 9 p.m. Tuesday night, will reverse key parts of a decade-old voter initiative that reduced penalties for drug possession and low-level thefts and diverted thousands of people from prison. As of Wednesday afternoon, more than 70% of votes counted were in favor of the measure, with just over half of total votes counted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 36 came largely in response to concerns over retail theft and the fentanyl crisis, despite Gov. Gavin Newsom’s efforts to convince Californians the problems could be handled without rolling back Proposition 47, the 2014 law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Proposition 3: Same-sex marriage\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A constitutional amendment to protect the right of same-sex couples to marry also succeeded, garnering \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/elections/results/california/proposition-3\">61% of votes counted as of Wednesday afternoon\u003c/a>. Proposition 3 will remove language defining marriage as “between a man and a woman” that was placed in the state constitution after voters passed Proposition 8 in 2008.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure will also add language declaring marriage “a fundamental right.” In practice, same-sex marriages have been legal in California since 2013, when a U.S. Supreme Court ruling allowed them to resume. However, California Democratic lawmakers put this measure on the ballot to protect against possible federal changes to marriage protections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Proposition 35: Medi-Cal funding\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A third winning measure is Proposition 35, which will \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12012604/voters-approve-prop-35-choosing-medi-cal-funding-over-budget-flexibility\">shore up funding for Medi-Cal\u003c/a>, the public insurance program for lower-income Californians. The measure, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/elections/results/california/proposition-35\">which had 67% support as of early Wednesday afternoon\u003c/a>, will make a tax on health insurance companies permanent and prevent lawmakers from using the tax revenue to replace existing state Medi-Cal spending.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12013483]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, more than 14 million Californians — about a third of the state population — use Medi-Cal. However, with California’s reimbursement rate well below the national average, many providers won’t treat Medi-Cal patients. The measure is projected to generate more than $35 billion over the next four years. It’s backed by doctors, hospitals and clinics that want the money to go toward increased payments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Proposition 4: Funding climate projects\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Voters also approved a $10 billion bond measure to fund projects to help California prepare for the impacts of climate change. Proposition 4, which the Associated Press called late Wednesday morning, had the support of nearly 58% of voters, with just over half of all votes counted. The measure would improve water infrastructure such as reservoirs and groundwater storage; increase coastal resiliency and flood prevention; and address extreme heat and wildfire prevention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At least 40% of the funds must go to projects that benefit disadvantaged communities. If California does not take steps like this, the price tag for coping with climate impacts could cost $113 billion annually by 2050, according to a state analysis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All four measures that succeeded were popular across the state, according to Mark Baldassare, survey director at the nonpartisan Public Policy Institute of California. Proposition 36, the criminal justice measure, he noted, was showing particularly broad-based support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s one of those rare circumstances where it’s passing in every county. There are not many times where you see that kind of consensus about changing criminal policy,” Baldassare said. “The right to marriage equality, Proposition 3, also had very strong support but with more divisions across the state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Proposition 2: School repairs\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 2, another $10 billion bond measure that will empower the state to borrow funds to repair and upgrade aging schools, was also approved by voters. As of Wednesday evening, the measure held a commanding lead, with nearly 57% in favor – among the more than half of votes counted – prompting the AP to call the race.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unlike many other states, California doesn’t have a dedicated funding stream to maintain the state’s 10,000 public K–12 schools and 116 community colleges. The money must come via bond measures on the ballot. But in 2020, voters rejected the last one, a $15 billion statewide school construction bond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Live 2024 Election Results\" link1='https://www.kqed.org/elections/results/california,Learn about the results of the California Propositions' hero=https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/80/2024/09/Aside-California-Propositions-2024-General-Election-1200x1200-1.png]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>What failed\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Proposition 33: Rent control \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, a measure that would allow local governments to expand rent control failed to win support from a majority of voters, with more than 61% opposing it as of Wednesday afternoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12012553/californians-appear-to-reject-many-rent-control-measures'\">Proposition 33\u003c/a> would have permitted local governments to expand rent control by repealing a state law called the Costa-Hawkins Act, which bars rent regulations on single-family homes and units built after 1995 — and exempts landlords from rent control when a unit becomes vacant, allowing them to set their own rates for the next tenants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure would also have prevented the state from passing any new laws limiting local rent control. Voters rejected similar ballot measures in 2018 and 2020.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Proposition 5: Affordable housing and infrastructure\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Voters rejected \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/elections/results/california/proposition-5\">Proposition 5\u003c/a>, a measure intended to make it easier for local governments to pass bonds and raise taxes for affordable housing and infrastructure. Currently, those local measures require approval from two-thirds of voters, and many measures fail to reach that supermajority. Proposition 5 would have lowered the threshold for winning to 55%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Slightly more than 56% of voters opposed the measure by Friday morning, when AP called the result.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Proposition 6: Involuntary servitude\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\nA measure to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/elections/results/california/proposition-6\">prevent forced labor in California prisons\u003c/a> was called late Sunday, with 53.8% of voters rejecting the measure. Proposition 6 would’ve removed a provision in the state constitution that allows jails and prisons to impose involuntary servitude as punishment for a crime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In practice, the measure would’ve prevented prison officials from disciplining an incarcerated person for refusing a work assignment. It comes out of a recommendation by a task force studying reparations for Black Californians and follows states like Alabama and Colorado, which recently removed this relic of slavery from their constitutions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='More Election Coverage' tag='election-2024']\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>What hasn’t been called yet\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Proposition 32: Minimum wage\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Voters were narrowly leaning against raising the state’s minimum wage to $18 an hour, with 52% opposing the measure among votes counted as of Wednesday afternoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12012798/prop-32-measure-to-raise-californias-minimum-wage-remains-too-close-to-call\">Under Proposition 32\u003c/a>, California’s minimum wage would increase, by 2026, from the current minimum of $16 an hour. Businesses with 26 or more employees would have to immediately increase pay to $17 an hour and to $18 by 2025. Smaller businesses would have until 2026 to make the jump. A recent UC Berkeley study found that California’s law increasing the minimum wage for fast-food workers to $20 an hour has not reduced employment in the fast-food sector but, in some instances, resulted in slight price increases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Proposition 34: Prescription drug spending (sort of)\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Voters were narrowly favoring a landlord-backed measure that, on the surface, appears to be about prescription drug spending but, in actuality, targets only one health care provider — an organization that also supports rent control. Proposition 34, which had the support of 51.5% of voters as of Wednesday afternoon, would ostensibly restrict how health care providers can spend revenue from a federal program that allows them to purchase prescription drugs at a discount, then charge insurers market rate and use the difference to expand health services to disadvantaged groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure would require 98% of revenue from the program to go directly to patient care — but it’s tailored to only affect one provider, the AIDS Healthcare Foundation, which supports expanding rent control and opposes laws to require denser housing development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baldassare, of the Public Policy Institute of California, said the support for the two bond measures and the Medi-Cal tax indicated that voters wanted to make sure there would be sufficient funding for services such as health care and schools. But he said concerns about inflation and the cost of living took their toll on Propositions 32 and 33.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While a minimum wage increase and local rent control would generally be popular measures [benefiting] lower-income Californians, concern about what would be the hidden cost … and the unintended consequences hit a chord with people,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baldassare added that voters likely didn’t have enough information about several measures, including the one that would have lowered the voting threshold for raising local taxes and the one to eliminate involuntary servitude in prisons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think Propositions 5 and 6 are examples of measures put on the ballot by the Legislature and then there was very little discussion afterward of what they were about,” he said. “Who’s for and who’s against? Why should we support this?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story includes reporting from KQED’s Adhiti Bandlamudi, Farida Jhabvala Romero, Sukey Lewis, Guy Marzorati, Lesley McClurg, Daisy Nguyen, Vanessa Rancaño and Julie Small, and our partner CalMatters.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Proposition 36, which the Associated Press called just before 9 p.m. Tuesday night, will reverse key parts of a decade-old voter initiative that reduced penalties for drug possession and low-level thefts and diverted thousands of people from prison. As of Wednesday afternoon, more than 70% of votes counted were in favor of the measure, with just over half of total votes counted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 36 came largely in response to concerns over retail theft and the fentanyl crisis, despite Gov.

However, with California’s reimbursement rate well below the national average, many providers won’t treat Medi-Cal patients. The measure is projected to generate more than $35 billion over the next four years.

Proposition 4, which the Associated Press called late Wednesday morning, had the support of nearly 58% of voters, with just over half of all votes counted. The measure would improve water infrastructure such as reservoirs and groundwater storage; increase coastal resiliency and flood prevention; and address extreme heat and wildfire prevention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At least 40% of the funds must go to projects that benefit disadvantaged communities. If California does not take steps like this, the price tag for coping with climate impacts could cost $113 billion annually by 2050, according to a state analysis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All four measures that succeeded were popular across the state, according to Mark Baldassare, survey director at the nonpartisan Public Policy Institute of California. Proposition 36, the criminal justice measure, he noted, was showing particularly broad-based support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s one of those rare circumstances where it’s passing in every county. There are not many times where you see that kind of consensus about changing criminal policy,” Baldassare said. “The right to marriage equality, Proposition 3, also had very strong support but with more divisions across the state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Proposition 2: School repairs\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 2, another $10 billion bond measure that will empower the state to borrow funds to repair and upgrade aging schools, was also approved by voters. As of Wednesday evening, the measure held a commanding lead, with nearly 57% in favor – among the more than half of votes counted – prompting the AP to call the race.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unlike many other states, California doesn’t have a dedicated funding stream to maintain the state’s 10,000 public K–12 schools and 116 community colleges. The money must come via bond measures on the ballot. But in 2020, voters rejected the last one, a $15 billion statewide school construction bond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Businesses with 26 or more employees would have to immediately increase pay to $17 an hour and to $18 by 2025. Smaller businesses would have until 2026 to make the jump. A recent UC Berkeley study found that California’s law increasing the minimum wage for fast-food workers to $20 an hour has not reduced employment in the fast-food sector but, in some instances, resulted in slight price increases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Proposition 34: Prescription drug spending (sort of)\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Voters were narrowly favoring a landlord-backed measure that, on the surface, appears to be about prescription drug spending but, in actuality, targets only one health care provider — an organization that also supports rent control. Proposition 34, which had the support of 51.5% of voters as of Wednesday afternoon, would ostensibly restrict how health care providers can spend revenue from a federal program that allows them to purchase prescription drugs at a discount, then charge insurers market rate and use the difference to expand health services to disadvantaged groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure would require 98% of revenue from the program to go directly to patient care — but it’s tailored to only affect one provider, the AIDS Healthcare Foundation, which supports expanding rent control and opposes laws to require denser housing development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baldassare, of the Public Policy Institute of California, said the support for the two bond measures and the Medi-Cal tax indicated that voters wanted to make sure there would be sufficient funding for services such as health care and schools. But he said concerns about inflation and the cost of living took their toll on Propositions 32 and 33.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While a minimum wage increase and local rent control would generally be popular measures [benefiting] lower-income Californians, concern about what would be the hidden cost … and the unintended consequences hit a chord with people,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baldassare added that voters likely didn’t have enough information about several measures, including the one that would have lowered the voting threshold for raising local taxes and the one to eliminate involuntary servitude in prisons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think Propositions 5 and 6 are examples of measures put on the ballot by the Legislature and then there was very little discussion afterward of what they were about,” he said. “Who’s for and who’s against?

"content": "\u003cp>San Francisco voters have spoken, and they are ready for a shakeup on the school board. At a particularly tumultuous time for the city’s schools, the seven-person board appears likely to have four fresh faces come January.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/san-francisco-unified-school-district\">San Francisco Unified School District\u003c/a> reels from a botched school closure plan, the resignations of both the former board president and district superintendent, and an ongoing budget crisis, newcomers holding the majority of Board of Education seats could bring around big changes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most notable will be how the board chooses to handle school closures and mergers, which SFUSD’s leadership said were necessary to balance resources, but the outgoing board didn’t seem to have an appetite for after a poorly executed roll-out. The plan \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12011347/sf-schools-wont-close-yet-but-the-city-still-has-questions-about-huge-budget-cuts\">is now on ice\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, three of the four leading candidates as of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/elections/results/sanfrancisco/school#board-of-education\">latest update from city elections officials\u003c/a>, released Thursday afternoon, have indicated that closures need to be on the table as SFUSD prepares to announce massive budget cuts in December.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jaime Huling, who is almost guaranteed to win one of four available seats after taking a strong lead in first-choice votes, hasn’t shared her stance on future school closures, though she has been a vocal opponent of former Superintendent Matt Wayne’s proposal and the board’s handling of it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/jaimenina/status/1854079175864582426\">post on social media platform X\u003c/a> after polls closed Tuesday, she said, “I will always fight to protect our immigrant communities, trans kids, freedom of speech, and funding for education. We will not fail our kids.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But two other front-runners who campaigned alongside Huling — John Jersin and Parag Gupta — have indicated support for consolidating schools. The three coalesced with a broad range of support, including moderate political action committee GrowSF and the union representing SFUSD educators. Their messaging has been clear: “a fresh start for the SF School Board.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gupta, who sits in second place, told the \u003cem>San Francisco Chronicle’s \u003c/em>\u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/editorials/article/endorsement-sfusd-school-board-19757739.php\">editorial board\u003c/a> that he supports closing schools. He has a daughter attending the Chinese Immersion School at De Avila Elementary, one of the schools that would have taken in Chinese biliteracy students under Wayne’s plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jersin, sitting in fourth, has also said closures are likely necessary, and campaigned on bringing financial management and business experience to the school board as the district could approach a more than $400 million budget by 2027 without cost-saving measures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He has two kids in SFUSD schools and sits on the Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee, which keeps an eye on how the district uses funding allocated through tax-funded bonds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supryia Ray, who sits in third and is in position to join the board along with Huling, Gupta and Jersin, has stood out from the other likely newcomers as a rare voice questioning the board’s pause of school closures — despite denouncing Wayne’s handling of them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked to weigh in on future consolidation plans, she \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/RayforBOE/status/1849321821163884592\">posted on X\u003c/a> that “kicking the can down the road risks the quality of our kids’ education.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m committed to a long-term solution to ensure full staffing and support families impacted by any future closures,” Ray said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12010449\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-12010449 size-full\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241021-SFUSD-BREED-STATE-PRESSER-MD-08-KQED.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241021-SFUSD-BREED-STATE-PRESSER-MD-08-KQED.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241021-SFUSD-BREED-STATE-PRESSER-MD-08-KQED-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241021-SFUSD-BREED-STATE-PRESSER-MD-08-KQED-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241021-SFUSD-BREED-STATE-PRESSER-MD-08-KQED-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241021-SFUSD-BREED-STATE-PRESSER-MD-08-KQED-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/241021-SFUSD-BREED-STATE-PRESSER-MD-08-KQED-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">New Superintendent Maria Su laughs during a press event in front of the SFUSD offices in San Francisco on Oct. 21, 2024. \u003ccite>(Martin do Nascimento/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Of note, current board president Matt Alexander is trailing in fifth place, leaving him one spot out of a seat in his hunt for a second term.
