SF Gate reports partial returns show Sheriff Ross Mirkarimi with 31% support to opponent Hennessy's 62%.
That's down the list, though, more important to SF voters rejected a proposal to restrict Airbnb and construction of luxuriy housing in the Mission District.
Also, in Houston Texas this time, voters overwhelmingly rejected a transgender-rights ordinance that would allow penises in girls and women bathrooms. The losers vow to keep on fighting.
No doubt.
And they know by experience that it's just a matter of time that nag nag nagging like erosion really does work even if at geologic pace it still works. They are right. Eventually they will have what they want. Even if they must publish names of donors illegally. Even if they have IRS agents release private and protected information illegally. Even if they have to drive good people out of their jobs immorally. Even if they must blacklist. Even if they must gain institutional capture over generations, like erosion they will keep at it until they have what they want even while opening new areas for agitation. That is what experience shows them. "No" to a salesman means, "please, more information. Much, much, more."

I'm quite used to mixed-sex bathrooms. What's the big problem anyway? I guess it's a problem with large crowds. In that case then a third option is not unreasonable.
But this is not a real problem. Speaking from experience with public bathrooms and problems with digestion in public. A few incidents come to mind. In one such instance at Whole Foods a line was formed at the men's bathroom and nothing at women's so I burst into the women's did my poo and left with no problem. Coming out and passing the same line of guys was a bit odd, but not of them broke rank.
Another emergency at Ace Hardware a key is needed. I cannot say that the woman interjecting herself at that critical moment in that critical spot is lesbian but her t-shirt sleeve rolled up holding a package of Lucky Strikes and the wallet in her front pocket attached by a chain to a belt loop of her blue jeans and her motorcycle boots were suggestive, seeing me rushing and sensing emergency she said, "Occupied!" She whipped out a key and opened women's door for me before I got there. She was fast. And I thank her profusely.
The whole issue is contrived. Save for schools and auditoriums. But they'll have a law affecting all businesses. Eventually. And even in Texas.
