On June 2, after less than a year with Alan Wong as their mayorally-appointed supervisor, Sunset voters can take to the polls and vote on whether they want to keep Wong on through the end of 2026, or go with someone else.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the Nov. 3 general election<\/a>, the voters of the Sunset will get the chance to weigh in yet again \u2014\u00a0this time concerning who will be District 4\u2019s supervisor from Jan. 2027 through the end of 2030.\u00a0<\/p>\n Presumably district residents will vote for the same person in both elections, but anything\u2019s possible. It seems like just months ago that former District 4 Supervisor Joel Engardio was voted out of office<\/a> in a recall election, because it was just months ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n The next district supervisor, appointed by Mayor Daniel Lurie<\/a> in November, was a music teacher and former pet shop owner with no prior political experience. After she turned out to have been poorly vetted<\/a> and resigned, the mayor\u2019s office released a shortlist of possible replacements<\/a>, which included three of the five candidates in this race, Wong, Natalie Gee and Albert Chow.\u00a0<\/p>\n Gee emerged as a front-runner<\/a>, but her status as a legislative aide to a vocal critic of Lurie made her an unlikely pick. After other vetting issues emerged<\/a> with more contenders<\/a> on the mayor\u2019s shortlist (Chow included) Wong was successfully appointed to the position.\u00a0<\/p>\n This week\u2019s question: What is your No. 1 issue in this election and what do you plan to do about it? Please be specific.\u00a0<\/p>\n Albert Chow<\/p>\n Job: Owner of Great Wall Hardware<\/p>\n Age: 58<\/p>\n Residency: Homeowner, living in District 4 since 1978\u00a0<\/p>\n Transportation: Driving and walking<\/p>\n Education: Bachelor\u2019s degree from UC Berkeley<\/p>\n Languages: English, semi-fluent in Cantonese<\/p>\n My top priority as supervisor will be providing the district with real representation and leadership. The recent happenings in our district such as Prop. K, the Engardio recall, and the mismanagement of the appointment process, have left us feeling shut out and without proper representation.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n I will bring an authentic representation that will focus on uniting the Sunset, restoring our voice, and ensuring that the values and needs of our residents are being met. I will focus on strengthening public safety, funding and expanding education for our next generation, supporting our small businesses, growing our district in a way that \u2026 read more here<\/a>.<\/p>\n Endorsed by: Retired SFPD Commander Richard Corriea, Retired SFPD Commander Peter Walsh, President of United Irish Cultural Center Liam Reidy<\/p>\n Natalie Gee<\/p>\n Job: District 10 legislative aide<\/p>\n Age: 40<\/p>\n Residency: Renter, living in District 4 since 2021<\/p>\n Transportation: Driving, walking and Muni<\/p>\n Education: Bachelor\u2019s degree from San Francisco State University<\/p>\n Languages: English, Cantonese<\/p>\n Affordability. It\u2019s too expensive to live here, especially for families. As supervisor, I can help tackle this problem three ways:\u00a0<\/p>\n I will get more officers (especially bilingual ones) back on the streets to deter crime and reduce financial setbacks like having your car window smashed or your small business vandalized.<\/p>\n I will ensure that the ultra-wealthy (not everyday residents) pay more to keep our public services (like Muni) running so folks don\u2019t need to resort to more expensive alternatives.<\/p>\n Make the Sunset affordable by building workforce housing that is affordable for the working families that keep our city running.<\/p>\n Endorsed by: Former Mayor Art Agnos, Assemblymember Matt Haney, Supervisor Connie Chan, Myrna Melgar, Jackie Fielder, Shamann Walton, Chyanne Chen, Former Supervisor Gordon Mar, IFPTE 21, SEIU 1021, AFT 2121, San Francisco Tenants Union \u2026 read more here<\/a>.<\/p>\n Jeremy Greco<\/p>\n Job: Campus coordinator at Presidio Hill School<\/p>\n Age: 53<\/p>\n Residency: Renter, living in District 4 since 2001<\/p>\n Transportation: Driving<\/p>\n Education: Bachelor\u2019s degree from Cabrillo College, the American Academy of Dramatic Arts and San Francisco State University<\/p>\n Languages: English<\/p>\n My No. 1 issue is protecting Sunset Dunes. When I heard about closing the Upper Great Highway, I opposed it. I worried about traffic, seniors, and neighborhood impacts. But seeing what Sunset Dunes has become changed my mind. People walk, bike, gather, and connect there daily.\u00a0<\/p>\n After my mother-in-law passed away, my family attended an Ocean Calling ceremony at Sunset Dunes, where neighbors spoke names of loved ones at sunset. It was deeply moving. As supervisor, I will fight to keep the park a park, ensure safe access for seniors and families, and protect it by bringing neighbors together.<\/p>\n Endorsed by: N\/A<\/p>\n David Lee<\/p>\n Job: Educator at Laney College and San Francisco State University<\/p>\n Age: 57<\/p>\n Residency: Homeowner, living in D4 since September 2025<\/p>\n Transportation: Driving, biking, public transit and walking<\/p>\n Education: Bachelor\u2019s degree from Hamilton College, Master\u2019s degree from San Francisco State University<\/p>\n Languages: English. Can understand Cantonese, Mandarin, and Toishanese, but limited fluency.<\/p>\n The No. 1 issue in this election for the Sunset is infrastructure and emergency planning. The infrastructure is aging and in dire need of repair and improvements. The city isn\u2019t prepared for a major emergency. The PG&E blackout was a big test, and the city failed it.\u00a0<\/p>\n We need to make sure vulnerable populations get welfare checks and are served first. The Sunset needs an emergency plan and emergency protocols so that when vital services are cut off, first responders and emergency workers can get to people and provide help.<\/p>\n Endorsed by: Retired judge Quentin Kopp, Lillian Sing, Julie Tang, Supervisor Chyanne Chen, Former Supervisor Aaron Peskin, Sandra Lee Fewer, Sophie Maxwell, Former SFPD Commander Richard Corriea<\/p>\n Alan Wong<\/p>\n Job: Current District 4 Supervisor \/ Commander in California\u2019s National Guard<\/p>\n Age: 38<\/p>\n Residency: Renter.

Brazen retail theft and vehicle break-ins scare residents and tourists, hollow out commercial corridors, and undermine neighborhood confidence. While many San Franciscans feel safer than before, we must do more to shut down open-air drug dealing, fully staff the Police Department, and focus enforcement on drug dealers.\u00a0<\/p>\n At the same time, we must expand recovery and treatment programs that work. Public safety also means safer residential streets, fewer traffic dangers \u2014 especially around schools \u2014 and strong emergency preparedness so neighborhoods are ready for earthquakes, fires, and other disasters.<\/p>\n Endorsed by: Mayor Daniel Lurie, GrowSF, Lieutenant Governor Eleni Kounalakis, State Treasurer Fiona Ma, State Controller Malia Cohen, Congressmember Kevin Mullin, Assemblymember Catherine Stefani, Former Mayor Willie Brown, Sheriff Paul Miyamoto \u2026 read more here<\/a>.<\/p>\n Candidates are rotated alphabetically.
