Eric Mar is running for Supervisor in District One
UPDATE: Eric writes us to say that it’s not official. He hasn’t 100% decided, apparently. Still, we’ll be really excited if he does run, and urge him very strongly to run. To whit: Run, Eric, Run!
It’s official. Longtime progressive School Board member Eric Mar is running for Supervisor in District 1. Eric will make a great supervisor. This is some of the best news I have gotten in a long time. I know the members of my local will be excited as well. He is a former member of SEIU Local 790 and is incredibly popular in our membership.

I would personally hate to see this particular idealogue on the Board of Supervisors. I will be curious to see how well he fares in the district election.

I’m with Robert on this one. I think Eric’s great. I’ll be excited to have him on the Board.

Thanks Sasha, but are you with me on Jack Daly for Mayor?

No way. I’m firmly in the Sarah Daly for Mayor camp. I want a mayor who’s not afraid to say what she thinks! Although Jack could continue the current mayor’s tradition of throwing temper tantrums.

I read that he was running on sfbg’s blog I think…
