I have no idea, I bought No because people told me nothing ever happens.

boosted! i’m interested in this because it will impact the SF rec & park dept’s work this year to figure out the type of park the community wants there. if it gets on the ballot they'll stop their work in anticipation.

@mikala I talked it over with claude and have some intel for you.

They need the same amount of signatures that they needed to recall the guy who championed the prop in the first place (~10,600 signatures). The recall needed signatures from district 4 voters specifically, while this ballot initiative can collect from any registered SF voter citywide. So the bar is arguably lower this time in terms of the percentage of eligible signers they need to reach.

That said, the recall had white-hot local anger fueling it: people in the Sunset felt Engardio pushed Prop K without enough community input and it was very personal for that neighborhood. Whether they can generate that same energy for a signature drive on a measure that most SF voters already weighed in on (and supported) is the open question. But the organizational infrastructure from the recall campaign is already in place, which is why most observers seem to think they'll get there.

Didn't the deadline on this pass already

@RuthGraceWong there's a nov ballot!
