San Francisco residents look towards future after firing Dem mayor in effort to clean up homelessness, drugs
Residents in California are looking to turn over a new leaf with the election of San Francisco Mayor-elect Daniel Lurie, who defeated incumbent Mayor London Breed.
Lurie, a first-time candidate, Levi Strauss heir and founder of an anti-poverty nonprofit, positioned himself as the tough-on-crime alternative to Breed’s lax policies on crime, drug use and homelessness that plague the city.
Lurie bested Breed, the city’s first Black woman mayor, by a more than 10-point margin, 56% to 43%.
During his first speech as mayor-elect, Lurie committed to “clean and safe streets for all, tackling our drug and behavioral drug crisis, shaking up the corrupt and ineffective bureaucracy, building enough housing, so our neighbors can afford to live here, supporting our small businesses and breathing life back into downtown.”

Steve Hilton, a Fox News contributor who also worked for British Prime Minister David Cameron, told Fox News Digital that the change came after San Francisco reached new lows in recent years.
“This great, iconic city has just been collapsing into crime and chaos and squalor and decay because of far-left policies, because the Democrats have been in charge forever,” Hilton said. “You’ve seen open-aired drug markets, you’ve seen homeless encampments everywhere and crime is rampant.”
“And finally, people have had enough, we want change” he said. “So they kicked out Mayor London Breed and elected Daniel Lurie. He’s a Democrat, but a reasonable one. He wants to clean up this city.
“People want change in California – you’ve seen that across the board.”

Other residents in California’s once crown-jewel city told Fox News Digital that they hope Lurie’s election would bring about change.
Chris Cheng, a 17-year San Francisco resident and a professional sports shooter, said that he’s excited for Lurie’s policies to be implemented.
“I’m very excited about the election results here for mayor. I used to support London Breed, but the past few years have been very tough in the city,” he said. “The past few months have gotten better, but it’s just been too little, too late.”

“I voted for Daniel Lurie, and I believe he’s our best choice for mayor to turn around the dire situation in certain parts of San Francisco,” Cheng added. “My neighborhood has its fair share of homelessness and drug addicts – and I live in a nice neighborhood that typically does not have that.
“It goes to show that the character of certain San Francisco neighborhoods that were traditionally safe for kids has changed. We really need someone like Daniel Lurie to come in and enforce the law, clean up our streets and make them safe again. Let’s turn the corner in San Francisco.”

Lee Neves, a California Democratic Political Consultant, told Fox News Digital that he hopes the party moderates in the wake of the city’s mayoral results.
“I think voters in San Francisco and across the Bay Area definitely sent a message on Tuesday. They are tired of the status quo. They are tired of the hug-a-criminal policies and making excuses for homelessness,” he said. “They want results, they want the homeless off their streets and out of their parks.”
“They want their streets and their parks back, and to be able to go shopping without being worried about being robbed,” Neves added. “Voters are fed up with it. The Democratic Party needs to get a wake-up call to moderate our policies.
“We need to come to the center where people are so people can feel safe in their community.”

(KRON)– San Mateo County Supervisor David Canepa is asking the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to step up protections at ports and Airports across the country, including San Francisco International Airport (SFO), after the recent hantavirus outbreak.
The outbreak began aboard a cruise ship in May 2026.
The ship outbreak has reached 12 cases, nine of which have been confirmed. So far, three people have died.
In California, five people, including one Santa Clara County resident, are being monitored for possible exposure. Another Bay Area resident is being monitored separately in Nebraska.
In the U.S., the CDC is monitoring 41 people for Hantavirus. That includes an additional 16 who were not aboard the cruise ship where the outbreak began, but were exposed on an April flight from Johannesburg with a woman who was infected on the ship and later died.
Canepa is fighting for concrete policies that would protect Californians, specifically calling out the CDC to create a clear process when outbreaks, similar to the recent hantavirus outbreak, begin.
Along with the CDC, the World Health Organization is emphasizing that the overall risk to the public remains low. So far, there’s been no evidence of ongoing transmission.
