Election Day to Save Our City for Labor

by SOS
TODAY IS ELECTION DAY! If you want a home tomorrow, you must VOTE TODAY to save our city for the workingclass. That means you are voting Yes on A,B,F, H, I,K and No on C,D,E,G,J. Proposition F will stop the hotelization of all rental housing in San Francisco. THIS IS A GENERAL ALARM. The polls open at 7 a.m. and close at 8 p.m. Your polling place is on the cover of your voter handbook and at http://www.sfelections.org/tools/pollsite/. If you still cannot find it, go to City Hall, basement on Van Ness side and vote at the Registrar's office. If there is a problem with your ballot, demand a provisional ballot. If you have completed but not mailed your absentee ballot, DELIVER it to a polling place or the Registrar's office TODAY. The mayor's race is usually a low voter turnout property owners' election. WE NEED EVERY TENANT VOTER TO VOTE IN THIS ELECTION TO SAVE OUR HOMES.

The San Francisco Elections Department provides a lot of information online at http://www.sfgov2.org/index.aspx?page=599 To see who is funding each campaign and how much is being spent, go to http://www.sfethics.org/ethics/2015/08/campaign-finance-dashboards-november-3-2015-election.html. The current reports are to October 17, 2015; the final reports should be online by November 25, 2015.

Some comments on the propositions. The housing crisis epitomizes the bankruptcy of capitalism that puts profits before people. It should be illegal to maximize profits with housing; all housing should be non-profit and no speculation should be allowed. This is only possible in a socialist society, which we can only obtain when labor has the strength to carry out a general strike to put an end to capitalism. Some 75% of San Francisco residents now cannot afford to buy or rent housing at current market rates. Since all rich people have at least 1 home, and often more, there is NO NEED FOR ANY LUXURY HOUSING WHATSOEVER.

For more information on the propositions, see:
