Nov 6 SF Election Day for Mayor Dr. Sumchai & Yes on B,E, K
We need your vote in San Francisco's mayor's race on November 6, 2007 and IT DOES MATTER THAT YOU VOTE. We can get enough votes to make the illegal, anti-rent control, pro-Navy's Blue Death Nazi Newsom receive less than 50% in his phony "victory." The polls are open 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Deliver your absentee ballots to any polling place on Nov. 6 or vote at the polls, but PLEASE VOTE.

Ignore all predictions and previous polls; the only poll that counts is the election and the larger the workingclass vote, the more ridiculous the predictions.
If you are a member of the 70-80% of the US population that is workingclass, you have the right to vote becaues people paid with their blood, sweat and tears so that you could vote. In addition, if you are African-American or female of any color, even more people paid with their lives so that you could vote. In these fascist times, we must exercise our right to vote if we are to have any right to vote, and we have good people and propositions to vote for on the San Francisco ballot. THE ONLY REASON THERE IS A PREDICTION OF LOW VOTER TURNOUT IS BECAUSE THE WORKINGCLASS DOES NOT VOTE REGULARLY. THE PROPERTY OWNERS ALWAYS VOTE AND ARE MOSTLY REACTIONARY; THE WORKINGCLASS TENANTS MUST VOTE IF ONLY TO DEFEND RENT CONTROL, AND MUCH MORE.
MAYOR: Dr. Ahimsa Porter Sumchai

Democratic City Attorney Dennis Herrera tried to deny the right to vote to 33,000 San Franciscans who signed a ballot proposition to stop the poisoning and gentrification of Bayview-Hunters Point by declaring that it was illegal, although there was nothing illegal about it. However, all is not lost because an African-American female medical doctor, Dr. Ahimsa Porter Sumchai of Bayview Hunters Point is running for mayor on the same platform that was expressed on that petition and more.

OTHER PEOPLE: You can skip the district attorney and sheriff races are they are anti-workingclass by definition and the people running are definitely reactionary. The moniker for the district attorney is "sending poor people to jail" and that should suffice. DA Kamala Harris is busy wasting our tax dollars on prosecuting anti-homeless "quality of life crimes" so please just skip these 2 positions. Harris’ despicable prosecution of the poor is more fully described in the Bay Guardian, 10/3/07, “The Crime of Being Homeless” by Amanda Witherell at:

Jack Hirschman wrote a beautiful poetic endorsement of Dr. Ahimsa Sumchai found on her website:
MAYOR AHIMSA
By San Francisco Poet Laureate Jack Hirschman
(Reprinted with permission and thanks).
Because memory serves an African American
the story of such monstrous injustices,
such lashes and blowtorches and ropes,
such cruelty and hatred and blight of body and soul,
and because an African American woman
has been the vessel most scuttled yet most enduring,
most swarmed and throttled yet ever emerging
as the open fist of the living community,
and because I remember the fighting words
of struggle and compassion that young poet Ahimsa
sounded in the days that are no different than today
with respect to the plight of the poor, the fight
against displacement at the hands of those
landlawless bootlickers of corporate greed,
happily I cast my vote for Ahimsa Sumchai
for Mayor of San Francisco
whose race is the one of Reason
whose color is all the People of this town.
