    The Races Have Settled

    We are still processing the election, as I am sure all of you are. But at least some questions have been answered. We’ll go through those updates.  And, where does the city of San Diego go from here? The mayor and Council President got re-elected but a sales tax failed and a deficit looms.

    Uh Oh! More DeMaio

    It’s the last lap of this election season and we have updates on several major races in San Diego.  Is Mayor Todd Gloria overstating his creation of homeless shelter beds? Yes. Did Terra Lawson Remer use campaign funds for her kid’s preschool? Yes. She has a good defense but it’s interesting.  And in South Bay, the chair of the County board of Supervisors has created several enemies.  Finally, remember that fake charity that had fake volunteers selling concessions at Petco Park? Well two of its workers are now running a new charity. The thing is, we cannot figure out what the charity does. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    It's Silly Season

    Coming up on the show this week…  We’ve got more mailers here to dissect. We’ll cut through what campaigns want voters to know and what we don’t even understand like: Why are California realtors bullying a candidate for her poker playing skills? There’s a newspaper endorsement that’s not really a newspaper endorsement … It is silly season in San Diego.  To wrap it up, We’ll talk about a key school board race and the latest in the biggest race of them all – the District 3 County Supervisor contest.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Mailers Gone Wild

    Coming up on the show this week…  The race between Supervisor Terra Lawson-Remer and former mayor Kevin Faulconer is easily the hottest race this year. Millions are being spent on behalf of the candidate. The mailers are getting wild. We’ll get into it.  Speaking of mailers, we’ve got some good ones.  Plus, the latest in the city attorneys race and can a new million dollar infusion help a cop beat the incumbent mayor in the mayor’s race?

    ICYMI Politifest 2024 Roundup

    We got through Politifest. We’re going to discuss some of the many things people said and didn’t say. It was a big day for us.  Also, why does Brian Maienschein, who is running for city attorney, have a campaign finance account for an attorney general race in 2030. We posted an explainer we can give you the cliff’s notes on.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Don't Get Politifest FOMO

    A million dollars has already gone into the big county supervisors race from outside groups – most of it in support of mayor Kevin Faulconer, and if you’re in the district, you can tell from your mailbox. Usually mail waits until ballots are out.  That’ll be our introduction into Politifest Week. We’ve been trying to run the show like normal while preparing for our big annual gathering. We’re going to go through some of the sessions we’re most excited to see.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
