      Newsom was sworn in by his father and pledged to bring his business experience to the board.[23] Brown called Newsom “part of the future generation of leaders of this great city”.[23] Newsom described himself as a “social liberal and a fiscal watchdog”.[23][24] He was elected to a full four-year term to the board in 1998. San Francisco voters chose to abandon at-large elections to the board for the previous district system in 1999. Newsom was reelected in 2000 and 2002 to represent the second district, which includes Pacific Heights, the Marina, Cow Hollow, Sea Cliff and Laurel Heights, which had San Francisco’s highest income level and highest Republican registration.[25] Newsom paid $500 to the San Francisco Republican Party to appear on the party’s endorsement slate in 2000 while running for Supervisor.[26] He was reelected.[27]

            I asked you to prove this:

            He only ran as a dem because he is in California and Republicans have no chance there

            -and you cannot. Therefore what is happening is you are positioning an opinion as fact. This means it can easily be dismissed as irrelevant to the topic.

              No why continue when you obviously don’t care about anything other than trying to cancel out any valid criticisms.

              and you cannot. Therefore what is happening is you are positioning an opinion as fact. This means it can easily be dismissed as irrelevant to the topic.

              Yes it’s easily dismissed by you saying continue I don’t accept reality

                You lied. Just have an ounce of shame and admit it. And for the record, I’m not asking you to continue. By all means. Stop. Disinformation isn’t something I believe needs to be allowed a platform, though I do believe it is everyone’s duty to call it out when it happens.
