So fascinating to me. On a national level when people are unhappy, they usually vote for the other party. But in these big urban areas Republicans aren't an option, so instead the shift goes further to the left.
As progressive as San Francisco is, we haven't elected a progressive Mayor in decades. In our election last year we elected, by SF standards, a real moderate and he's done a lot to turn the City around.
I try to think what differentiates cities like Seattle and NYC who will elect a socialist, and SF who won't.
