Billy Bob, Chicken John, and Grasshopper Heat Up San Francisco's Mayoral Race


Only in San Francisco would citizens be given the option of voting for mayoral candidates with such diverse backgrounds--a solid record in office or similar leadership qualifications are not required. Presumably, candidates can prove they live in San Francisco County.

Maybe someone qualifies as a great dreamer--if not for mayor:

retired teacher and blogger
nudist activist
former supervisor
juvenile probation department manager
flower shop owner
taxi driver named Grasshopper
nonprofit program director
music teacher
sex club owner
showman named Chicken John
educator named Billy Bob
blogger who spent 7 months in jail (journalist right to protect sources)
incumbent mayor
