San Francisco Board of Supervisors, District 2

This person holds your district's seat on San Francisco's 11-member Board of Supervisors. They vote on city-county laws, the budget, and land use.

Incumbent Stephen Sherrill and three challengers are on the ranked-choice ballot. The district covers the Marina, Pacific Heights, Cow Hollow and Presidio Heights. Sherrill was appointed in December 2024. He won June's special election with 69.25% in the final round. November decides the full four-year term. The challengers are community advocate Monthanus Ratanapakdee, Republican Party chairman Nicholas Berg, and Guy McCoy.

The winner holds one of 11 seats on the Board of Supervisors, the city-county's legislature. It writes ordinances, approves the budget the mayor proposes, and decides the land-use questions that determine what gets built where. The term is four years, with a two-term limit.

June measured Sherrill against a well-funded challenge and he won decisively; that opponent is not in this field. November asks a different question: none of the three challengers has held city office, and two report no campaign committee at all (per the Ethics Commission's November index). The ranked-choice ballot lets you rank all four.
