Get the League of Women Voters' nonpartisan ballot recommendations for San Francisco and California propositions — and share them with friends!
Be a voter with our ballot recommendations, also known as election endorsements. We're nonpartisan, so you won't find candidates in this voter guide, just propositions. Keep in mind that "proposition" and "ballot measure" are used interchangeably in San Francisco to refer to a proposal submitted to the voters for approval or disapproval.
We'll share our November 5, 2024 endorsements in early October, in time for your ballot to arrive so you can vote with the League. Subscribe to our emails to get notified when our recommendations are available.
For each election, LWVSF reviews the local ballot measures, also called propositions. Unlike some other groups, we don't hold meetings for proponents and opponents to present their views. Instead, we make ballot recommendations, also known as election endorsements, based on the League’s positions and principles.
We're nonpartisan, which means we do not support or oppose any political parties or candidates. Our nonpartisan stance adds strength to our positions on issues and makes possible the wide interest in our election endorsements on ballot measures.
Our nonpartisan analysis of ballot measures begins with the dedicated volunteers on our Advocacy Committee, who gather information, do outreach, and conduct research. They write recommendations for whether LWVSF should support or oppose each measure. Sometimes we have competing positions and are 'neutral' on a measure. If we have no relevant positions, we take 'no position.' In a few situations, such as recalls and declarations of policy, we have 'no recommendation.' Finally, our board of directors votes on whether to accept or not accept the recommendations, and we publish our election endorsements.
Our positions are what drive our ballot recommendations. We've developed these positions over the years using grassroots member study and consensus by the national, state, Bay Area, and San Francisco levels of the League. We have positions on issues as varied as the environment, transportation, housing, and governance.
