ABOUT MARK
Mayor Mark Farrell served as the 44th Mayor of San Francisco. Previously, Mark served as District 2 Supervisor for seven years, and was the longest serving Budget Chair in the City’s history. Mark is San Francisco native, lifelong Democrat, and lives in the Jordan Park neighborhood with his wife and three children.

Mark is running for Mayor to bring to life his vision for San Francisco, where we are:
Where public safety is the government’s #1 priority.
A City that believes sidewalks are for everyone and not tent encampments, drug dealers, and drug abuse
A City that is thriving economically where businesses large and small across every industry are successful, offers jobs that support a diverse workforce, and a City Hall that works collaboratively with our business community to make it happen
A City where families are the priority, and City Hall’s actions and policies are not driven by special interest groups, but a desire for the next generations of San Francisco to succeed
A City that is vibrant: where neighborhoods are alive, tourists are excited to be in town, and a downtown that is buzzing with activity every day
