As always, I’ve limited my analysis to color coding the propositions — blue for “liberal” and red for “conservative.”

Alix Rosenthal breaks down the November ballot and explains, in great detail, why you should vote for John Avalos, Sharmin Bock, Ross Mirkarimi, YES on A, B, C, E and G, and NO on D, F and H.

It’s confusing… what do you do when there isn’t a polarizing character in the San Francisco Mayor’s race? Incumbent Mayor Ed Lee is widely considered to be the front-runner. He’s a competent manager with a disarming mustache and many years of experience in city government. He has also brought openness and a sense of humor to the office. However, he has a serious problem keeping his promises, some of his supporters have been accused of election fraud, and most agree that he takes direction from Willie Brown and Chinatown powerbroker Rose Pak. But he’s no wine mogul who sleeps with his employees, marries B-list actresses and hates the little people. Ahem. That said, there are several better candidates for Mayor in this race, so why settle for Mr. Not-a-Douche?

Heather Knight writes for the Chronicle (“Which endorsements mean the most in the S.F. mayor’s race?”):

So combining all the responses we got from consultants, the Top Five would probably be Pelosi (no endorsement news yet), the local Democrats (picked Avalos first, Herrera second), the Sierra Club (State Sen. Leland Yee first, Avalos second), the Labor Council (Herrera and Yee) and the firefighters (Mayor Ed Lee first, a whopping four candidates tied for second: Herrera, Yee, Alioto-Pier and former Supervisor Bevan Dufty).

Adding up all the big endorsements so far — especially when individual unions are taken into account — Yee and Herrera are winning the endorsement game. Lee seems to be coming up a bit short for a sitting mayor.

Here’s the response:
