On February 15, San Francisco voters will participate in a special election to replace David Chiu in the California Assembly for District 17.
As the 25th empress of the Imperial Court System of San Francisco, and a former small business owner of Marlena's bar in Hayes Valley, I will be supporting Thea Selby because, not only is she the only woman in the race, she is a strong, proven progressive leader and citywide vote-getter who is accountable, pragmatic, and committed to being a progressive ally.
Selby has long been intimately involved with the struggle for anti-discrimination and has a demonstrated track record to back it up.
