Measure Fails to Pass After Strong Final Surge for No Vote

It’s official – Prop. H has lost in a photo finish! Though the final results were close, our side carried election-day voters by a margin over 11%. This shows that the more people learned about Prop. H, the less they liked it.

Thanks to everyone who got involved to help educate voters of San Francisco about the dangers of this measure. Had it passed, the misguided and poorly worded initiative would have meant the city of San Francisco was officially on record standing against parent choice and diversity in our schools.

Special thanks to UESF Political Director Ken Tray for his good work lining up our city’s elected leaders, including Mayor Ed Lee, against the measure; and for his work debating the measure’s sponsors across town, leading to the vast majority of voter groups and Democratic Clubs coming out against Prop. H.
