As the sun set on the final night before Election Day, Jane Lew and several other canvassers were still going strong on the corner of Market and Castro, using every last second to talk to as many voters as possible.
“We’ve been at all the farmer’s markets around the city, just talking to a lot of San Franciscans and encouraging them to vote Yes on K,” said Lew.
Jane is the field organizer for the Yes On K campaign, supporters of Proposition K which looks to close down the Upper Great Highway to cars and turn it into a park.
Prop K is expected to be a close call. Jane said they’ve been campaigning around the city for months.
Now, with Election Day on the horizon, she just hopes they’ve done enough.
“A little bit of relief that it’s going to be over soon and then also a little bit of fear. Did we do enough? Did we talk to enough people? Did we get our message out,” said Lew.
That nervousness is why Jane thought it was important to keep campaigning up until the last second.
