Party-Crashing with Mayor Gavin Newsom's Cousin
Published by Harmon on March 10th, 2009

I'm not the most extreme political person. In fact, this is the first San Francisco mayoral election that really caught my interest. "What will become of our beloved city?" I thought to myself. Depending on the outcome, would it be a nonstop Burning Man free-for-all, or an orderly, grown-up cocktail party where manners and proper dress are emphasized?
That's what inspired me to go out election night. Yes, to prepare myself for the San Francisco that might be, I decided to become a mayoral-campaign chameleon. At hourly intervals, I popped back and forth between the candidates' election-night parties dressed to fit in at each locale, posing as a rabid supporter in order to get a glimpse of Our City's Future.
