FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
- Who can sign the petition?
Anyone who is 18 or older and is CURRENTLY registered to vote in San Francisco. (If you're not registered to vote in San Francisco, you can register to vote and then sign the petition.) - Where should I send my petition?
Please send it to our lawyers at:
BoE Recall Petition
150 Post Street, Suite 405
San Francisco, CA 94108 - Is my signature private?
Petition signatures are private just like election ballots are. We are not allowed to disclose who signed.
- I don't have a printer and I want to sign
If you're in Lower Haight at any point, you can text us at 650-447-7377 and stop by our home to pick up a petition.
Or check the map to find farmers' markets and drive-thrus where you can sign.
- Why do I need to sign the same petition three times?
They're actually slightly different -- each petition is for a different Commissioner. If you look at the second paragraph (first line), you'll see the Commissioner's name. - Can green card holders sign?
If you're at least 18 years old and registered to vote, you can sign. We're double-checking whether that means green card holders can sign.
- How soon do you need them back? I still have blank signature lines on my petition. Should I wait to send it in?
August 31 at the very latest -- but please send them to us as soon as you can, so we don't get flooded with signatures to validate at the last minute.
- Wait, I have to write dates three times on the declaration?
Yes. - What's with the blank pages?
If the petitions have anything printed on the back, then they're invalid. The blank pages are there to make sure that the backs of the petitions are blank even if you print double-sided. - Do I have to be a San Francisco voter to get signatures?
No; you just have to be 18 years old or older. - Can minors help?
You must be 18 or older to circulate the petition or to sign it. In other words... don't touch the petitions until they are signed, top and bottom.
But we would LOVE your help with:
* validating signatures (we really need help with this!)
* spreading the word on social media or in person
