"While the election is nearly 14 months away, Manny's owner Manny Yekiutiel announced he's running for Supervisor Rafael Mandelman's current seat as District 8 supervisor, though he's already got opponents lining up against him. Not that anyone's paying attention yet, but we will remind you that in 2026, SF Supervisors Matt Dorsey, Stephen Sherrill, and whoever they name to replace Joel Engardio will be up for reelection."
"The Chronicle confirmed Yekutiel was running the same day, though also noted that Gary McCoy, a former aide to the then-Supervisor Scott Wiener, then-Supervisor London Breed, and Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi was also considering running. The Chron also added that former Harvey Milk LGBTQ Democratic Club president and City College board member (and also former Mandelman aide!) Tom Temprano is contemplating a run for the seat too."
Manny Yekutiel, owner of Manny's on Valencia Street, announced a run for San Francisco District 8 Supervisor and received an endorsement from incumbent Rafael Mandelman. Potential challengers include Gary McCoy and Tom Temprano, creating an early competitive field. Yekutiel is campaigning on activating storefronts, clean streets, and housing. He has political experience from work on Obama 2012 and Hillary Clinton 2016 campaigns and a brief tenure on the SFMTA board. Several other San Francisco supervisor seats will be contested or open in 2026, including termed-out seats held by Shamann Walton and Rafael Mandelman.
