This just in. The campaign headquarters for the David Chiu for mayor campaign was ransacked by thieves last eve.<\/p>\n

In addition to thousands of dollars worth of equipment stolen from the office located at 1800 Van Ness Ave, the thieves rifled through confidential campaign materials.<\/p>\n

\u201cLate Sunday night, the David Chiu for Mayor campaign headquarters at Van Ness and Clay was vandalized and burglarized,” said David Chiu campaign manager Nicole Derse. ” Thousands of dollars of equipment were stolen, and the intruders rooted through confidential campaign materials \u2013 removing them from drawers and leaving them scattered on the floor.”<\/p>\n

“If this was a politically motivated attempt to distract the Chiu for Mayor campaign on the eve of Election Day, it has failed miserably,” Derse added.\u00a0 “David and our team of volunteers are as determined as ever to get our message out to San Franciscans in these last hours before voters go to the polls.\u00a0 This matter has been referred to the SFPD for a full investigation, and we are confident that they will get to the bottom of it.\u00a0 In the meantime, we will get back to work.”<\/p>\n

Police are currently onsite and dusting for prints, the campaign said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
