I am very upset that she got away with co-chairing the Run, Ed, Run campaign supporting Ed Lee who is basically an extension of the former Willie Brown administration,\u201d Johnson added.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/wordpress\/3591\/olague-kicks-off-campaign-for-supervisor\/\">Olague<\/a> was appointed by Mayor Ed Lee to the D5 seat in January following her co-chairship of the controversial Run, Ed, Run campaign and the vacancy created by former District 5 Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi\u2019s election to Sheriff.\u00a0 Her voting record includes opposition to a Board-approved (6-5) redevelopment of Parkmerced, as well as support for a Board-approved (8-3) 134-unit luxury condo development at 8 Washington on the Embarcadero.<\/p>\n<p>If elected, Johnson said she would donate as much as 30 percent of her supervisor\u2019s annual salary ($105,000) to schools; sponsor legislation to provide low-cost loans to small businesses; address traffic calming along the busy Oak and Fell thoroughfares via the installation of bicycle lanes; and work towards improving Muni bus performance through the District.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven if I don\u2019t get elected, I would like to see the Board of Supervisors work with the MTA (San Francisco Municipal Transportation Authority) to have common sense rules about bus spacing and timing,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Considered the most politically progressive of the City\u2019s 11 districts, District 5 comprises the Haight-Ashbury, Western Addition, Hayes Valley, Inner Sunset, Japan Town and Lower Pacific Heights.<\/p>\n<p>Johnson joins an increasingly crowded field of candidates for the open seat that includes political heavyweights College Board Trustee John Rizzo, former Redevelopment Agency Commissioner London Breed, community activist <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/wordpress\/4571\/overheard-in-fog-city-julian-davis-to-declare-d5-candidacy\/\">Julian Davis<\/a> and former legislative aide to Assemblymember Tom Ammiano, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/wordpress\/4631\/independence-equitable-growth-central-planks-to-mecke-campaign-for-d5-supe\/\">Quintin Mecke<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Asked why District 5 residents should vote for her, Johnson said, \u201cI think District 5 residents would find that I am extremely independent and familiar with what goes on at City Hall.\u00a0 I\u2019m not interested in the next political position.\u00a0 I\u2019m doing this because I think this is our last chance to prevent San Francisco from becoming a have, versus have not, tale of two cities.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If elected, Johnson said she would donate as much as 30 percent of her supervisor\u2019s annual salary ($105,000) to schools;
