I spoke with Quentin Kopp this morning and he acknowledges his September column was not accurate when he wrote that District 1 supervisorial candidate Marjan Philhour endorses Proposition K and is in favor of closing the Upper Great Highway to private vehicles. Philhour recently voted against passing Prop. K at a meeting of the SF Democratic County Central Committee (DCCC).

In his column, because of his opposition to Prop. K, he endorsed Supervisor Connie Chan for reelection and encouraged voters not to vote for Philhour. Since learning of his error, he has changed his recommendation to encourage voters to vote for Philhour, and suggests listing Chan as their second choice.

Kopp regrets the mistake.
