After Supervisor Alan Wong united District 4 behind his candidacy in June after several waves of tumultuous politics erupting from San Francisco’s Sunset neighborhood, many are viewing today’s’ three-way supervisorial race between Wong and two of his opponents from June as a fait accompli.

In today’s race, Wong runs against Jeremy Greco, a former worker-owner at Other Avenues Food Co-op and Albert Chow, who owns Great Wall Hardware. In June, Wong won 46% against four other candidates, and 64% in the final round of ranked-choice voting against Natalie Gee, an aide to District 10 Supervisor Shamann Walton.

Gee opted not to run again in November, as did David Lee, a former San Francisco Recreation and Parks commissioner, who also ran an Assembly race in 2024.

Wong, a former member of the City College board, was appointed by S.F. Mayor Daniel Lurie in December 2025, following the recall of Joel Engardio and his appointment of Isabella “Beya” Alcaraz, who resigned after allegations of tax fraud and that she had mismanaged a local pet store.

Wong said in a phone interview that he is “still doing everything” to mount a winning campaign.

“We’re organizing weekend events as well, and do lit drops and visibility,” Wong said. “It’s my personal goal to knock on every single door in the Sunset neighborhood, regardless of the strength of my competition, and I’m continuing to do that.”

Wong said on Oct. 19 that he had “finished knocking on 34 of the 48 precincts in the Sunset District so far, and want to go to every single one.

“I think that knocking on doors and talking to my constituents helps me to be a better representative for my district, because I’m hearing directly from my residents. It allows me to get feedback for legislation,” Wong said.

Greco opted to run again, and he said he still sees a pathway to victory. One key theme of his candidacy is as a full-throated defender of Sunset Dunes, the controversial park atop the former Upper Great Highway that’s being voted on again citywide this year as Proposition G.

“I always think there’s a path to win,” Greco said. “With my ‘No on G’ stance and my alliance with progressives, I think I have an interesting pathway that could work. Also, since I ran the first time and I’m running again, I think that helped me out. Natalie’s Gee endorsement has helped me out a lot, and (former D-4 Supervisor) Gordon Mar’s as well. Both Mar and Natalie have been very supportive, so I’m not in la-la land, and I think there’s a path.”

Greco said he has been handing out flyers, including at the No Kings event at Ocean Beach in October. He has also been going door-to-door, concentrating on the precincts Gee did well.

Chow, Greco said, is “not actively campaigning.” Chow confirmed that news, saying in a phone interview, when asked how much he has been campaigning, that he has been doing “very minimal to be honest with you.

“I haven’t done too much campaigning at all, and at this point, it’s too late to start,” Chow said, adding that Wong hasn’t “made any significant fouls” so far, but disagreeing he’s been out-and-about in District 4.

“(Wong) has not been coming out to the neighborhood very much,” Chow said, adding that he wants the supervisor to focus on amending Lurie’s Family Zoning Legislation, which he voted for the day after being appointed.

“I’d like to see Alan come out and represent us more,” Chow said. “I haven’t seen him engage in a meaningful way.”

Chow said he decided to stop campaigning because, seeing that Wong was probably going to win, “I felt I couldn’t come up to someone like you and ask for $150, $200, if I didn’t have a chance of winning.”

Wong was propelled to victory in June by a warchest of more than $1 million in outside PAC spending from Lurie allies.

Wong said through his conversations with voters he is zeroing in priorities if reelected, including getting more trash cans, working on protected left-turn signals, better tree and sidewalk maintenance and fighting for neighborhood schools.

“I’m not moving things based on a preordained ideological agenda, but on what my constituents tell me are their day-to-day needs,” Wong said. “I’m here to bring common sense leadership to City Hall, but for so long, people have felt City Hall was focused on things that are pie-in-the-sky ideological ideas.”

Whether District 4 voters trust Wong to represent their interests at City Hall for a four-year term is what they’ll be deciding on Nov. 3.
