San Francisco Examiner: Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi remained the clear front-runner Wednesday evening in the race to be the next San Francisco sheriff, although his two main contenders remained mathematically alive, with some votes left uncounted. According to updated figures from the Department of Elections, Mirkarimi was capturing 52.77 percent of the final, securing his likely victory over his main challengers Paul Miyamoto and Chris Cunnie. With about 32,000 write-in and provisional ballots still left to be tallied, one of these challengers would need to win the lion’s share of the uncounted votes to leapfrog Mirkarimi >>>

by Red Wine on Thu Nov 10, 2011 01:23 PM PSTمبارکشان باشد.شغلِ کلانتری بسیار سخت میباشد و مخصوصاً در
شهری مثلِ سان فرانسیسکو (یادش به خیر که چند سالِ بعد از فرار از ایران
را در این شهر گذراندیم و درسِ ابتدائیِ دانشگاه را نیز در آنجا تمام
کردیم) .
اخبارِ بد از همه جا رسد و امشب مطلع شدیم که باندِ بزرگِ Miami Iranies به دام
افتاد (قسمتی از اینها در اسپانیا ) و اینان بسیار خطرناک بودهاند در
امورِ مواد مخدر،اسلحه و برده کشی از زنانِ جوان و ...
As an Iranian, from now on, I will expect Iranian style "party

Best wishes to the New Sheriff in town.
