Supervisor Bevan Dufty didn’t like the results of a poll by The Bay Citizen that didn’t show him among the top tier of candidates in next week’s mayoral election, and in a Q&A in the San Francisco Sentinel, he’s directing some of his ire at the source.
Add: Referring to the non-profit news website as “an insert newspaper for the New York Times,” he says “I definitely feel The Bay Citizen has marginalized me….” Of the poll, he adds:
An initiative like that is about marginalizing me. It’s about telling people that I can’t win. That’s not the feel I have. I hear a lot of rumblings that there are other polls out which show me moving. I’m out in the community and across the City. I find that people are very motivated to want to support me.
