Campaigns are learning to message the bots
California Playbook’s ballot roundup lists San Francisco Prop B, a charter amendment for a first-in-the-nation public bank, and notes Mayor Daniel Lurie’s opposition.

POLITICO’s California Playbook listed San Francisco Proposition B in its weekly ballot roundup: a charter amendment to allow what supporters call the nation’s first public bank, with opposition from Mayor Daniel Lurie.
The item is short. The rest of the newsletter is about how campaigns write for chatbots. The local facts have not changed. Prop B still creates a framework, not the money, and the mayor has said the City should spend on housing and small businesses instead of a new institution.
National political coverage is starting to name the measure. The voter question is still whether to write an unfunded bank into the Charter.
