Overview
- Hurabiell filed paperwork and announced her bid on X roughly 97 days before California’s June primary.
- She casts herself as a pragmatic, common‑sense Democrat focused on safety, innovation and affordability.
- Hurabiell served on the Presidio Trust board after a 2018 appointment by President Donald Trump and changed her party registration from Republican to Democrat in 2022.
- Opponents seized on her record, with Scott Wiener’s campaign labeling her a MAGA Republican and coverage resurfacing her posts opposing recognition of trans women as women and her past comment about critical race theory, for which she later apologized.
- The crowded Democratic field already includes state Sen. Scott Wiener, Supervisor Connie Chan and Saikat Chakrabarti, with the seat open following Nancy Pelosi’s retirement.
