WHAT VOTERS NEED TO KNOW
Updated April 28, 2026
Before voting begins ahead of the California Primary on June 2, voters in Congressional District 11 need to see and hear that Scott Wiener is the candidate with the strongest record of taking on Trump and big corporations to deliver real results for San Franciscans.
Senator Scott Wiener is relentless. He never stops working for San Francisco and has the courage and track record to stand up to both Trump and large corporations. He has authored and passed more than 100 bills into law, including landmark legislation on housing, healthcare, transit, LGBTQ+ rights, and civil liberties.
Scott capped insulin costs at $35 per month and forced insurance companies to cover mental health coverage. In Congress, he’ll pass Universal Healthcare and Medicare for all. Scott led the movement to make it easier and faster to build homes in California. In Congress, he’ll lead the movement to lower rents and restore the dream of home ownership through his plan to build 8 million homes across California. Scott banned ICE agents from wearing face masks and will never stop fighting the wannabe dictator in the White House at every turn.
In Washington, Scott will bring his same relentless approach: build coalitions, make hard votes, and deliver results.
Scott Wiener is endorsed by a broad coalition, including the California Democratic Party, The Sierra Club, Nor Cal Carpenters Union, and the National Union of Healthcare Workers.
Voter contact in Wiener's base precincts. Direct mail and digital to confirmed supporters in Districts 2, 3, 5, 6 and 8 drives turnout. These voters already know Scott, but they may need a reason to return their ballot.
Chinese-language outreach. Voters need to read and see Wiener's record on transit and, healthcare.
Saikat Chakrabarti, who made hundreds of millions of dollars in tech, has spent nearly $5 million to buy this seat and has a spotty record of even voting in San Francisco over the last decade. According to the Department of Elections voter file, Chakrabarti voted in San Francisco in 2010, then did not vote again until 2020.
Chakrabarti's self-funding, primarily out-of-state donor base, and lack of local political ties are all well-documented in public filings. His wealth comes from big tech, private equity, and his time working at a hedge fund. These are legitimate contrasts that resonate with Democratic primary voters who prize genuine community ties.
How can San Francisco voters trust Saikat Chakrabarti?
- Chakrabarti has made it appear to voters that AOC has endorsed him, but she has refused to do so.
- Chakrabarti deleted his social media history when he announced his run for Congress in 2025. What is he hiding?
- Chakrabarti’s voting history, property ownership, and campaign finance filings raise serious questions about where he actually resides.
- Purchased a home in Gaithersburg, Maryland in 2018 while working in Washington.
- County tax documents list the Maryland home as his principal residence.
- Claimed a resident tax credit for that home while voting in San Francisco elections. He received tax breaks in Maryland in 2020, 2021, and 2022 at his principal residence, while simultaneously voting in San Francisco those three years.
- Donation filings list addresses in Washington DC, New York City, and Covina (Los Angeles County) in recent years, during the time he claimed to live in San Francisco.
