From the scene at Rassela’s on Fillmore you might assume that the whole world, or at least the whole city, is celebrating tonight.
The party is ostensibly for the re-election of Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi in District 5 but I could not find him amid the loud, crowded rooms. Supervisor Mirkarimi’s victory was never really debated, and either way, a certain president-elect from Illinois stole the show.
It is truly a historic night here in San Francisco. Happy citizens of all races, creeds, and income brackets have come together…to dance. As I write this, a distinguished looking, white haired businessman is getting down on the dance floor with a woman who appears to be homeless.
It is truly a day of unity for the city. Party hard san Francisco, for tomorrow we go to work.
