San Francisco Mayor London Breed conceded the mayoral race to Daniel Lurie Thursday afternoon.
She thanked the San Francisco residents for “the opportunity to serve the City that raised me.”
London Breed became the first Black woman to serve as mayor of San Francisco after the death of Mayor Ed Lee in late 2017.
Daniel Lurie, the Levi Strauss heir, sank more than $8.6 million of his own cash into this race and another $8 million in outside spending.
“During my final two months as your mayor, I will continue to lead this City as I have from Day One – as San Francisco’s biggest champion,” said Breed in closing her concession speech.
