Date for special election to recall Supervisor Joel Engardio announced

SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) — Organizers of a recall effort against San Francisco Supervisor Joel Engardio have obtained the required signatures to get the recall on the ballot. On Thursday, the Department of Elections for the City and County of San Francisco announced the petition to recall the under-fire supervisor had been certified.

The petition, according to officials, was submitted on May 22 and determined to have 10,523 valid signatures. The required threshold was 9,911.

With the petition deemed sufficient by the department, a special election is now set to take place on Sept. 16, 2025, in accordance with SF Charter Section 14.103.

District 4 Supervisor Engardio has become a target of public ire following the permanent closure of a section of San Francisco’s Great Highway to traffic. That section is now a beachfront park that was named “Sunset Dunes” following a monthslong naming contest.
