The mayoral debate in San Francisco, California, took a bizarre turn after Democrat Mayor London Breed asked her challenger to name three LGBTQ advisers to his campaign as well as three drag queens in the city or prove his loyalty to the cause.
“I’d like to ask Mark a question. You were at the Harvey Milk LGBT Democratic Club and couldn’t name any LGBT advisers to your campaign. You were at the debate last week and couldn’t name any drag queens on your own,” Breed said. “We’re not going to revise the drag queen question from last week. But what I will say is I’m incredibly proud of support that I have former LGBTQ+ community here in the San Francisco,” he said, before noting that he has two members of his staff who are members of the “queer community.” However, he said he would not dignify the question by naming exactly who they are.
“I will stand by my record of that, and I look forward to the continued support from our queer community throughout the city of San Francisco,” he added.
