Incumbent state Sen. Scott Wiener is currently leading the polls with 70% of the vote against Republican challenger Yvette Corkrean's 29%, indicating strong support in California Senate District 11.
Wiener is recognized for his housing initiatives designed to streamline affordable housing production, addressing critical housing shortages in his district encompassing all of San Francisco.
Wiener's authored the Frontier Artificial Intelligence Models Act (SB 1047), which aimed to regulate AI, though it faced a veto from Gov. Gavin Newsom after passing both state houses.
Corkrean has publicly criticized progressive politics in San Francisco, contrasting sharply with Wiener's campaign focused on expanding healthcare access, particularly in mental health and addiction treatment.
