SAN FRANCISCO—On the first working day after the New Year, Ellen Lee Zhou formally filed her application to join the approaching mayoral race. As a Republican candidate, she vowed to end the city’s mono-party control of the government.
“The current mayor is not a people’s mayor. We need a people’s mayor like me,” said Zhou to the office clerk and the press around her as she filed her paperwork for the mayoral race in the election office.
