Low voter turnout in San Francisco today for the primary elections. Only 12% of young people (age 18- 35) returned their ballot, making us the least likely to vote of any age group 🥲

As the Hindu festival of Navratri begins, Jill and I send our best wishes to all those celebrating in the U.S. and around the world. May good once again triumph over evil — and usher in new beginnings and opportunity for all.

An unspeakable loss for our nation. Rest in peace Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a true pioneer of equality and justice 🙏 Her tireless work forever altered the course of women's rights in the United States. Someday there will be nine.
