It is a very disingenuous turnaround, as the current mayor and city council members are part of the problem. Lets see if they actually make it happened. Word on the street is that this came from Pelosi, as they saw poll numbers and San Francisco is making the whole Democratic party look awful. There was a turnaround even from the Pilly ultra progressive DA as well, who just two weeks ago was denying that there was a crime problem, meanwhile murders reached all time high. So this turnaround is a coordinated thing, which means it is coming from the DNC.
This turnaround is because the political class/establishment got scared from both the Virginia (and somewhat New Jersey race), and in Seatle where people elected a republican DA.

The 'progressives' and their insane left wing policies, are causing a major regress of quality of life of everyone in the city, and the rest of the country is paying attention. This is the rest of the political establishment trying to save their skin, and jumping from the sinking ship and trying to reverse course.
Also, both CA (LA and SA), and Seattle and Chicago are what happens when a region becomes a one party state. There is no more competition and the establishment gets entrenched to the point that it hard to dislodge, and they can enact all kind of crazy policies, that don't benefit their constituents.
The same thing, but opposite ideology (right wing), is in Hungary, Poland, and Turkey. (Orban and Erdogan are the opposite side of the same coin. Super entrenched majority, that is hard to kick out, and steer the place into regress, corruption or mismanagement).
Moral of the story: Don't vote blindly for one party. If the current elected leaders are not making your life better, vote them out.
