 Opposition to McGoldrick heats up - Examiner.com
An effort to recall Supervisor Jake McGoldrick is moving forward, with proponents confident they have the support to place the initiative for his removal on the November ballot.
The group took out an advertisement on Tuesday in a local newspaper announcing its intention to recall McGoldrick and has raised $40,000, according to Paul Kozakiewicz, who is the publisher of a newspaper that covers the district and the media liaison for the recall effort.
Heller, who was one of six people to run against McGoldrick for the District 1 seat in 2004, said that McGoldrick is not listening to his district residents, pointing to the fact that they had decisively opposed a Saturday road closure in Golden Gate Park at the polls seven years ago.

The night before San Francisco Supervisor Jake McGoldrick broke with his progressive colleagues and provided the swing vote for a controversial condominium project in the Mission District, he attended a fundraiser sponsored by the lobbying firm the developer had hired to push the project through the Board of Supervisors, The Chronicle has learned.
McGoldrick called it character assassination to suggest that his decision was influenced by the fundraising help he received from the developer's lobbyist.
"Jake McGoldrick is a profoundly moral individual and has consistently cast his votes from a principled position and not been influenced in any way by the politics of money," Board of Supervisors President Aaron Peskin said, adding he himself has received fundraising help from the same lobbyists yet voted against the project.

 Recall of Supervisor Jake McGoldrick fails - invalid signatures
The backers of the recall submitted 3,844 signatures to the elections department - about 300 more than were required - but a random sample of the signatures used to test their validity showed that not enough were legitimate, according to John Arntz, the city's elections director.
The recall group argued that McGoldrick was out of touch with residents of his district and, as an example, pointed to his support of a six-month trial closure of some roads in Golden Gate Park on Saturdays.
McGoldrick has noted that he had been open about his stances on these issues before he was re-elected and pointed out that recall, even if successful, would have shaved just a few months from his term, which ends in December 2008.

Supervisors Chris Daly and Jake McGoldrick, often at loggerheads in public, are trying through quieter means to sort out their latest legislative conflicts: competing visions for tree protection and a proposal by McGoldrick to expand parking enforcement downtown, a move that Daly says took his district by surprise.
McGoldrick postponed the hearing, and this week he said he's cut back the plan by 20 percent after meeting with residents of Daly's South of Market district.
McGoldrick at that time agreed to grant relief to drivers facing higher parking fees instead of easing Muni fare hikes, as Daly wanted to do.
