    A survey of 233 Asian voters in San Francisco's District 4 found that 66% found ranked choice voting to be helpful while 23% found it confusing. The majority (82%) of Asian voters selected 3 different candidates instead of just 1. In the District 4 supervisor race, Asian voters favored Ed Jew at 44% while spreading their second choices among the other top candidates. Negative campaigning by some candidates drove their supporters to list Ed Jew as their second choice at high rates, suggesting Jew could win the District 4 race with high Asian voter turnout.
