Proposition D “revises the City Charter Relating to the Strong Mayor Form of Governance.” Prop D consists of three distinct questions bundled in an all-or-nothing package. Voters are not permitted to pick and choose but must support or reject the entire proposal. The three questions are: 1) Shall the Charter be revised to make permanent the Strong Mayor form of governance? 2) Shall the Charter be revised to add a ninth Council seat? and 3) Shall the Charter be revised to increase the Council votes required to override a mayoral veto to a two-thirds vote?
