According to NBC Bay Area's results early Wednesday:
Prop A, charter changes affecting various city departments and commissions: Yes 70.64% (122,226)
Prop D, changes to the ballot measure process: Yes 57.75% (101,064)
Prop E, city administrator's authority and city contracting: Yes 66.88% (115,890)
Prop F, changes to executive branch management: Yes 62.86% (109,328)
ABC7 reported matching figures, including Prop E at 67% yes with 115,890 votes, and labeled Prop F the "Mayor's Power" measure.
Results are preliminary; San Francisco's next scheduled update was Wednesday afternoon.
All results are unofficial election-night and early-morning counts as of Wednesday, Nov. 4. Counties keep counting mail and provisional ballots for days, and certification comes later, so margins can shift, especially in close contests.

San Francisco voters approved Proposition H, a parcel tax that will fund Muni operations for 15 years and stave off threatened cuts to bus lines and cable cars.
The agent connects to Gmail, Google Drive, Calendar and Slack. Uber did not say how much the rollout costs, and says it will track how employees use it.
Railway says the attack looks like part of a wider campaign aimed at AI inference providers. It paused deployments while investigating and plans a post-mortem.
