Oakland City Councilwoman Libby Schaaf won a decisive victory in Oakland’s mayoral race Tuesday, defeating 14 other candidates. Schaaf is an Oakland native, currently serving her first term on the City Council. She was an aide to former mayor Jerry Brown, who gave her campaign a considerable bump when he endorsed her for the office. We’ll talk with Libby Schaaf about the opportunities and challenges in Oakland, and her priorities as mayor.
