Former Silicon Valley Democratic donor Allison Huynh declared “the voters made their decision” to vote out progressive politics in California.
Huynh, who had previously raised millions of dollars for the Democratic Party, has come out against her former party for failing big cities, particularly San Francisco.
“Well, I think liberals have just been too leftist, and they’re just out of touch with reality. And I’ve talked about that before, and it sounds really nice and fine and really warm and fuzzy. The socialist dogma in San Francisco is we help everyone… And the reality is that when you help everyone, you help no one. And so, the liberal elites are out of touch with reality and living in a bubble with their rich Democratic donors,” Huynh told Fox News Digital.
“But the truth of the matter is that there are limited resources, and we cannot help everyone,” she continued. “We need to put Americans first. We need to put the citizen, taxpaying, legal citizens in San Francisco first. Just like on a plane in an emergency. The pilot says you need to put the oxygen mask on yourself first. Americans first before helping anyone else. And Democrats just don’t understand us.”

HOW A POLITICAL EARTHQUAKE ROCKED CALIFORNIA AND MADE CRIME ‘FINALLY ILLEGAL AGAIN’
As a result, she remarked how California made significant red shifts in the 2024 election, including Proposition 36, which repealed Proposition 47 that lessened penalties for drug and theft crimes.
“I think the voters made their decision. And the truth is that we all know that crime is a big problem. Illegal immigration is a big problem. And it all feeds into the addiction and homeless problem,” Huynh said.
More notably, progressive San Francisco Mayor London Breed was defeated by first-time candidate and Levi Strauss heir Daniel Lurie after he campaigned as a tough-on-crime alternative. Lurie, Huynh commented, is the latest in a long line of California voters rejecting progressive politicians.

“It’s a very low bar. Consider the politicians such as Kamala Harris, Chesa Boudin, London Breed, also the Oakland politicians Pamela Price and Mayor Sheng Thao, how they forget the citizens of the San Francisco Bay Area. They’re very out of touch with the realities. And we need to focus on cleaning up the streets, making the streets safer. So I think people just wanted change with Daniel Lurie. And he has the name and he was seen, you know, kind of talking and walking the streets. And so that’s a good sign,” Huynh said.
She added how most of California outside the major cities actually vote red and voted more in favor of President-elect Donald Trump in this cycle.

“At the end of the day, we have to vote for our families. There’s high crime, there’s high taxes, high immigration issues, a cost of living, high homeless rates,” Huynh told Fox News Digital.
In June, she told “Fox & Friends First” that she was switching her vote to Trump out of her disappointment with the party. She even traveled to Mar-a-Lago to fundraise for his campaign.

“San Francisco has been the science experiment that’s gone awry,” she said. “I wake up in the morning, there’s no grocery stores to go to, there’s no malls to take my teenage girls shopping to. The streets are not safe, there are more fentanyl users and dealers than high school students in our once great city.”
