“It’s a lot easier to learn to count to five,” Brown told Johnson. Changing the charter would be too difficult, he said. Surprisingly, Brown told Johnson not to mess with strong mayor. And he knew Sacramento from his legislative career. Brown had experience as a strong mayor in San Francisco. One day, we brought Willie Brown to meet Johnson. His staff reviewed California law and precedent, researched similar-sized cities, interviewed likeminded mayors, and produced hundreds of pages to validate how Sacramento was ready to join the roster of strong mayor cities.

Her denial included a significant loophole. Mary Lynne Vellinga, the mayor’s spokesperson, denied Steinberg was ready to push a strong mayor ballot measure. Mayor Darrell Steinberg has conducted polling on whether Sacramento voters are willing to give him powers denied to Johnson.
