Glendon Hyde (who performs under the drag name Anna Conda and won the Miss ->-bleeped-<-shack competition in 2004) filed paperwork today to become a candidate for SF Supervisor in District 6 in 2010 -- the seat currently filled by Chris Daly who will be termed out as of next year. Hyde joins a race against possible candidates Jane Kim, Debra Walker, Jim Meko, and, potentially, Human Rights Commissioner Theresa Sparks.

Hyde has long been a passionate advocate for the homeless and for LGBT causes, and throughout the Prop 8 fight and aftermath, he has been marching and organizing marches (in and out of drag) in support of marriage equality.
