From the article:  "He doesn’t blame San Francisco voters for approving the $15 minimum wage, but he doesn’t think they had all the information needed to make a good decision." 

He's being too kind - yes they are partially to blame for enabling their lawmakers to buy voters.  The media is also to blame for being agenda pushers instead of informers.
