With the election fast approaching, Airbnb investor Reid Hoffman is continuing his disingenuous campaign against David Campos as a favor to a pro-Airbnb politician.

When San Francisco began considering legalizing Airbnb, the flourishing startup was quick to ingrain itself in the political process. Airbnb's lobbyists secretly helped author favorable legislation, then created an astroturfing organization to strike down the sections they didn't like. And now that the legislation has passed, Airbnb's investors are rewarding their City Hall stooge with a smear campaign against his electoral opponent.
