Progressive California County District Attorney Faces Recall Vote in November

While a special election could have been held as early as mid-August, the registrar of voters did not recommend the option due to high costs.

The Alameda County Board of Supervisors recently voted to include the recall of District Attorney Pamela Price on the county’s ballot in the upcoming general election in November.

During a special meeting May 14, the supervisors voted unanimously to set Nov. 5 as the recall election date. The decision comes after the county registrar of voters confirmed last month that enough valid signatures to place the issue on the ballot had qualified.
