Striking a defiant tone, Pamela Price offered an emphatic defense of her first 16 months in office while pillorying “a handful of super-rich investigators and tech executives” bankrolli…
Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price went on the offensive Wednesday, vowing to prevail against a well-heeled recall attempt that will be decided on a packed November presidential election ballot.
Backed by more than a dozen supporters holding signs proclaiming “Protect the Win,” Price framed the recall campaign as a bid to “overturn” the results of the 2022 election, during which she became the first Black woman to serve as Alameda County’s top prosecutor. “The reason they’re supporting this recall campaign is because they can see the overall damage to the community that she’s doing, in terms of lost business, small businesses, lost lives,” Moore said.
His dismissal came in sharp contrast to voters’ preferences in that very same election across the Bay Bridge, where Alameda County voters placed Price first among four candidates for the East Bay job. She won the job outright four months later, defeating a longtime prosecutor. “We need a rule of law,” tweeted Swalwell, a former Dublin City Council member and Alameda County prosecutor.
The Save Alameda For Everyone recall campaign has brought in nearly $569,000 in contributions during the first three months of 2024, according to campaign finance forms filed May 1. That’s in addition to the roughly $1.1 million that it raised in 2023.
