(KRON) — The effort to recall Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price obtained enough valid signatures to remain to a recall election, the Alameda County Registrar of Voters (ROV) claimed Monday.
An overall of 123,374 signatures got on the application, the ROV claimed. Of those, 74,757 were figured out to be valid, which went beyond the essential number for the effort to proceed (73,195), the ROV claimed.
The signatures were counted by hand by the ROV.

The recall effort is being placed on by Save Alameda For Everyone (SAFE), a team of homeowners and local business owner in the region. The team has charged Price of not holding wrongdoers answerable.
“We are confident that this grassroots movement will pave the way for positive change and a brighter future for all residents and businesses in Alameda County,” claimed Carl Chan, the major police officer of SAFE.
Price has declared trademark scams in the recall activity. Specifically, she claimed trademark applications were left ignored on tables and some trademark collectors were from outside the region or state. The ROV claimed Monday that 48,617 signatures were “disqualified.”
In 2022, San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin was ousted from workplace in a recall election. Similarly to Price, Boudin was slammed for being soft on criminal offense.
The following action for the recall effort is for the application to be checked out by the Alameda County Board of Supervisors. The board of managers’ following conference is set up for April 30.
