2024 Alameda County District Attorney recall election

The Alameda County Board of Supervisors confirmed that the petition met valid signature requirements. The board voted to consolidate the recall election with the general elections in November 2024, given it would be cheaper than a special election. It was estimated a special election would cost 15 to 20 million dollars, compared to adding the recall question to general ballots being about 4 million.^[6]

If the recall question passed by a majority vote, Price would lose office and her principal deputy would act temporarily. The Alameda County Board of Supervisors would appoint an interim replacement until the voters choose a new permanent successor in 2026.

U.S. Representative Eric Swalwell, Price's direct predecessor Nancy O'Malley, all 14 county police unions, the San Francisco Chronicle, and the East Bay Times supported the recall,^{[7][8][9][10][11]} while U.S. Representative Barbara Lee and state senator Nancy Skinner opposed it.^[12]

Price would lose by a nearly 63–37 margin, formally conceding on November 19.^[13][14] Price's defeat would follow a trend of citizens rejecting "progressive prosectors" that had been elected in years prior. Simultaneously, Los Angeles County DA George Gascón lost re-election to the more conservative attorney Nathan Hochman.^[15] Price would be recalled only two years after Chesa Boudin had been recalled in neighboring San Francisco. Additionally, Alameda County also voted by 23 points in favor of Proposition 36, which repealed the 2014 California proposition that reduced many felonies such as shoplifting to misdemeanors.^[13]
