Recall election set: Voters to decide on Nov. 5 whether to oust Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price from office

Alameda County voters will decide in November whether to recall District Attorney Pamela Price, after the county’s supervisors opted against spending up to $20 million this summer on special election with little — if any — precedent in the county’s history.

Rather than rush the question before voters, the county’s Board of Supervisors on Tuesday opted to place the recall question on the Nov. 5 ballot alongside an expected rematch between the nation’s last two presidents as well as a wealth of state and local races.
