Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao faces a likely recall with 65% of voters supporting it while District Attorney Pamela Price also anticipates recall due to public discontent.
Despite low overall crime statistics, Mayor Thao has struggled with community dissatisfaction and an FBI investigation, creating challenges to her tenure as mayor.
The recall of District Attorney Pamela Price highlights a public backlash over progressive criminal justice policies, particularly in response to her management of serious criminal cases.
Following the expected recall of both officials, Oakland City Council President Nikki Fortunato Bas is poised to take over until a special election can be conducted.
