Christina Corpus, the sheriff of San Mateo County, faces severe criticism over misconduct, including dishonesty and creating a hostile work environment. Critics argue that her removal should occur through established democratic processes rather than a potentially overreaching measure, Measure A, which would permit the Board of Supervisors to fire her on vaguely defined grounds. This approach raises concerns about fair representation and due process. Opponents suggest pursuing a recall election or encouraging an investigation by the Civil Grand Jury, echoing strategies used successfully in other jurisdictions to remove elected officials.
Many voters will likely see Measure A not as a path to accountability but as a dangerous precedent allowing politicians to interfere in elections directly.
