A recall effort against Contra Costa District Attorney Diana Becton is underway, driven by frustration among victims and residents regarding unresolved crime issues. Although recall proponents secured 103 signatures to initiate the process, they still need to gather 72,000 valid signatures within 160 days to qualify for an election. Critics express disappointment over Becton's handling of crime, notably a lack of charges in high-profile cases, sparking this movement. Becton's previous elections may bolster her defense against the recall, potentially complicating the group's efforts.
We, the victims of crime, their families, local business owners and employees, as well as residents of Contra Costa County, have reached our limit and are initiating the recall of District Attorney Diana Becton.
The recall has not qualified for the ballot. Now the recallers begin the real work of gathering 72,000 signatures within 160 days.
