"Teresa Alvarado announced her separation from the Bay Area's $40 billion investor-owned power utility on LinkedIn last month. For the past four years, Alvarado has served as a local face for the controversial company as one of five regional vice presidents. Alvarado's region stretched from the mountain, coastal and farming communities of Santa Clara County to Santa Barbara. Her post left unclear the nature of her leaving, and she did not respond to requests for comment."
"But more recently, Alvarado faced scrutiny for helping run this year's District 3 special election campaign for Gabby Chavez-Lopez, executive director of the Latina Coalition of Silicon Valley, which Alvarado founded, while a special interest group with PG&E funding spent independently to support Chavez-Lopez's candidacy. Alvarado and Chavez-Lopez both denied the campaign involvement after San José Spotlight first reported on emails showing Alvarado running campaign meetings with volunteers to discuss fundraising, endorsements, mail and media strategy."
