#Progressive #DistrictAttorney #PamelaPrice in #Alameda #California, is under attack from the #farright.

#misogynoirism #farrightsmears

Same nonsense as the far right's campaign against progressive #DA #ChesaBoudin in #SanFrancisco and far right campaigns against left and progressive school board members of colour

It was easy to predict that the attacks against #PamelaPrice would start coming almost immediately after she took office at #AlamedaCounty #DistrictAttorney. (And that corporate media would revel in amplifying it.) #NancyOMalley's "throw the book at everyone" tactics didn't end or even reduce murder in the county.

"What is it exactly you're getting when you elect officials that advocate on behalf of wanton criminals and people that murder children and women?" Klaas asked.

Another of #NancyOMalley's final acts as #AlamedaCounty #DistrictAttorney was to let more cops off of the hook. Her report was completed Dec 5, but O'Malley didn't bother to release it before leaving office, instead #PamelaPrice did yesterday.

Real class act, that #NancyOMalley

In her final days in office, #AlamedaCounty #DistrictAttorney Nancy O’Malley tried to persuade county supervisors to transfer $20 million from the DA office’s budget to her own projects. She didn't even bother to mention it to incoming DA #PamelaPrice.

In the east bay, we're seeing a distinct win for progressive candidates. Where conservatives or center-right candidates managed to win (such as school board races) it was always against center-left or absolute centrist candidates. I think the combination of a lack of a red wave + midterm apathy from centrists meant this was a time for progressive candidates to shine. #PamelaPrice #AishaWahab #LizOetega #GeorgeSyrop
