Price makes history as the first Black woman elected to the position.
"Alameda County residents have spoken through the ballot box," said Rocky Hunt, participatory defense coordinator of Communities United for Restorative Youth Justice and a member of the District Attorney Accountability Table, a coalition of local community-based organizations committed to ending mass incarceration, eliminating racism from the criminal legal system, and police accountability.
"They are tired of business as usual and don't want to continue seeing the same harmful, failed approaches that have destroyed so many Black and Brown lives. We congratulate Price on her victory and look forward to meeting with her soon to support a just transition with systems-impacted community members at the table."
