Dustin DorseyLeaders across San Mateo County are urging residents to vote"yes" on Measure A , which would allow for the removal of Sheriff Christina Corpus.After months of calls for embattled San Mateo County Sheriff Christina Corpus to step down, voters now have the opportunity to take matters into their own hands.
They say "cause" would include neglect of duties, misappropriation of public funds and obstruction of misconduct investigations. Corpus filed an injunction to stop the special election, saying Measure A is not about public safety, but rather a politically motivated attack. She has also filed a $10 million claim against the county, alleging unfair treatment because she's a Latinx woman.But Storch says calls for her removal have nothing to do with race or gender, but her actions.
The City of San Mateo may soon join San Carlos and Millbrae with a vote of no confidence in Corpus and other San Mateo County city leaders say their next vote, will be a "yes" on A.
