Alameda County’s district attorney and sheriff will both face challengers in the 2022 election.
Pamela Price, a civil rights attorney who ran unsuccessfully against incumbent District Attorney Nancy O’Malley in 2018, said today that she plans to run again. And 25-year veteran San Francisco Police Officer JoAnn Walker will run against incumbent Sheriff Gregory Ahern.
Price and Walker, both Black women, said in press releases today that their campaigns will mount progressive challenges to Alameda County’s two top law enforcement officials. Black women have never held the role of district attorney or sheriff in Alameda County’s 168-year history. Every sheriff has been a white man, and O’Malley, appointed in 2009 and re-elected three times, was the first woman to ever hold the office of district attorney in the county.
