Jones Dickson declares victory in Alameda County district attorney election

Ursula Jones Dickson reacted to her victory in the Alameda County district attorney election Monday after the county’s latest results update that day showed the incumbent with an insurmountable lead.

As of 4:50 p.m. Monday, current DA Jones Dickson holds a 64.67% (221,000 votes) advantage above her two challengers, recalled former DA Pamela Price and trial attorney Gopal Krishan, according to the Alameda County Registrar of Voters’ Office. These latest numbers reflect the nearly 395,000 ballots that the county has processed so far.

And with just over 20,000 ballots left to be processed, Jones Dickson said the numbers clearly show county residents “have overwhelmingly elected me to continue serving as Alameda County District Attorney for the next two years”.

“With this victory, we’ve avoided a November runoff election, and that means I’ll be able to devote the entirety of my time toward securing justice for victims and survivors, closing the case backlog, developing stronger partnerships across the county, and continuing the work necessary to make the DA’s office ever more responsive to our public safety challenges,” Jones Dickson said in a statement on Facebook on Monday evening.
