The #ballotmeasure, when appropriate, would dispatch #EMS and #mentalhealth workers to help someone in a mental health or addiction crisis, instead of the police.
But first, we have to collect 25,000 valid #signatures to get it on the ballot.
Over 85% of approx 108,000 #SanMateo voters approve the removal of ethically challenged sheriff Christina Corpus by a four fifths vote of county supervisors. Support for the unique #BallotMeasure garnered 90,900 votes for her removal, more than she won her office with. 17,318 county residents voted against removing the embattled #LawEnforcement official who has so far lost support of seven cities in the county, two sheriff’s unions,state and federal congressional leaders that have all called for Corpus to resign.
“While the initiative was in many ways unprecedented, it is our firm belief that, in this case, decisive action was necessary,” local #PoliceUnions said in a joint statement. “Today’s certified vote means that Sheriff Corpus’s reign of unscrupulous mismanagement will soon come to an end.”
Corpus says she has no plans to resign and her legal team is ready to fight the matter out in the courts saying she is "entitled to a public evidentiary hearing before a neutral and unbiased body. My legal team and I look forward to this opportunity, and are confident that I will be vindicated through a legitimate process.”

Good News from the #Election no one's talking about: #Maine #Question1, which limits campaign contributions by #billionaires, passes with NEARLY THREE QUARTERS OF THE VOTE.
This shows MASSIVE, #bipartisan, money-overcoming support for a #BallotMeasure to remove money from politics, paving a clear path for similar ballot measures in other states in 2022.

#Fascist #DeSantis #administration warns local #TV #stations to #remove #ads about #abortion #ballotmeasure.
The Republican administration is pressuring Florida stations to take down an #ad that promotes a “#yes” #vote on #Amendment4, which would #enshrine #abortionrights in the #state #constitution.
This is insane. #DeSantis is threatening a TV station for airing an ad in support of a lawful #ballotMeasure to enshrine the right to #abortion in #Florida's state #constitution. This is absolutely crazy.
