San Mateo County voters will vote on March 4, 2025 on an amendment to the county charter to allow the Board of Supervisors to remove the sitting sheriff for cause. This measure will resolve YES if the amendment passes (by majority vote). If the amendment fails, the measure will resolve NO. If the election does not occur on March 4 or is otherwise invalidated, the measure will resolve NO.
The San Mateo County Board of Supervisors voted on Tuesday to hold a special election on March 4, 2025, amid a longstanding feud with Sheriff Christina Corpus.
The special election, which reportedly will cost millions of taxpayer dollars, will allow voters to decide on an amendment to the county charter that, if approved, would grant the board the power to remove a sitting sheriff "for cause, including for violation of law related to a Sheriff's duties, flagrant or repeated neglect of duties, misappropriation of public funds, willful falsification of documents, or obstructing an investigation." The measure was sponsored by Supervisors Noelia Corzo and Ray Mueller.
