Alameda County, California, has appointed Superior Court Judge Ursula Jones Dickson as its new District Attorney, succeeding the recalled Pamela Price. The appointment was made by the Board of Supervisors after a four-hour meeting and three rounds of voting. Dickson, who previously worked as a deputy district attorney, is expected to take office by February 4. She will serve until the next election in 2026, after which the winner will complete the remainder of Price's term, extended to 2028 due to state law changes. Dickson pledged to promote impartiality and rebuild trust within the office and community.
