    Yeah, Philip Dreyfuss, a coal hedge fund bro from Piedmont, bank rolled a lot of the recall efforts.

    That said, all the of campaign messaging and mailers were about crime. That’s the thread he pulled on to get people to vote for her recall. Dreyfuss’ ground campaign wasn’t about coal at all, he tried to bury that because Oakland hates that shit.

      I still wonder how many of her recall votes were people being confused and not realizing she isn’t the DA.

        I wish I still has my sample ballot, but I’m pretty sure that the ballot said “mayor” on the recall measure.
