OP-ED: Dan Dow gets an extra 2 years in office
OP-ED ~ California's Governor Gavin Newsom signed Assembly Bill 759 last fall, which extends the terms of elected sheriffs and district attorneys by two years, thereby delaying elections for two years until 2028 for San Luis Obispo County District Attorney Dan Dow and Sheriff Ian Parkinson.
The law aims to increase voter participation in countywide elections and was co-authored by Assemblymember Kevin McCarty. Many California sheriffs are unhappy with the law, as it could lead to progressive sheriffs and DAs being elected due to higher Democratic turnout in presidential elections.
