Opinion: Voters should pick the next sheriff

The process of removing Corpus for hiring her alleged boyfriend and harassing her employees has been chaotic enough. While an overwhelming number of residents voted to support a ballot measure that gives the supervisors the power to fire Corpus, there has been discontent about the process the supervisors are using to remove her. Many think that a recall measure would have been a more transparent process, allowing the sheriff to make her case to the public, not the Board of Supervisors.

Corpus will get 14 day reprieve if board fires her

San Mateo County Sheriff Christina Corpus will remain sheriff for two weeks even if the Board of Supervisors votes to remove her. Corpus and her lawyers asked Superior Court Judge Nira Shapirshteyn to halt the supervisors from removing her for alleged corruption. Shapirshteyn ruled today that since the board has not had its final vote, she can't issue a halt to Corpus' removal at this point.

Some modest suggestions for Mayor Lurie to appoint for D4 supe - 48 hills

I hear Jimmy Kimmel needs a job. He may not currently live in District Four and I'm not sure how soon he can move here. He may have to commute for the first few weeks, until he finds suitable and affordable housing. But the mayor could conditionally offer the position to the just-banned talk show host, if Kimmel promises to fly into the city at least once a week for a Board of Supervisors meetings.
