A new grassroots coalition has formed in response to what it calls a major conservative threat to voters’ rights in Oakland and Alameda County, bluntly calling itself: “Respect Our Vote – No Recalls.” “We already voted! We shouldn’t have to pay for another expensive election because a handful of multi-millionaires from Piedmont and San Francisco, along with a few billionaires across the country, don’t like the results of the election we already had,” said longtime Oakland activist Mariano Contreras, reflecting a sentiment of some politically aware residents from many groups and neighborhoods across Oakland.
