The ordinance calls for a March special election to amend the charter, allowing supervisors to remove a sheriff for misconduct or corruption

The San Mateo County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday unanimously moved closer to asking voters to give them the power to remove Sheriff Christina Corpus from office following a scathing independent report about her tenure.

The calls are growing louder for Corpus to resign, with U.S. Reps. Kevin Mullin and Anna Eshoo, State Sen. Josh Becker, and Assemblymembers Marc Berman and Diane Papan added to the chorus saying her continued tenure impacts public safety.
