CA: Napa Co. welcomes 1st-ever all-women board of supervisors after primary election
NAPA COUNTY, Calif. (KGO) -- History was made in the North Bay.
Napa County has elected its first-ever all-woman board of supervisors.
The final results for this month's primary were posted. Amber Manfree, Liz Alessio and incumbent Belia Ramos were elected to the board.
"We're all coming in as very qualified, very hard-working candidates," said Amber Manfree, Napa County supervisor-elect.
"It says a lot about Napa County and how progressive we are here. Really it's about representation, and I hope it sets an example for the rest of the state," said Joelle Gallagher, chairperson of the Napa County Board of Supervisors.
