I don't see how to elect someone who doesn't have the same incentive with regard to the police. The fact that the disincentive to take on the police is such a fundamental part of how the job works is precisely why I don't think the problem can be solved by just electing a different DA; the system itself needs to be changed, and that requires a lot of coordination across multiple fronts. Voting for different people is necessary for that sort of change but not nearly sufficient, which is why I think that saying it's purely the fault of voters for electing the wrong people is a gross oversimplification.
