I think the prevailing notion is another, namely that an electrically charged black hole would quickly neutralise by preferentially attracting particles of opposite charge.



In particular, if a charged black hole creates Hawking pairs, the oppositely-charged particle is more likely to be captured than the same-charge particle.


Once Hawking radiation is produced at all, those are the same process.
