Ohio: Tallmadage charter vote looks to limit recall petitioners to city residents

City Charter amendment in Tallmadage will limit petitioners to city residents or, if it is a district-based recall, just residents from that district.

* ISSUE 58. Shall Section 17.02 of the Charter be amended to provide that each individual circulating a recall petition shall be an elector of the City or the single ward, as appropriate?

This amendment requires the circulator of a recall petition to be an elector of the city or a single ward. The change basically prevents someone outside the city from circulating a petition.
