Idaho: Lacelede Water District Director drops appeal of recall

Laclede Water District director Harvey Hallenbeck, who was trounced in an august 26 recall 114-10, has dropped his attempted appeal over the claim that the petitioners did not get enough signatures. The issue was the number of signatures needed for the ballot, Bonner County Clerk claimed that petitioners only needed signatures from 20% of the electorate, as there was no election being held within the last six years. Hallenbeck claimed that the key year was 2010, which would have required 50% signatures in the district,
