North Dakota: Oberon councilman facing recall over requests that voters "vote for him"

This one is amazing -- Oberon City Councilman Paul Stensland is facing a January 27th recall over claims that he violated state law by asking voters to vote for him (North Dakota does not require a showing of cause, so this may not have been in the official filing). Unfortunately, there is only one story about this, so I can't do to much verifying. But certainly one to monitor.

Petitioners only needed 17 signatures (the town has about 100 people).
