Arizona: Four Glendale councilmembers facing petitions over Phoenix Coyote vote

Recall petitions have been taken out against four council members, Ian Hugh, Lauren Tolmachoff, Bart Turner and Jaime Aldama, over their vote to terminate the lease of the Phoenix Coyotes. A real estate agent is leading the charge. The city may be holding a recall in November regardless against Councilman Gary Sherwood (over a separate issue).

Petitioners would need between 750 and 2200 signatures. The signatures needed for Mayor Jerry Weiers, 14,500, prevented petitions being taken out against him.
