New Mexico: Petitions filed against three Los Alamos Council members, with a fourth on the way

Petitioners were filed against County Councilors Susan O'Leary, Antonio Maggiore and Rick Reiss, and will soon be filed against Councilor Christine Chandler. These four petitions joining an effort to recall County Council Chair David Izraelevitz (which was dismissed by a judge). All of the recalls were filed by Greg White, who is running for County Sheriff, claiming 31 counts of wrongdoing -- New Mexico is a malfeasance standard/judicial recall state so the petitioner would need to meet a legal standard to get the recall on the ballot.

White claims a number of actions including that they are usurping the power of the executive power of the sheriff and that they are advocating the overthrow of the the State of New Mexico.
