Idaho: Plummer Mayor survives recall vote due to "Queen of the Hill" provision

Plummer Mayor Bill Weems survived a recall vote 71-66 against him, but recall supporters needed the total vote to top the amount he received in his initial election (78 votes) -- I'm now calling this a "Queen of the Hill" provision.

The recall seems to be about his behavior in off, and this state investigation may have something to do with it, though the articles aren't clear about the precipitating factors.
