California: Petitions taken out against Antioch Mayor; City Clerk may face effort as well

Petitions have been taken out against Antioch Mayor Lamar Thorpe. Petitioners need 9511 signatures by May 11. There is also a recall effort against City Clerk Ellie Householder, who rejected petitions against Thorpe submitted on September 24.  The issue seems to be the resignation of the Police Chief and the retirement of the City Manager.
