Florida: Deltona City Commissioner facing recall effort

Deltona City Commissioner Loren King is facing a recall effort over his former membership in the Oath Keepers, one of the groups who led the failed January 6 insurrection at the Capitol. King has said that he hasn't been a member since 2017. Petitioners need at least 1034 signatures in 30 days to get on the ballot for the first stage and then 1551 more signatures in 60 days. There may also be a malfeasance standard in play (though the article lists one for the whole state, which may not be accurate), which means that the recall has to hit a statutorily delineated list of reasons to allow the recall to go forward.
