Early results are showing that Eugene City Councilor Claire Syrett is losing in the recall vote, 2016-1351, though ballots are still being counted. About 25% of voters seem to have cast ballots.
Syrett still has an ongoing lawsuit to stop the upcoming recall election, claiming that signature gatherers lied about the basis of the recall. The recall effort is over her support for a traffic and public transit plan and the claim is that the vote was about further study. She is seeking $2500 in damages from the plaintiffs.
Update: The final vote was 2329-1599 (59-41%).
