Maine: Paris' Oxford Hills School Board Members kicked out in recall vote

Paris' Oxford Hills School Board members Sarah Otterson and Julia Lester lost recall votes 333-243, though Lester already resigned from the position. 

The recall was over their support for a proposal to promote a "safe learning environment of students of all gender and sexual identities." Recall proponents arguing that the proposal would "allow teachers to withhold important information from parents."

700 signatures were turned in, though the recall seems to have a significant issue in that it is not clear that the town has the ability to initiate the recall because the school district serves multiple communities. No word on how that works out or whether the person who replaced Lester would be removed by recall (presumably not, though I'm not sure why it went forward at that point.

Update: Christie Wessels was appointed as the replacement for Otterson.
