Louisiana: Signatures handed in for second attempt against Elton Mayor

Petitioners have handed in 252 signatures for the recall of Elton Mayor Elton Mayor Kesia Skinner-Lemoine, though one of the signers has since died. Petitioners need 245 valids. The issue is a claim of election irregularities and fraud.

This recall effort is following the failure of the first attempt at recalling , which collapsed in spectacular fashion, with only one of the 322 signatures handed in approved. For some reason, the stories listed 276 signatures required at that time.

Petitioners needed 276 (40%). petitioners are giving it another chance and have taken out petitions.
