The recall effort against Elton Mayor Kesia Skinner-Lemoine has move forward, with the governor now in position to schedule the election. Petitioners handed in 252 signatures and got 249 valids. They needed 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.
Update: Recall set for April -- Judge has once again rejected the attempt to toss out the election.
