Oregon: Morrow County Commissioners recall makes the ballot

The recall against three Morrow County Commissioners, Commissioners David Sykes, Jeff Wenholz and Roy Drago Jr., has made the ballot and is scheduled as a special election in July.  

The recall was over a seeming kitchen sink grouping of issues, including changes to the ambulance service plan, transparency, water issues, and hiring more administrators. 

In 2022, two Morrow Commissioners were ousted in a recall. Drago was appointed to replace one of them (and Wenholz defeated the other in a general election).

Petitioners handed in 725, 748 and 726 signatures and needs 613 valids for each (15% of gubernatorial turnout).

Drago ran in a May 21 primary, though he seems to have come in second (649-638-501-391)
