California: Palo Alto Board recall effort fails to hit first hurdle

A recall effort against Palo Alto Board of Education Vice President Shounak Dharap failed to get enough valid signatures to meet the first hurdle to get petitions (they need 30 names). Interestingly, two had signature mismatches. 

The recall effort seems to be over a vote to require a freshman ethnic studies course.

Petitioners would need over 7600 signatures to get to the ballot.
