The recall effort against Otero County Commissioner Couy Griffin appears to have failed. Petitioners collected 1229 signatures and needed 1574 in 90 days.
Griffin faced a recall for his role in rioting at the U.S. Capitol on January 6. Griffin, the founder of Cowboys for Trump, was arrested and charged with misdemeanor criminal charges. Griffin denies that he violated the law. A judge greenlit the recall effort (New Mexico is a Malfeasance Standard state).
In addition, Griffin has been accused of calling for the murder of the Governors of Virginia and Michigan, and called for violence at President Joe Biden's inauguration.
