Louisiana: Richwood Mayor Survives Recall Vote

Richwood Mayor Gerald Brown survived a recall vote, 101-153. 

Petitioners handed in 462 valid signatures, so turnout was much lower.

Brown blames supporters of the previous Mayor Ed Harris for the recall, as well as Aldermen Wysinger Cleveland, Wilbert Reed Jr. and Alderwoman Leola Keys. Harris was apparently banned from holding office due to malfeasance. He is now once again eligible. The claims were general complaints over public safety, economic development and management issues.
