Massachusetts: Barnstable County Commissioners reject recall proposal

Barnstable County Commissioners rejected a move against passing along a proposal for a recall election provision to the state legislature. The Assembly of Delegates had previously passed the bill. The recall would have had a malfeasance standard and required at least 120 signatures, with at least 20 from each of five county municipalities for its first stage and then 3 percent of registered voters (with 50 from each county) to get on the ballot.

Recalls have been discussed since 2017 in the county.
