Colorado: Walsenburg Mayor and Councilmembers up for May 16 vote

Walsenburg Councilmembers Mayor Charles Bryant and Councilmembers Veronica Maes, Nick Vigil and Carmen Lara are facing recall votes on May 16. 

Councilmember Greg Daniels made the ballot as well, but resigned. 

An earlier effort against Bryant and two other council members, Ricky Jennings and Don Martinez, failed to make the ballot. Bryant is protesting the recall. 

The issue seems to be an internal battle in the government and the mayor has encouraged the recall effort against what he calls a "culture of corruption" saying they need a "hard reset." Apparently, the mayor and  Jennings (who is mayor pro tem) are on one side of the aisle.
