Texas: Petitions taken out against Jasper County Commission Chair

Petitions have been taken out against Jasper County Commission Chairman Don Jernigan. Petitioners need 768 signatures (30% of registereds) in 30 days to get on the ballot. There is a malfeasance standard, so a judge will rule on whether the petitions show the grounds for the recall. 

The issue seems to be a zoning approval, with claims that open meeting laws were violated by working with three commissioners on text.
