Oregon: Four Gervais officials losing in recall vote

Gervais Mayor Andrea Gilland and City Councilors John Harvey, Michael Gregory and Rob Ladd are losing in the first release of numbers, with 60% against. So far, 29% of voters have turned out.

The recall is over the firing of the police chief. Previously, the city manager, pro-tem manager, recorder and legal counsel all left. 

Petitioners needed 108 signatures to get to the ballot.

In 2023, two Gervais Councilors were ousted.
