The Pilot Point City Council refused to schedule a recall election against Council member Elizabeth Jones, with the vote 5-1-1 against. The recall appears to be over Jones' hosting the city's Christmas party and receiving $900 (it seems to have cost at least $1200). The claim is that this is a favor for the city that she should not have done (a free party appears to be considered a bribe).
The council is claiming that the petition has questionable dating of the signatures.
Texas has had this issue of councils' refusing to schedule recalls numerous times in the past.
