The recall effort against Port Richey Mayor John Eric Hoover failed. Petitioners handed in 275 signatures and got 248 valid. They needed 250. Petitioners say they will try again.
The recall comes after ethics complaints filed by a former City Council member and former Building Official. The recall makes claims about interference with officials, and acting for personally enrichment and failure to disclose information.
Due to Florida law, petitioners need to hand in 250 signatures, as the city has over 2000 registered voters (it has 2097).
The failure was due to 15 signers being either unregistered or in another county; 3 signature mismatches; 6 outside the city addresses; 1 missing witness and 2 missing voter ID or DOB.
