After he switched parties from Democrat to Republican, some are interested in kicking Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson out of his seat in City Hall.
We reached out to the Instagram page sharing the site, but didn’t get a response. The site also does not list who is responsible for starting the petition. However, text on the site reads: “Join the recall of the Mayor of Dallas, where we’re dedicated to restoring trust in local government by holding our mayor accountable for his party switch. We believe in transparency, accountability, and consistent representation, and we’re actively seeking volunteers to join our cause.
First, a petition demanding the recall of the City Council member must be filed with the city secretary. It must be signed by at least 15% of voters who were qualified to vote in the last election. That's a tall order given the perennial lack of interest in city elections. The petition must contain a general statement about the grounds for removal. On the day the petition is first circulated, the city secretary must be given notice in writing by five registered voters in the council district the member represents. From there, the signatures must be gathered within 60 days. Then the petition must be sent to the city secretary to be certified within 30 days.
The election will be held as if the council position is vacant. The member voters are seeking to recall will automatically be placed on the ballot unless they resign or decide not to run. All other candidates must comply with regular requirements for a general election in the city. Whoever is elected must take the oath of office within 10 days after the canvassing of the election or the seat will be vacant.
Laura Miller three years in a row. In 2003 and 2004, the group failed to obtain the required signatures. But in 2005, the group claimed it got more than enough signatures to recall Miller. In the end however, the group withdrew its effort, saying it did so out of a sense of Christian values.The Wall Street Journal
