[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Success can be measured different ways. It sends a message when enough residents are disgusted with a local official's behavior that they are the subject of a recall effort, especially if the effort gathers enough signatures to trigger judicial scrutiny of the official's conduct. If a new election is required, even better. At a minimum, it appears that, by July, there will be enough signatures to recall Elaine Tholen to require her to show cause why she should not be unseated. [/quote] What does that mean? “Show cause”? [/quote] It means the burden of proof is on the official who is the subject of the recall petition to convince the judge she did not engage in the misconduct claimed in the petition signed by thousands of county residents. The official can’t just sit back and hope the judge tosses out the recall petition as bogus. [/quote]
