RECALL UPDATE!!!!!
At 1 PM on October 4, 2006, Mr Roger Hall presented 4,766 Recall Petitions to Marco Island City Clerk, Ms. Litzan. Specifically, Mr. Hall submittd 1,583 petitions for the recall of Councilman Trotter, 1,583 petitions for the recall of Councilman Minozzi and 1,609 petitions for the recall of Councilman Tucker. Mr Hall was required to have 10% (1,340 petitions) of the registered voters of Marco Island. It seems Mr Hall has exceeded that number.
The petitions will be counted, copies made and then provided to the Supervisor of Elections, Collier County for Certification. In the absence of legal objections (injunctions, restraining orders, etc.), upon Certification, the individuals named in the recall petition have five (5) days to file their response to the petition. At that point, Mr Hall has 60 days to get 15% of the registered voters (approx. 2,010 ) to sign petitions to be submitted to the Supervisor of Elections. When and if certified, a Circuit Judge will set a Recall Election in no less than 30 days and not more than 60 days. Stay tuned!!
