Geaux Teacher!: EDUCATION AGENDA INCLUDES RECALLS!

Geaux Teacher!: EDUCATION AGENDA INCLUDES RECALLS!:


EDUCATION AGENDA INCLUDES RECALLS!

I have received proposals by a number of groups planning to sponsor recalls for several of our legislators who voted for Governor Jindal's education bills. Here is information regarding the process. I will post updates as this initiative progresses. You will need to know the name and district number of the legislators who represent you as you can only sign a recall petition for your representative/senator. 


Recall Elections

No recall petition may be submitted for certification to or accepted for certification by the registrar of voters or any other official if less than six months remain in the term of office.

Once the first signature is obtained, the recall petition becomes a public record with the chairman or vice chairman as custodian. After the petition is submitted to the Registrar of Voters, the chairman or vice chairman shall no longer be the custodian.

1. Copy of recall petition is filed with SOS by chairman of recall committee.

2. The completed petition is submitted to the Registrar(s) of Voters:

Not later than 180 days after
