Bishop Recall Circulators Can Ask Again For Petition Applications But Have Decided To Focus On November Elections Instead

***Error Made In Interpretation Of Laws***

The group in Bishop that submitted a rejected application to begin the recall process for that city’s mayor and three member of its Council can restart the process at any time, according to a new interpretation of the state laws covering recalls.

Despite that option, Jacob Spaulding, who picked up the application forms and returned them to the Oconee County Office of Elections and Registration on March 3, said that he and his colleagues have decided to end their recall efforts.
