Read MoreLegislation proposed last week could allow some Tennessee voters to organize recall elections for local elected officials, should two-thirds of voters be willing to sign a petition after a city or county government adopts a policy allowing the recalls.
The summary for HB 92 explains the legislation would allow Tennessee’s local governments to adopt a process for citizens to initiate recall elections, while the text of the bill specifies such efforts would be limited to members of local government legislative bodies, mayors, sheriffs, trustees, registers, clerks, assessors of property, and school board members.
