Recall supporters
Former District 5 Supervisor Russ Thomas, who Spellman defeated in the November 2010 election, was a supporter of the recall effort. Bill Crane and Michael McDaniel were also recall supporters. [1]
Reasons for recall
Spellman was faulted for announcing his intention to run for Congress several months after he began serving as a county supervisor. He was accused of voting against funding for a county staffer to serve as a representative to assist military veterans. He was also accused of leaving early from or failing to attend board meetings. [1]
Path to the ballot
Recall organizers turned in 1,336 signatures. They needed at least 1,702 valid signatures to force a recall election. [1]
