    Many states require recalls be run for cause, I personally believe ALL recalls should be run that way.

    If you don’t have a reason for a recall beyond “feelings” then there is no reason for a recall.

    See how it works in Washington as a good example, this prevents frivolous recalls.

    https://ballotpedia.org/Laws_governing_recall_in_Washington

    “Article I, §33 of the Washington Constitution states that a recall can only occur if the targeted public official has “committed some act or acts of malfeasance or misfeasance while in office, or who has violated his oath of office.”[1]”

    Show the evidence, run the recall.

    No evidence? GTFO. See you next election.
