Deadline passes, no recall petitions filed, BCN

Wimbledon (CSi) With the April 27th deadline to turn in petitions, and following almost six months of unrest and calls for a recall, of Barnes County North School Board President Lori Carlson, it appears there will be no recall election.

As of April 27th proponents of the recall did not turn in a petition with signatures of qualified voters.

As of Thursday, no recall petition had been submitted for either Carlson or Anne Osborne, another member who was asked to be recalled by the public.

32 qualified signatures, or 25 percent of the 125 voters who voted in the last election, were needed for the petition to be submitted. There’s not expected to be another push for a recall election.
