Recall Commissioner Hull?

There has been mention of Hull being the "ringleader" or "troublemaker" among our 
county commissioners.
Rather than wait until he comes up for re-election down the road and suffer the wrongs done by him and the others in that circle.....does anyone want to take the lead here and begin a recall petition to remove his voice from the local discord and perhaps gain a new unbiased commissioner?
Please let us know what your thoughts are, what you would like to see happen and when??
I have set up a new poll so we can see how many believe Hull is detrimental to our county.
Please check it out and vote.  Comments are welcome!

What a great idea, I live in Voltz district or I would, Louie is a good commissioner. I hear over here what a nut Hull is. Very racist and wants our Sheriff gone!!! For that reason alone without the rest is a good one to remove him.

Before anyone gets too excited better check state law and find out what would happen if a commissioner is recalled. Do other commissioners appoint another one? Special election?? Buck resigned and we got Horton. HUH! Give this some very serious thought. Vince & Chad need cooperation, county wide, and is this the right way to go??

Checking into SDCL it seems to me that if a petition demanding a recall election were signed by 15% of registered votes in that district it would happen. period.
The key word here is RECALL ELECTION. The petition would have to state that a replacement would be elected by the voters, not named by the remaining commissioners.
I believe that is about the only way that Vince and Chad will be treated professionally & fairly.

The ball is in your hands Roberts County voters....are you going to keep dribbling or are you going to throw it??

Pleaseeeeeeee someone throw it !!!!!

All we have heard is just how bad Hull is for his district and the county at large. I couldn't agree more with the Administrator that the time has come to act and act now. BUT whoever starts the petition should be prepared with a good replacement and be prepared also for what the gang is going to throw at them. You know what they tried with Vince so "BE Prepared"

Please post your E I would like to _"talk"to you Thanks

Anyone wanting to email the administrator can click on the moving envelope on our site and a message box will pop up for you to send a message to me.

Dartman is right that you need to get things in line before beginning this process. Have a person lined up who will be "electable" and make sure your petition is complete, that your signers are all registered voters living in Hull's district etc.

You have 60 days to complete the petition and with the current time-frame it would seem the replacement would be voted on in the regular fall election, not a special one.

You need to cite "reasons" for this recall. Some are listed below and I think all or most would apply:

misconduct, gross incompetency, corruption, oppression, gross partiality....

I want the E address of the person whos going to do the petition. Also add racism to Hulls list, remember the fry bread and soup commet plus many others. Nows the time for someone to contact the senior that hes going after. She was at alot of meetings and called him on many things per the Sota.

I am the one who said I would carry the re-call petition on Hull. I didn't get a chance to get off of work early - like I planned so I didn't get a chance to get up to the court house - but Friday for sure. Here is my addy: idea_justice_2008@yahoo.com
Also I need some clarification, on district; ward; precinct. I am in district 1 or is it ward 1...I will get this straight.

I need suggestions on who person who would voluntgeer to replace Hull. I don't know everyone in my district so I will need help there as well.

What do you mean be prepared?

District one is it.

I think hes saying be prepared for "gang"retaiation. They go after anyone who stands up to them. Or just be prepared in your petition and have all your ducks in a row. I'm sure when you start getting it signed and talk to people they will gladly give you names of some one to run. Check out Dennis Shultz (insurance man). He may be interested. Best of luck!!!!!

dartman said...

Yes, that is what I meant, "Be prepared". Have all the "i's" dotted and the "T's" crossed AND be sure there are no skeletons in your or your family's closet and the same for the person named as a replacement. the nasty letter mailed just before the last election tells you how low they will go to stop what we are trying to accomplish. Good luch!

Wheres the guy/gal who was going to take out the petition on Hull recall? Did you get it? We are waiting for you to come around. Pen is ready!!!!

Administrator said...

Please don't drop the ball on the Hull recall petition just because we have our old blog back.
It's great to have the old blog working again, but I'm posting here in case the person who said they were going to start getting signatures on a petition might think there is no need now.
There is a need!! We NEED Hull gone!! We don't want to wait until he comes up for reelection. We need to act NOW!
Please contact me if you run into any problems.
Thanks for doing this and good luck!!
