The Hudak recall thread

[sturn18]

Didn't they try to get the signatures while the other recall petitions were out?

I wonder who is heading this up. I would hope they will swallow their pride and take from the examples that have been set before them. I pray this is not just for their own publicity.

I believe they initially shut down the efforts to recall Hudak to help with the Morse and Giron recalls.

They had shut down the Hudak effort because the volunteer-only effort wasn't getting enough signatures fast enough under the 60-day timeline. They've learned a lot of lessons (like just how tight that 60 day timeline gets and the importance of vetting the signatures as you get them). This is worth doing, they just need to plan out the work and timelines so they can get it done -- very hard with volunteer labor but even worse if you don't have everything ready to go before you drop the petition off at the Secretary of State.

Many of the Hudak recall volunteers came down south to help out with Morse and Giron. I plan on going up north to help them when I have time.

Evil Hudak needs to go -- strike while the iron's hot.

I'll post my last post in that thread here.

"There is a recallhudaktoo.org and facebook site now claiming to be the "official" recall effort. They claim to have an SOS approved recall petition.

Does anyone know who the proper organizers for this recall effort really are? Seems the one first posted here is still engaged in bad mouthing the one I linked above. recallhudaktoo is taking donations and also seems to have more known backers - (yea, Dudley's in there but whatever.)"

Mike McAlpine. I worked with him doing volunteer recruiting during the first attempt. I haven't gotten in touch with him again, but the recall is up and running again as of today. I spoke with Susan, who is working with him, this afternoon. RMGO has apparently pledged to hire paid petitioners if the volunteer base isn't properly established, but I think this is a case of Proper Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance.

Ugh, they submitted their petition for SoS approval already before getting their volunteer base in order? So they're going to be in the final stages of collecting signatures while people are thinking about Thanksgiving? That's bloody marvelous. I'll do what I can to help them but I have a bad feeling about this ...

[mountainjenny]

The have to collect a large number of signatures. I'm betting it will take paid help even if they have a good volunteer base. Wishing them luck and if time frees up I will volunteer again.

I'd be all for the recall but is it "going to the trough" one too many times?
