Does a recall option exist in the Louisiana Constitution? Not all states have recall provisions. Many of the older states that were admitted before the Progressive Era lack initiative, referendum (except for bond issues) and recall provisions.

How does one recall a Governor of Louisiana?

How many signatures do you need?

How much time can the petition be active?

What part of the Louisiana Constitution outlines a recall of a Governor?

What are your plans when the vast majorities of voters in New Orleans and Baton Rouge do not advocate your theoretical petition?

How about recalling Governors in states that did not side with Texas in their lawsuit?

Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, and Wisconsin have opposed Texas, as have at total of 20 other states, D.C, and two territories in a Brief file by D.C.

The District of Columbia together with the States and territories of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Guam, Hawaii, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, U.S. Virgin Islands, and Washington ….

Ohio takes no side, but wants the Court to decide the substantive issue of whether quickly “whether the Electors Clause permits state courts (and state executive officials) to alter the rules by which presidential elections are conducted.” Arizona’s Brief isn’t in the docket yet, but its Motion suggests it’s not taking a side but wants a quick court decision.

Rather than recall, how about you demand in-person voting, with ID and proof of registration and paper ballots. No precincts reporting until everything is closed and counted at a central location under supervision.

No longer letting New Orleans and a few other cities being able to tilt the election results at the last minute

While you’re at it, do the same in Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Kentucky and Michigan. Imagine what the results could be.

And not just for Governor, SOS, Lt Gov and Senators, also. Or just repeal the 17th Amendment to take care of that problem.

Last week Edwards said that since we started shooting vaccines in La. ( Dec. 14 ), we forgot to record race of recipients. The overwhelming majority were distributed in New Orleans, Baton Rouge, and Shreveport areas. Guess where Edwards’ voters live?
