Arizona coronavavirus protest organizer seeks recall of Gov. Ducey

Calling him a “tyrant” who has violated his oath of office, a Gilbert resident who has been helping to organize protests at the Capitol against the COVID-19 restrictions imposed by Gov. Doug Ducey is now seeking to oust him from office.

The governor’s executive orders are unconstitutional, legal papers filed Friday with the secretary of state’s office contend.

So Marko Trickovic wants to force a special election not only to remove Ducey from office before his term ends at the end of 2022, but also to give voters a chance to select someone else.

The burden is substantial: He and his allies need 594,111 signatures by Aug. 29 to force an election. But given the normal disqualification rate on petitions, the more realistic goal could be closer to 750,000 signatures. Trickovic, chair of what he is calling Arizonans for Liberty, acknowledged the hurdle. But he said there are enough people who are angry with the governor for shutting down the state’s economy in the name of fighting the virus and for doing it in an illegal way.

Insiders tell NATIONAL FILE that Ducey might not be a trustworthy leader in the cause of re-opening the state economy.

Minnesota is working on it. but.. in order to recall it’s got to go through several state departments that are run by democrats..

to say the state side of the recall movement is a slow walk would not be correct.. a dead slug moves faster.
