Idaho: Filer mayor and council recall fails, though petition disputes rejection reasons

The attempt to recall Filer Mayor Rick Dunn and City Council members Ruby Allen, Christina Hatch and Gary Dietrick over the firing of the Police Chief and a move to have the Sheriff provide coverage was reported to have failed after petitioners handed 230 signatures. 196 were needed to get on the ballot. Signatures were rejected because they didn't match the voter registration card, they registered to vote after they signed the petitions or they moved. Petitions are complaining specifically about the rejection over the registration cards.

The petition was led by the wife of a police officer.
