In a telephone interview 8-29-11, Michael McDaniel, the driving force behind the Supervisor Spellman recall effort, stated that the recall has been “approved and on the move.”
According to McDaniel, Calaveras County “has approved our petition and verbiage and have given us the green light to start collecting signatures.”
McDaniel and recall supporters have until November 28, 2011 to collect 1702 valid signatures of registered voter residents within the previous District 5. “Our goal is to collect 2000” said McDaniels, hoping to offset the possible invalid signature potential, saying that supporters of the recall don’t want anything “to hamper the recall” effort.
When asked when signature collection would begin, McDaniels stated, “Signatures will begin to be collected by the end of this week.” He also asked for those who wished to become involved to contact him at 981-7200.
In an earlier interview with Supervisor Spellman, Spellman felt that the recall effort was hampering his effectiveness as a Supervisor, stating, “There are so many things I am working on, it (the recall effort) takes away from my ability to be as effective as I could be.” He also asked that voters contact him with any questions and wishing to dispel rumors, he says, “talk to me.”
