November 16, 2005Elmwood petition rejectedTRAVERSE CITY - Leelanau County's election commission rejected the first version of a recall petition targeting Elmwood Township's supervisor but will consider revised language later this month.John Stanek filed a petition Nov. 1 seeking recall of supervisor Derith Smith. The election commission must approve the petition's wording for clarity before circulators can gather signatures. County Clerk Michelle Crocker said that panel voted 2-1 Monday to reject Stanek's initial submission because it did not clearly state whether alleged wrongdoing occurred during her current term of office. Stanek filed an amended petition, and another clarity hearing is scheduled for Nov. 30. Signatures from 511 registered township voters would be necessary to force a recall election.
