March 22, 2023 | Louisiana
The efforts to recall New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell have failed.
Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards said Tuesday, following an official count of petition signatures, that only 27,243 signatures of the more than 67,000 on the petition sheets were valid.
That total is approximately 18,000 signature short of what was needed to force a referendum. (Excerpt from Fox News.)
