Another recall begins
This one in Michigan where Governor Rick Snyder will face a recall election if enough signatures can be collected in the next 90 days.
Snyder is being targeted for promoting a series of initiatives that, in the language of the petition, “take authority and funds from local government and school districts,” gives emergency financial managers “the power to invalidate legal and binding contracts,” and “sought tax increases upon retirees and lower income families (and) large new tax cuts for corporations and businesses.”Gov. Snyder is facing recall, in part, because of his preference for appointed Commissars over elected municipal governments. And in keeping with Republican/Teabagger dislike of democracy, the dirty tricks have already begun.
WARNING:The site mentioned is www.firericksnyder.org. Check in with them if you live in Michigan or want to help Michiganders regain their freedoms.
The first instances of possible sabotage are already occuring in the form of posting false petitions online. On Friday April 29th annarbor.com posted a download-able .pdf of a scanned recall petition. Please be aware that NO online petitions are valid. NO petitions will be made available for download. If you sign one of these false petitions your name can also be removed from the genuine petition. The genuine petitions will have a union stamp on them and will be printed on both the front and back sides. More details on this identifying mark later. In the mean time, NO petitions are available until it is noted on this site.
