by Austin Herbaugh, Mike Mangas
REDDING, Calif. — Recall Shasta supporters say they have collected enough signatures to trigger a recall election against District 2 Supervisor Leonard Moty.
Late Wednesday morning, supporters of the movement to recall three Shasta County supervisors carried two boxes with signed petitions into the Shasta County Clerk’s Office. They were turned in around five hours ahead of the 5 p.m. deadline.
Recall Shasta needed 4,300 valid signatures to put the Moty Recall on the ballot. They say they’ve collected more than 6,000.
After the petitions were turned in, Registrar of Voters Cathy Darling Allen said that her office has 30 working days to check every single signature.
Not enough signatures were collected to recall Joe Chimenti or Mary Rickert.
