ESCANABA, Mich. (WZMQ) – The third Delta County commissioner battling recall efforts has submitted challenges to the petition filed against him.
Members of the Delta County Citizens for Ethical Leadership circulated petitions supporting the recall of County Commissioners David Moyle, Bob Barron, and Robert Petersen. Moyle’s and Barron’s recalls have been confirmed for the May 2024 ballot.
Petersen had until December 4 to challenge any of the signatures submitted for his district. According to Delta County Clerk Nancy Przewrocki, Petersen submitted a list of challenges that morning.
Przewrocki will now go through each challenge to determine if the recall petition has a minimum of 775 valid signatures. A total 953 signatures were submitted by the petition’s circulators.
WZMQ 19 reached out to Petersen for comment but has not yet received a response.
