2nd Luna Recall Ready To Launch
Organizers of this year’s failed attempt to oust Idaho’s public schools chief from office say their second try to recall Tom Luna will be better organized. The initial attempt to put a recall question on Idaho ballots during an
August special election fell woefully short of the mark. The Committee to Recall Tom Luna needed to collect nearly 160,000 verifiable signatures of Idaho voters to get the recall question on the ballot, but organizers said they’d collected only 50,000 signatures by their June deadline. Pete Peterson, campaign manager for the 2012 Luna Recall Committee, said last week that the effort to put the recall question to Idaho voters in November 2012 will be better organized. Peterson said the group is organizing sooner than it did last year, and has learned from a host of mistakes made last year/

Question: Did you sign a recall petition for Idaho Superintendent Tom Luna earlier this year? Do you plan to sign a petition for the reorganized attempt to recall him?
