CHESAPEAKE, Ohio â The recall petition for Chesapeake Mayor Kim Oldaker wonât be on the November general election ballot, according to Lawrence County Prosecuting Attorney Brigham Anderson.
âThere is a removal process under Ohio law, but it doesnât consist of a recall petitionâ in the village of Chesapeake, Anderson said.
Mack Anderson, an assistant prosecuting attorney, reviewed the recall question at the request of the Lawrence County Board of Elections.
Anderson said Chesapeake is a non-chartered municipality and thus is not authorized to have a recall election under Ohio law.
Terry Griffin, a Chesapeake resident who collected signatures for the recall petition and filed it with the board of elections, said Thursday he knew a recall would be a tough battle.
