Make a new ammendment to the recall petition.

Rejected 9 signatures

What the petition asks

Add a new ammendment to the recall petition that allows local constituencies to petition to remove their elected officials if they feel they are not representing them as promised or have lied to or deceived their constituency to win vote for their position.
We need to eradicate politicians that are not representing their constituency to their full potential and we shouldn't have to put up with that for four years until the next election. This would put pressure on elected representatives to stand up to their role and avoid getting involved in corruption like we see happening all the time. 10% of the constituencies vote should be enough to call a by election.
