Here’s my story about the history of DC recalls First authorized in 1979, none of the 7 people who’ve been mayor, 66 or so who’ve been a @councilofdc member, 2 elected AGs have ever been subjected to a recall election. Only Jack Evans was close

Media reports about the DC Council recall efforts mention that no DC CM has ever been recalled. That understates - aside from the ANC level, there has NEVER been a recall election in DC history, period. 3 ANC have been recalled (out of 6 elections).

. @SnappysDC is fuckin awesome, as advertised. Nice to meet co-owner Sean Ryan and company. Five people have bought the Cheers shots ($6 for everyone in the bar) - (it would have cost over $400 but knocked it down to $300)
