The Recall Bonin 2021 campaign has fallen about 1,350 signatures short of the amount needed to trigger a recall, city officials said.
Organizers say they intend to launch a new effort to recall Councilman Kevin de León in January.
“Recall proponents and reelection challengers oppose housing and services and insist on doubling down on failed, expensive strategies, like pushing unhoused people from block to block or throwing them in jail,” he said in a statement. “I am pleased by today’s news, and I am going to keep on fighting for what I know is right.”
Recall proponent Katrina Schmitt said her group plans to confer with its lawyer and review the signatures that were discarded. The recall group, she said, remains dedicated to “making sure that Bonin is out of public office.” Had the recall measure qualified for the ballot on Tuesday, city officials would probably have worked to consolidate the recall with the regularly scheduled June 7 election, where Bonin is expected to appear on the ballot anyway.
