ELYRIA — The Lorain County Board of Elections today announced that the petitions filed to prompt a recall vote of Elyria Mayor Bill Grade fell short of the required signatures.
Of the 2.629 signatures turned in by members of Stand Up Elyria, only 1,857 were deemed valid, according to a report released today.
The petitions needed to be signed by 2,270 people – which represent 25 percent of the voters that case their ballots in the November 2007 general municipal election.
The Board of Elections found that 772 signatures were invalid for a number of reasons.
