Sangamon County Board member Sam Cahnman is once again trying to get a motion passed that would allow recall elections in Sangamon County.
Cahnman has already failed to get the motion passed on three different occasions.
The big sticking point from some on the board is are recall elections even allowed according to the Illinois Constitution.
Illinois’ state constitution doesn’t say much about recall elections. In 2010, voters approved a new amendment that allows the governor to be recalled, but it doesn’t say anything about local officials.
Cahnman is hoping his resolution passes this time around.
