Sheriff Big Hair's recall election set for Nov. 4

Category: Recall · State: Montana · Source: Missoulian

A special election on whether to recall embattled Big Horn County Sheriff Lawrence "Pete" Big Hair will be held on the same day as the Nov. 4 general election. County Clerk and Recorder Cyndy Maxwell said Tuesday that voters would get a separate paper ballot to decide whether to recall Big Hair. The ballots will be hand-counted separately from the general election ballot, she said. Organizers of a recall petition drive gathered enough signatures by last Friday to hold the election. They turned in 1,157 signatures from Big Horn County voters - two more than was needed. Big Hair declined to comment about the election at a town hall meeting in Fort Smith on Tuesday, saying he would have to talk to his attorney.
