26 Recall Elections Today

Joshua Spivak points out that in an otherwise less-than-memorable Election Day, there will be at least 26 recall elections across the country today, including two big state legislative recalls — the first time in history that two states will have a state-level recalls on the same day.

It’s not clear if the recalls today is a record — because no one has kept statistics — but it does point to the growing use of the recall.
