2017 Recall
November 7th, 2017, all 3 Custer County Commissioners face a recall election. The Commissioners are Bob Kattnig, Donna Hood, and Jay Printz. All 3 are registered Republicans.
For recalls, Custer County requires signatures that total 25% of the number of total ballots cast in the respective position's previous election. Kettnig's recall needed 470 signatures, 582 for Printz, and 735 for Hood. Signatures were due by September 7th, but all three were turned in on August 14, 2017. Signatures were certified (763 counted for Kattnig, 745 for Printz, and 778 for Hood) on August 31, 2017, officially triggering the recall election.
The group behind the recall, Take Back Custer County Recall Committee, consists of three primary people: Marjorie Ann Barthrop, Marjorie Ann Willson, and Mike Haga. All three are registered Republicans, according to the Pueblo Chieftain. All three are said to be of Westcliffe, but only Willson is registered in Westcliffe. A Marjorie A. Barthrop is found registered in Arapahoe County (Centennial). Cannot find reliable registration info for Mike (or Michael) Haga.
