Cordele Commission Chairman Joshua A. Deriso is facing a recall effort over complaints about removing a picture from the police department, insulting another commissioner and kicking one of the lead petitioners out of the movement.

Petitioners have gathered 126 signatures, they need 100 valids to move to the next stage. Georgia is a malfeasance standard/judicial recall state, so a judge will have to sign off. Petitioners are shooting for 2000 signatures, though it's unclear how many they need from the stories.
