Cindy Elgan has overseen elections in rural Nevada without incident for 20 years, but now even her neighbors wonder if she’s part of “the deep state cabal.”
Misfeasance quite literally means, in this statute and in a legally denotative sense, you did something someone deems inappropriate or wrong, but not necessarily harmful or illegal. I.e., you did something someone(s) didn’t like.
You’re literally arguing against your own point now. And honestly, I meant it and still mean it when I say I have so much respect for you. I don’t understand what’s happening right now.
No, what they are doing in Nevada is an imagined grievance. They have no evidence, because nothing was done. No recall should be allowed without evidence.

There are a handful of examples of recalls without crimes by the official; Santa Clara County in California recalled a judge because people felt he was lenient with a rapist for example.
The big difference with this one is that the things the recall proponents dislike are all imagined.
I mean, being lenient with a rapist would be a breach of official duties and is well beyond the generic call of “well, we don’t like you.”
Here in Portland we had a problem with the DA failing to prosecute people, which, you know, is kind of his job?
We didn’t recall him, we just voted him out in the next election.

We’ll see if the next guy wants to do the job starting in January.
