| Description | OLYMPIA -- Frustrated with how Sam Reed handled the recounts in the governor's race, a group is trying to recall the secretary of state.
An online group accuses Reed of malfeasance and a violation of the oath of office for his role in certifying Democrat Christine Gregoire as governor.
The group's petition was e-mailed to the office of the Republican secretary of state yesterday by Martin Ringhofer, a Boeing Co. employee who ran for the Seattle School Board and lost in 1999. Ringhofer said the petition was conceived and drafted through Web logs, discussion groups and e-mail.
Reed, who took his oath of office for his second term yesterday, said he isn't concerned.
"I haven't seen what they filed, but what I've done is upheld my office and complied with the state laws for Washington," Reed said. "I would have to say that no one in the course of this has asked me to do anything improper or unfair." |
