There s still a few hours to drop your ballot for Ontario s recall election

ONTARIO — As of noon today, only 27.4% of ballots that went out to 6,278 registered voters for the City Councilor Recall Election have been returned. Today is Election Day and ballots can still be dropped off in an official ballot box in Ontario or Vale until 8 p.m. tonight. The Ontario drop box is outside the Ontario Community Library, 388 S.W. Second Ave. and the Vale drop box is in the parking lot behind the Malheur County Courthouse, on the corner of C and Bryant streets. Only a simple majority of votes is needed in order to determine whether Ontario City Councilor Freddy Rodriguez will be recalled.

Early results show voters decide to recall Freddy Rodriguez

O NTARIO — Ontario voters overwhelmingly elected to recall Freddy Rodriguez from the Ontario City Council, according to the complete unofficial results of the City Councilor Recall Election released shortly before 10 p.m. Tuesday night by Malheur County Clerk Gayle Trotter. Ballot boxes in Ontario and Vale closed at 8 p.m. Results will not be official until July 21; as such, Rodriguez could theoretically attend the next regular meeting in an official capacity of the Ontario City Council on July 14. “It is unofficial until I certify to the City and they (the City) determine the results,” wrote Trotter in an email this morning.

Councilor has 5 days to resign or wait for voters to decide

ONTARIO — Ontario City Councilor Freddy Rodriguez has five days to resign, justify why he shouldn’t, or do nothing and wait for a special election for voters to decide on whether he should remain in office. Ontario City Recorder Tori Barnett provided an update to the newspaper this morning. She was just notified from Malheur County Clerk Gayle Trotter that enough signatures had been certified, so there was no need to validate any more of those turned in. If needed, petition circulators had until June 7 to collect signatures. Petitioner Cydney Cooke filed paperwork on March 9 to recall Rodriguez. A request for comment from Cooke has not yet been returned.
