The fallout from a judge’s decision to block a recall effort continued this morning.
Mayor Ron Littlefield held a press conference emphasizing unity, flanked by current and past elected officials.
“At this time, we should not take our attention off the task at hand,” Littlefield said.
He said for much of the last few weeks, the recall effort had distracted him from being able to effectively govern.
An hour before the conference, the Hamilton County Election Commission briefly met and decided it did not need to address putting the recall on the Nov. 2 because Circuit Judge Jeff Hollingsworth ruled on Tuesday that petitioners did not have enough signatures.
