  • X-topic: Choice 2


Would the recall process be an effective way to hold elected officials accountable and to ensure that the public's concerns are heard? How would you reconcile this action with the concerns about voter apathy and citizens disengagement?

What questions do we need to ask ourselves before we are comfortable that we have fully explored the benefits and trade-offs of this action?
