THE TRUTH ABOUT THE JOHN WEST RECALL
Lily Morgan recently appeared on television for an interview in an attempt to justify her recall effort while placing the blame for its $60,000 cost on Commissioner John West. This is yet another misrepresentation.
Clarifying the Cost of the Recall
Morgan claims that Commissioner West’s decision to take the recall to a vote is costing taxpayers $60,000. However, it’s crucial to understand that the recall effort was initiated by Morgan and her group. The financial burden of this process falls squarely on those who chose to pursue it—not on Commissioner West, who is simply exercising his democratic right to defend his position.
Blaming Commissioner West for the cost is misleading and unfair. The real responsibility lies with those who have chosen to push this recall, knowing full well the financial implications for Josephine County taxpayers.
Addressing Intimidation Claims
Morgan has also accused Commissioner West of using lawsuits to intimidate various groups over the years. However, she has failed to provide specific examples or verifiable evidence to substantiate these serious claims. Public discourse must be grounded in facts, not baseless accusations designed to discredit someone’s character.
If these allegations were true, Morgan should present clear, documented evidence to support them. Without proof, these accusations remain nothing more than rhetoric.
Respecting the Voters’ Decision
Ultimately, the recall election is now in the hands of Josephine County voters. They deserve an honest, fact-based discussion about the issues at hand—free from personal attacks and unsubstantiated claims. Let’s focus on transparency, truth, and the democratic process.
