Organizers initiated the recall process by filing a petition with the Genesee County Clerk’s Office on February 24, 2023. The county election commission held a hearing on March 9, 2023, to determine whether the petition could be circulated.

The commission rejected the petition language due to errors, but organizers said that they planned to refile the petition.

In March 2023, the election commission approved a revised version of the petition for circulation.

For a special election to be scheduled, organizers would have needed to collect signatures equalling 25% of city voters who cast a vote in the previous gubernatorial election.
