Path to the ballot

See also: Laws governing recall in Florida

Florida law gives petitioners 30 days from the date the first signature is collected to gather signatures. The signature requirement varies based on the number of registered voters in the jurisdiction. Upon signature verification, the targeted official may write a 200-word response, which would be included in the petition circulated for a second round of signature gathering. In the second round, petitioners are required to collect signatures from 15% of the district's registered voters. Once those signatures are verified, the city must schedule a recall election where all registered voters in the district can vote on recalling the official.

Recall organizers were required to submit 306 valid signatures in the first round of gathering.
