Off to a great start!

Even with Gustav on everyone's mind, the amount of people that came out tonight was overwhelming. Not only did people come out to sign, but to pick up packets to collect signatures door to door. More volunteers are still needed as we have a lot of ground to cover.

Thank you all for making tonight a huge success. We will be at the Lakefront Gazebo from 10-2 on Saturday. We have plenty of time to collect signatures, so please all be safe and let's hope the storm misses us.

Volunteers Needed

Recalling Mayor Eddie Price can't happen without your help. Mandeville Recall is looking for people like you to step up to the plate and join our grassroots efforts.

Power in numbers.

Next City Council Meeting

Thursday August 28th 7:00

Take back our city

We are an organized group of Mandeville citizens who would like to see Mayor Eddie Price removed from office. Mayor Price has proven to us that he does not lead us responsibly. We are working diligently behind the scenes to dot our i's and cross our t's. When we come forth with the recall petition in the near future, we want everything to go off without a hitch. As of August 20th, there were 7,993 registered voters in the city limits of Mandeville. Twenty five percent of those voter signatures are required to file the recall petition. We hope when the petition comes available that you will put your pen to action and do the right thing.

Stay tuned for press releases and additional information. We will notify the press when we are ready to speak.
