Welcome to Ballotpedia's recall portal

Welcome to Ballotpedia's coverage of recall elections! Recalls are the process by which an elected official can be removed from office via a public effort before their term is completed. Click the following links for more information:

Our goal is to cover every recall effort that is officially underway across the United States. We consider a recall effort to be officially underway if some form of paperwork has been submitted to begin the recall process.

Recall outcome statistics

Ballotpedia's mid-year recall report stated that there were 164 recall efforts against 266 officials in the United States in the first half of 2024.

The chart below details the results of recall efforts that were resolved by reaching the ballot, failing to reach the ballot, or due to a resignation. ​This chart will be updated when Ballotpedia's year-end report is published in December 2024.
