A petition demanding the removal of any officer elected by the vote of the people
shall be known as a recall petition. A recall petition, to be effective, must be filed
with the City Clerk, or with the election authorities, within thirty (30) days after
the filing of the affidavit as provided in the next preceding section, and to be sufficient,
must bear the signatures of registered voters of the City or district from which such
officer was elected equal in number to at least twenty per cent (20%) of the total
vote cast therein for candidates for the office of Mayor at the last preceding regular
municipal election. A recall petition, if insufficient as originally filed, may be
supplemented as provided in this article. The committee of petitioners hereinafter
described shall have the right, at their option, to file a recall petition either
with the City Clerk or with the election authorities of the City, and the City Clerk
or the election authorities, as the case may be, with equal force and effect, shall
have the power to certify as to the sufficiency of such recall petition.
