UPDATE: Effort to recall Las Vegas mayor suspended

UPDATE July 1: The effort to recall Las Vegas Mayor Carolyn Goodman has been suspended.

Doug Polk the organizer of the recall effort tweeted out the following statement earlier today.

ORIGINAL STORY: Las Vegas Mayor Carolyn Goodman has been very vocal about wanting to reopen the city, and after appearances on national TV, many in the city were asking for her to resign, while others cheered her on.

Doug Polk, a former professional poker player, has done more than simply post on his social media for the mayor to resign, he has filed a notice of intent with the Las Vegas city clerk to try and recall the mayor.

"We are recalling the mayor because over the last few weeks, she has failed to represent her constituency responsibly. Not only in her clear disregard for public health but also with her support for the casino owners over the people of Las Vegas," Polk told 13 Action News. "Additionally, she is barely able to speak coherent sentences while discussing the subject matter. She is unfit to serve as the mayor of Las Vegas.

The Committee to Recall Carolyn Goodman, formed by Polk, has been notified by the city clerk on the next steps it must take for a recall to be successful.
