The motivation for the recall is the belief that Sheriff Wowak has not enforced the county's moratorium against the installation of so-called "smart meters".
Recall supporters
Josh Hart, the founder of StopSmartMeters.org, was a leader in the recall effort. He said, "We don't think we will have any trouble collecting the signatures, but we don't relish the idea of recalling the sheriff. If the sheriff wants to do his job and enforce the law, and stop PG&E from installing illegally ... that is what we would like to see happen."[1]
