The Old Gay Mayor Just Ain't What He Used To Be
Judge OKs Recall Effort Vs. Spokane Mayor
A recall petition drive against Mayor James E. West over a gay sex scandal can proceed, a judge ruled Monday.
Benton County Superior Court Judge Craig J. Matheson threw out two of the recall allegations against West. However, the allegation that West improperly offered city jobs to men he met in gay online chat rooms should be put before voters, the judge ruled.
