The process by which voters may remove a public officer before the end of his term of office is called "recall". This means that voters can petition to have an elected official removed from their position before their term is up. The recall process usually involves collecting a certain number of signatures on a petition to trigger a special election, in which voters can decide whether to remove the official from office or allow them to continue serving their term. The recall process is a way for voters to hold elected officials accountable and ensure that they are representing the interests of their constituents.
