Carthage Ward 5 voters showed Councilwoman Tiffany Cossey the door today,
The results, which were announced moments ago at the Jasper County Courthouse, showed 730 voting yes on the recall, or 61.5 percent, with 457 voters or 38.5 percent voting for her to remain on the council.
Cossey's ultimately successful push to impeach Mayor Dan Rife and remove City Administrator Greg Dagnan and City Attorney Nate Dally (who resigned) led to the push to remove her from the council.

A historic decision in Carthage. First, ever, recall of a Council member. Democracy in action. I’m absolutely proud of the citizens of Ward 5, and those who worked to bring this question to them on the ballot. The citizens have spoken, and it wasn’t even close. You cannot behave in these outrageously malicious ways and expect to be respected and given the chance to represent the citizens.
