| Description | SPOKANE, Wash. Dec 6, 2005 — Mayor James E. West was recalled from office Tuesday in a special election over allegations he offered jobs and perks to young men he met in a gay Internet chat room.
West, 54, became the city's first elected chief executive to be ousted before his term expired.
With just over half of the 110,000 mail-in ballots counted, 38,718, or 65 percent, voted to recall West, while 20,681, or 35 percent, voted to retain him. |
