An effort to recall Commissioner Trenton Bowens in Benton Harbor, Michigan, from his position was launched in November 2013. The recall effort was triggered after Bowens voted "yes" to allow the city income tax proposal to be placed on the November 5 ballot. The measure was defeated by voters.[1][2] As of December 2015, this recall effort appeared to be abandoned and Ballotpedia discontinued active coverage. Please contact us if new developments occur with this recall effort.
