Letter: Those repeating recall bid should pay some of the cost

A perfect example is the money that is being wasted to try to recall County Commission Chairwoman Yvonne Atkinson Gates ($29,000).

These groups of people who are submitting the petitions for a recall should be required to pay a good portion of the cost of the recall, instead of expecting the taxpayers of the state of Nevada to pay it for them. I don't think that it is fair that those who have the attitude that if they do not succeed they are free to try again (another recall), using our tax dollars.
