Anti-Recall Site Launches.

Citizens for Akron, the official political committee countering Warner Mendenhall's recall effort err the entirely spontaneous grassroots recall effort that Warner Mendenhall is selflessly donating his time to launched their website today. They are still building it as it launches, so if you get a "site offline" message, just hit refresh.

From an online tech perspective, they are doing this thing mostly right. The site launch was announced via Facebook message. On launch the site includes a support form that allows users to sign up for emails or texts. There's also the now de riguer feature that allows people to create "accounts" though at this point it's unclear what one would do with an account. (Though to their credit, they haven't tagged it "MyCitizensforAkron.")

And of course lots of info. At this point the site content is tilted toward what a cool guy Plusquellec is and arguments that a recall at this stage is a dumb idea. The tough choice for the organizers will be whether to counter the accusations leveled by the recall folks. The site promises itself to be a work in progress and so will be worth watching.
