John Perkins Recalled in Independence Data Center Vote

Independence, Missouri, voters recalled Councilman John Perkins due to his vote in favor of tax incentives for a new BSAI data center project. Approximately 68% of voters supported his removal, making it the first time a councilman in Independence has been recalled for a data center-related vote. This decision leaves the First District council seat open and reflects strong local opposition to the project.
