In addition, there are different risks according to the different forms of recall (national examples show that there are great differences, between the States who know recall, in the conditions and proceedings related to this instrument). For example, a recall in its pure form (new election before time by the same constituency) initiated by an important number of electors and managed in respect of the conditions for a democratic election process presents different risks than those forms where the recall of a mayor may be initiated not by the electors, but by the local council. Also, as mentioned before, where allowed, the application of the recall instrument to individual local councils’ members, despite the clear difference of statute between those individual councillors and the local mayors, is particularly problematic.
