Our office is the filing officer for countywide petitions, as well as County, school board and special district elected official recalls. Although we provide information on state and local petitions, contact the filing officer for the appropriate jurisdiction based on the type of petition.

The right of petition was enumerated in the Declaration of Independence (July 4, 1776). Prior to this the citizens' repeated petitions to the King of England had been ignored. Later, the declarations of rights of the newly formed states of Pennsylvania (1776), North Carolina (1776), Massachusetts (1790), and New Hampshire (1784) included guarantees for peaceable assembly and petition. The Delaware Declaration of Rights (1776) and Maryland's Declaration of Rights (1776) expressly protected the right of petition.
