Gray Davis
Two: Lynn Frazier of North Dakota was recalled in 1921 during a dispute over state-owned industries, and Gray Davis of California was recalled in 2003 over the state budget and criticisms of his campaigning. Also, there was a successful recall petition against Evan Mecham of Arizona due to his habit of making racially insensitive comments, but he was impeached and dismissed by the legislature for an unrelated offence before the recall took effect.

Impeachment or recall. We recalled our Governor here in California several years ago.
On January 14, 2003, California experienced a unique situation where three individuals served as governor in one day. This occurred when Governor Gray Davis was recalled, Lieutenant Governor Cruz Bustamante assumed the role temporarily, and then Arnold Schwarzenegger was elected and sworn in later that day. This unusual event highlighted the political turmoil surrounding the recall election.
It means a petition is made by voters to dismiss the Governor and hold a new election. This has happened twice: 1921 - Lynn Frazier of North Dakota was recalled in the midst of a dispute over state owned industries 2003 - Gray Davis of California was recalled due to arguments over the budget and criticisms of his campaigning In addition, there was a successful recall petition against Evan Mecham of Arizona due to his habit of making racially insensitive comments and allegations of corruption. However, he was impeached and dismissed by the legislature before the recall came into effect.
