Cal. Elec. Code § 11381 — Recall Elections is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.

The Secretary of State shall certify the names of the candidates to be placed on the ballot by the 55th day prior to the election.
(b) No person whose recall is being sought may be a candidate to succeed himself or herself at a recall election.
