Goosey 3,017 Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 I don't understand why she didn't just quit and find another job where you aren't required to issue gay marriage certificates. Her explanation seems a bit weak: “If I resign I lose my voice,” Davis said. “Why should I have to quit a job that I love, that I’m good at?” Apparently they can't fire her "I am the world's greatest person that does not want to let people into the country."—US President Donald J.

"Even when Davis is in jail, she's still the clerk. She hasn't been fired, and she hasn't resigned. Getting rid of a county clerk isn't easy. Davis is an elected official, so she would have to be impeached by the state legislature. Not even the governor could fire Davis on his own. "The legislature has placed the authority to issue marriage licenses squarely on county clerks by statute, and I have no legal authority to relieve her of her statutory duty by executive order or to remove her from office," Governor Steve Beshear explained. "I see no need to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars of taxpayers’ money calling a special session of the General Assembly when 117 of 120 county clerks are doing their jobs." Even if a special session were called, the assembly may not agree to impeach her." "I am the world's greatest person that does not want to let people into the country."—US President Donald J.
