If I'm not wrong, LeBron can't be a candidate.
There will be two questions: one on the recall of the Governor (Yes or No or Abstain) and another question on who should become Governor in his place (and LeBron can't be a candidate).


That's technically the case but in practice it probably won't be much different to an actual election.

The real question here is why the process isn't simply to require a higher signature threshold for the recall petition and, once that is achieved, proceed to a recall election. As is, there seems to be a three-step process

1. Petition for recall, achieve signature threshold
2. Vote on recall question,
3. (Simulatenously) vote in recall election

It would be interesting if FitzGerald was to run as a candidate to replace himself and got less votes than GAWorth but the recall question failed. It would be pretty crippling to any claim of a mandate, but legal.
