Recall probably was prac¬ticed in ancient times and certainly in early Amer¬ica, though perhaps more by legislative bodies than by popular vote. The Articles of Confederation, in effect prior to the establishment of the United States Constitution, provided that ". . . delegates [to the Congress] shall be annually appointed in such manner as the legislature of each State shall direct . . . with a power reserved to each State, to recall its delegates or any of them, at any time within the year, and to send others in their stead, for the remainder of the year."
