Recalls of Politicians Who Support Gun Bans
Following Colorado's latest gun legislation bills, which the governor has signed into law, it looks like the recall of politicians who support gun control is beginning.
Basically, a recall is the procedure by which a public official may be removed from office by popular vote. It usually means that the elected official has failed in a big way to represent the people who elected the official and that a sufficient number of the electorate feel the official should not complete their term in office (and be defeated in the next election), but should be recalled as soon as possible by a vote of the electorate in that official's voting district.
Leader of the Colorado Senate, John Morse is one legislator that gun owners are eying for a recall. Read the full story by clicking here. In addition, recalls are planned for State Rep. Mike McLachlan, both are Democrats.
