I'm sure you remember that two of our prominent members of the Colorado State Senate were booted out of office because of their stance on "gun control."  These were the State Senate President, John Morse, and Senator Angela Giron (pr: Hih-ROAN).  It did, after all, make national headlines.

When the recall effort against those two started, State Senator Evie Hudak was also considered for a recall effort, but that was dropped for logistical reasons.

But with the successful recall of the other Senators mentioned, a new recall effort against her has started.

This one's right in my regular stomping grounds and you can bet I'll stop by the Recall Hudak office tomorrow to contribute and see what I can help out with.

Let's see.  Gotta get to the Post Office, then over to Walgreen's for an Rx, then up Wadsworth Boulevard and Ralston Road to the Recall Hudak headquarters (don't forget your checkbook), then back down Ward Road to the supermarket, then home.

Yep, that ought to do it for the morning.

Edited to correct spelling.

This bitch is worthy of a recall. I remember she told a rape victim that was in favor of women carrying concealed guns that "statistics weren't on her side." She's another vile Colorado progressive piece of filth that needs to get eaten by a Rocky Mountain puma.

Yeah. Was she the one that suggested rather than carry a firearm the rape victim try vomiting and urinating on her rapist and tell them she has std's.....that the same genius?  I forget....

Yup shes the idiot. How do these idiots get elected? By other idiots!

Yeah. Was she the one that suggested rather than carry a firearm the rape victim try vomiting and urinating on her rapist and tell them she has std's.....that the same genius?  I forget....

She told the rape victim that having a gun would not have protected her.  The rapist is more likely to take it from her and kill her with it.  The implication was basically, you're lucky you didn't have a gun ... that's why you were ONLY raped.

I hate to say it but, I wish someone would rape her daughter.  Maybe then the light bulb in her head would flicker and flicker and finally come on.

As one could see, I love irony. 

Well, even if this one fails (but it's lookin' good so far), we're still batting .667 .

Ought to give politicians everywhere pause before they vote to infringe on a fundamental civil right again.

I am going to have to make a mental note to remember this If I ever become a hostage in a bank robbery or car jacked.

... Maybe i could poop in my hand and smear it everywhere or something too that might also work

According to this comedian, that's sort of how monkeys do it.

The real beauty of a successful recall here is that it will take control of the Colorado Senate away from the Democratic Machine.

Is there anything we can do besides moral support???
I would love to see this plan come together.

Offhand, I don't know what restrictions, if any, there are on out-of state individual contributions.  I did note that when they took my donation the other day, they were extremely careful to put it in a separate envelope with my name and address on it.  I asked the charming lady at the desk why and she said they had to be very careful in documenting the source of the contribution because they expected challenges based on the campaign contribution laws.

EDITED TO ADD:

HOW TO DONATE:

I got ahold of them directly to get "horse's mouth" information.

0.  Out-of-state donations are OK.

1.  Their preferred method is through their website at

http://www.recallhudaktoo.org/

There is a donation option under the "Contact" tab on the opening banner right under the flag and Capitol dome image.

2.  I am not on Facebook, but they said there is a way to do this on their FB page.

3.  Personal checks may be mailed to them at

Recall Hudak Too
11651 West 64th Ave, Suite E1
Arvada, CO 80004

However, you should include the following information with your check.

Name
Address
Phone Number
Occupation
Employer

This folderol is necessary because they expect to be tightly audited under the campaign finance laws, and they want to make sure all the Ts are dotted and the Is are crossed.

I see that the Governor of CO. has called on Bloomberg and Co. to back off in this latest recall.
What I got was that except for the NRA the folks in CO don't react well to  "outside influence" (Brietbart)
Outatowners so to speak. You don't suppose they are running scared?

Terry, what's the read??? I'll send em something per your post on donations.

Oh, yeah, Bloomberg will "back off" in a pig's eye.  He'll possibly just donate a little bit here and a little bit there to some straw man humanitarian and "anti-violence"orgs and they'll in turn "support" the local orgs, who will in turn support Hudak... presuming the petition effort is successful.  I suppose there are "campaign finance loopholes" just as there are loopholes (unintended omissions) in any law.

They seem to be pretty well organized and thet seem to be really concerned about hitting all the legal nails on the head. 

The store front location seemed to be pretty busy last week, although a lot of time is taken up with people who bitch about other things the .gov is doing.  It was funny to watch the other folks standing around waiting to be served, listening and nodding in agreement with the bitchor of the moment. 

The enthusiasm was pretty evident, but I hope this does not result in overconfidence which might lead to a slackoff of participation.

I haven't been down there since last week, so I don't know how the petition-signing and volunteer sign-up went at the Tanner Gun Show this past weekend, but they have a Facebook page (and other social media outlets) which can probably tell you more.  I'm not that "wired" myself and I'm not on Facebook, so I can't tell you more than that.  I'll probably get a chance to stop by later this week.

Terry

oh, i'd bet the petition signing at the gun show went well
good luck to the colorado effort, i hope this one is as successful as the last

Whats the latest?

Haven't been down there to their offices lately, been BZ with some family stuff and haven't been too mobile of late.  Recommend you check out their Facebook page.  (I'm not on FB myself.)

I'm feeling a little guilty about that since this is a matter of great importance, so maybe to assuage my guilt I'll drop by another donation tomorrow --temperatures are going to be in the upper 50s with no wind.

Last I heard, they were "on track" with the petition signature-obtaining rate, but I really want to check out whether they're zeroing in on the registered Libertarian voters up there, who, it is generally agreed, drew enough votes away from Hudak's opponent in the last election to let her win.  This will allow them to "correct" the results of their voting . 

Please note that I'm not against anyone "voting their concience" for a minor "third party" candidate, but in this case, as in some other elections, it apparently drew just enough votes away from a more realistic choice to allow a hyper-leftist to walk away a winner.

A couple of interesting points:

(1) I posted similar threads on several oher gun boards, but on The High Road, in a thread started by someone else, the moderators seemed to get on board with it and are encouraging support for the recall effort:

http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=730865

One of the major players in the recall effort has taken part in that discussion (thread) and has contributed significant and informative  comments.  In some cases on other boards, I get tempted to "bump" the threads, but I'm reluctant to become a pain in the neck by bumping too often.

(2) On a slightly related topic, it would appear that a "rebellion" against the hyper-leftist domination of urban areas in Colorado politics is gaining ground.  In 11 of the rural counties which put a "secession from the State of Colorado" measures or referendums  on their county ballots, 5 of them passed it --that is, 45%.

Samples from before the actual election:

http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2013/11/05/colorado-s-strange-secession-vote.html

http://rt.com/usa/north-colorado-secession-vote-271/

Now we know that an actual secession is a near impossibility for many reasons, besides legal ones, but this 45% of counties vote is very significant in advising the hyper-leftists in the urban areas to watch their steps, lest they get manure on their shoes.

That's that for now,
