Recall of Public Officials/Legislators Thread

[Cthulhu]

It is a long shot but I'm willing to try anything at this point.

Well, I think its a recall-able offense.

People...

Please feel free to add email links to specific congress critters. I don't have them all and a couple of them are old ones that are no longer in office

[Dingo]

Hell, I'm in. Just finished cleaning out my inbox of the last round of canned drivel the excreted in response to my letters... may as well let them fill it up again. :-)

They are all directly responsible for Magpul's move out of Colorado and the loss of many many jobs in Colorado. It sits squarely on their shoulders. Something they shouldn't be proud of.

Anyone have a sample email to put in the body of the email?

Dead "Elected" Swine,

You fucked up.

As somebody who has actually showed up at the hearings this week, you need to take a clue. The Republicans are all on the side of the angels on this. They've ALL voted against these bills. NONE of them have sponsored the legislation. You need to direct your fire at the democrats that aren't in Boulder and Denver. A recall isn't a threat, you won't get enough signatures. What will get their attention is that you aren't sitting out the next election, that you're going to give money, walk doors and make calls AGAINST THEM.

It won't be possible to recall them all and if spread too thin we won't be able to recall any. Just like with vampires, go for the leader (chop off the head, whatever) and the rest will get the message. Go for that John whatever guy, do it loud and public and even if it's not sucessful, getting close will send a message. You don't hear much from that moron Walker in Wisconsin since he almost got ousted.

We'd have 60 days to get the signatures and submit them. I think there's also a 6 month from the election deadline, so that puts us at about April for filing new ones. If we try to do the one and see how it's going, then go after any others.

I'm running a similar thread on Arf and someone was nice enough to post election results, including voter totals. The Fields election only had 20,000 voters, so we'd need 5,000 signatures to trigger a recall. Unfortunately, it was almost a 75-25% win for Fields.

I'm putting together a list of questions I plan to approach the Secretary of States office with, but if anyone has any questions or input, please share.

I've noted that even if we get the recall, it doesn't guarantee they won't get reelected, so start thinking of possible candidates to run against these people.

They need to be recalled for even considering it. Fields and 7 other members who sent it through..... Fields would be a great start; she had no clue what was even written.
