Hickenloopers does not believe signing will cost him reelection.

I can't wait to vote all the bums out. They keep saying they are not going to take our guns.!!??! Well at least not yet. They have to register them first and find out where they all are which is what they are doing now. The liberals (and I include anyone from any party who is in favor of violating our 2A rights) are following the blueprints of previous tyrants and are selling their hogwash to the sheeple of this state and country who refuse to think on their own.

I can't believe how many of you supported this guy. I knew he was a piece of shit when he emerged, a buddy of Ritter is no friend of mine. You guys got taken believing liberal lies.
im glad you at least now see the light, but it is costing us dearly.

No D received a vote much less a thought, outside of tar & feather.

Wreave, You and others who voted for H, well this last 2 months have shown how good a person you chose. Then again anyone who voted for Mr. middle of the Road fell hook , line & sinker for the complete pile of shit.

He will get re-elected, look at the CO majority. Pickle puffers, pot heads, and southern immigrant's make up the majority and none of them will vote R. All these shit bags will get re-elected because the victims feel safer now. All the sheriffs that opposed this will have to fight to keep their jobs. CO is headed down the toilet quick.

I didn't vote for him, though at the time and for most of the last year I thought he was the right guy. I voted Republican because I was afraid that if we didn't get 10% of the vote, we'd be relegated to minority party status due to how the state handles that. We almost did, as you'll recall, and barely beat the 10% threshold. I'd venture there are a lot more people here who voted for Tancredo.

You may also recall that Tancredo + Maes got less than Hickenlooper. But again, I didn't vote for him - though I thought he would be a better governor than Tancredo or Maes.

For the record, I have *never* voted for a Democrat at any level.

I think we would technically want to begin by petitioning a veto referendum, which requires the same number of signatures and would call a popular vote on each bill. They would have to be done individually, 86K signatures per bill, but there's no reason they can't be collected simultaneously. There's also no reason not to simultaneously collect signatures for a ballot initiative, or numerous initiatives as long as a separate signature were collected for each bill's referendum and each initiative. I'd wager that anyone willing to sign 7 petitions and a host of initiatives would also be willing to sign a few more times for a few recalls like CoGunNut suggested.

I don't know if it's allowed but if anyone else does: Could a single signature be used to petition for multiple referendums/initiatives/recalls (defined in the petition) -- in order to streamline the signing process, since our representatives were so kind as to assault us with high capacity legislation with one purpose and one purpose only, to trample the liberty of as many people as possible as fast as possible?

Three words: Colorado Ballot Initiative

Initiatives (also referred to simply as Amendments) are amendments to the state statutes or to the state constitution proposed via petition by citizens, and must be signed by a number of registered voters equal to at least 5% of the total number of votes cast for all candidates for the office of secretary of state at the previous general election. Upon acceptance, the initiative is voted upon during the next statewide general election.[1] Amendments are designated by number. The number assigned to a measure when petitions are circulating is generally different from the number ultimately assigned to an initiative when it is placed upon the ballot.

There is no difference in Colorado, as of July 16, 2008, between the requirements for placing a statutory change, and a state constitutional change on the ballot, or approving such a change. Colorado Referendum O facing voters in November 2008 would change these requirements by requiring more support at the petition stage to amend the state constitution than to amend a state statute.

According to the Secretary of State's website, a total of 1,722,096 votes were cast for Secretary of State in 2010. To get an initiative on the ballot to repeal each of these bills if they were to become law, would require at least 5% of the total SoS vote, which is 86,105 signatures. If the pot heads could do it...

wreave, that letter is pretty damn good. I didn't support him but it brings to light how those that did were let down. If you don't mind, i'm going to pass this along to some of my family members that supported him because i think it's a well written letter...hell i think everyone on this forum should copy and past it to his FB page just for shits and giggles.

I can't understand how anybody that owns a firearm could support Hickenlooper but I'm glad you're coming around.
