Updating a previous post on recall elections.

Good news, bad news. The good news is the twit occupying House District 50 seat has resigned!

Bad news? She did it before I got around to signing the recall petition.
Hmmm. A (P)regressive latina, self proclaimed lesbian, resigns after an allegedly sexual assault.
Must be a National Enquirer type story there, just saying. Inquiring minds want all the salacious details!
In Colorado, since she is a Democrat, the county Democrat Party will select a replacement. That may prove to be "interesting".
Now open in donated office space in our little burg is an "Official Recall Polis" office. I will be visiting that operation this week. Perhaps become a volunteer?
Statewide the recall effort is spreading. In Pueblo, where in 2013 the voters forced a recall on a Senator, they are going after their current Senator.
Hitting 'publish' on this post will give me the warm and fuzzies. YMMV

I was quite surprised to read she quit, but then there may be some real nastiness in her personal life she never expected to come out.
Keep plugging away!

Speculation is the party bigwigs forced her to resign. This way they keep the seat and their supermajority intact. They are afraid of a recall.

Always.
Always glad to see that even though our votes don't actually count, banding together to toss some of the shit overboard seems to work.

We can only try.
She probably had sex with a man... a no-no in the LGBTQ world. One must stay true to there sexual identity. No crossing lines unless you are transgender, which is gay in my book.
Ahhhh....didn't know "how it worked" out here.

Sooo cynical.

Who knows.
One down and how many to go?

Too many, but a start is a start.
