Colorado Gun-Right Groups begin petitions to recall Senator Evie Hudak

[Joey Skylynx]

[quote][B]COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.,[/B] [I]October 13, 2013 [/I]— If Colorado State Sen. Evie Hudak though she was out of the woods when activists suspended their campaign to recall her in August, she was mistaken. In fact, “suspended” — not “cancelled,” “stopped,” or “failed” — is the right word to describe what the committee decided to do.Late last week, they announced that the effort is restarting.
Spokesman Mike McAlpine said that the Recall Hudak committee decided to suspend their campaign in order to support the Morse and Giron recall efforts.
On Monday October 7, the issue committee “Recall Hudak Too” was registered with the Colorado Secretary of State. The original “Recall Evie Hudak” committee was formed on April 7 and is still active. As of September 19, that committee had raised about $6,600 in cash and a little over $7,000 in non-monetary contributions.
Since reopening the effort last week, McAlpine says their biggest problem has been dealing with the large number of volunteers. The committee has learned from the other recall campaigns and is confident of getting the required number of signatures to force a recall election. The petitions are due January 4th, just the legislature’s 2014 session begins.
Evie Hudak is infamous for her callous treatment of rape victim Amanda Collins during testimony around a proposed gun ban on college campuses. Hudak told her that even had she been allowed to have her concealed carry pistol with her on the night she was attacked, statistics were not on her side. The bill, strongly opposed by students, was eventually withdrawn.
“A small group is seeking to undo the will of voters, who reelected me to the Senate last November. Unable to defeat me then, they are now attempting a political power grab using a low voter turnout, no mail ballot recall election strategy,” Hudak said in a statement to the Denver Post.
It’s a telling statement, drawing on the narrative from the previous two recalls. The “low voter turnout” charge is a red herring as turnout in both counties last month was the same as turnout in equivalent off-cycle elections. Among the bills Democrats passed this year is a massive tax increase called Amendment 66. They hope to pass it in this year’s low voter turnout election.
Hudak, like Morse, was elected by a plurality but not a majority of voters. She also mentions a “no mail ballot recall election strategy.” This is highly misleading because according to the Colorado Constitution, all recall elections are to be in-person elections. At the very end of the session in May, Democrats passed wholesale election restructuring that mandates all mail-in elections, which favor Democrats.

It's called Gerrymandering when anyone does it, and it was actually a "Democratic-Republican" (predecessor to the Democrats) where the name comes from, and politicians of all parties do it.

So anyone want to discuss how atrocious it is that this guys defense was "uh your self defense makes teachers uncomfortable so you probably shouldn't have the right to defend yourself."

I don't really care about guns in Colorado but I am curious as to how mail-in elections favor Democrats over any other political party.

He didn't sound like he was defending the bill. Bringing up the fact that it is nothing more than a useless feel-good measure is hardly going to convince people it's a good idea.

Colorado made some silly gun laws, the people behind these laws are getting recalled because of it.

/everyoneclaps[/QUOTE]He said, "every witness that has come up here tonight, has said they want to feel unintimidated and feel free to debate freely on a college campus. And having you having the right to defend yourself from a violent attacker weighs more for them than for you and the right to self defense; [b]and for that I apologize.[/b]"

He did not say what you said.

What a fat ugly dumb bitch, why are idiots like her in politics.

This disgusts me.

Hudak also spent most of a rape victims testimony texting on her phone instead of paying attention and then launched a condescending lecture about how none of her testimony was relavent and nothing she could've done would've prevented the rape because "statistics weren't on her side." She's just a horrible human being in general.
