Bravo!!! Bravo!!!

Yeah, I read of college kids turning in ballots ten at a time. It was a close run thing. Besides, Morse's district encompassed some of the least conservative neighborhoods in the area (Manitou Springs, across the south side of town and the hood).

Glad it has been done.

Now wondering how many other politicians will actually take notice.

I say, that's the difference between "I quit" and "You're fired."
This right here! It sends a clear message that what they did was unacceptable.

Major props given to those who led the recall efforts. It was truly grassroots. Hell, some in the GOP didn't want to get dirty by supporting it.

I contributed $50 to the recall campaign, and I seriously DOUBT I'm the only one who did so from out-of-state. Now they need to get those laws limiting magazines to 15 rounds rescinded. After the recall, Chickenpooper has softened his stance on gun control - which is a DAMNED GOOD THING!!!
POLITICIANS & DIAPERS NEED TO BE CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME REASON

A person properly schooled in right and wrong is safe with any weapon. A person with no idea of good and evil is unsafe with a knitting needle, or the cap from a ballpoint pen.

I remain pessimistic given the way BATF and the anti gun crowd have become tape worms in the guts of the Republic. - toad

America, Fuck Yeah!
There must be an end to this intimidation by those who come to this great country, but reject its culture.

Giron's a blithering idiot. Blame's her lose on "voter suppresion". Apparently "her" voters couldn't figure out how to vote by mail......or any other method. So, she was supported by constituents too stupid to vote......or too lazy.

CNN's Brooke Baldwin shuts her down in an interview. LINK

Voter suppression??? Hell, Pueblo had a higher turnout than did Colorado Springs. Giron lost by a much bigger margin and a bigger percentage than did Morse, and Pueblo is a heavily Democrat town. Haw haw haw.
