Recall organizers do get a “participation” prize for their political ineptitude and strategic stupidity.
They can’t complain since they sold whatever souls they had to Trumpism & MAGAism a long time ago.
Signature deadline of the ending day of the general election.
That means Sec. of State employees will be validating signatures in the midst of trying to wrap up the reporting of outcomes. They will need to finish that within 30 days, if I remember right, just after the end of the period for setting up recounts needed by state law or requested by candidates at their expense.
Gov. Polis will need to announce a recall election date "not less than thirty nor more than sixty days" after the declaration that there are sufficient signatures — or sometime between mid-January to mid-February. There would be a certain irony to call the election to end Tuesday, February 14, 2023, if that falls within the 60-day outer limit.
Even if Valentine's Day comes after the election, there would need to be campaigning while the legislature begins its new session and the start of new terms for executive branch offices. During Hanukkah, Christmas, New Years's Day, collegiate football championship games, pro-football play-offs leading to the Super Bowl, and the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday,
The Gov. has to wait until the protest period has passed, and any protest that comes is adjudicated before he sets the recall election.
If the sufficient/insufficient determination is challenged it could add a month or more to the time-line.
and the organizers don't have to wait to submit signatures to the end of the period and the Secretary of State doesn't have to take the whole amount of time to determine adequacy. So it could happen sooner.
I don't really think it will get that far, for one reason or another.
I am doubtful they will get the signatures.
Election Day deadline is perfect. Scamsters can hustle the magat yokels , thereby diverting cash from actual Republican campaigns. They then buy necessary equipment like new BMWs to, uhh, deliver leaflets. On election day they turn in a couple hundred signatures and move on to the next scam.
