This is great news. George Rivera is an extremist and he needs to be voted out,
Recall Rivera before he even has a chance to cast a vote.
How many signatures would be needed to get a recall on the ballot?
On another thread, Gray noted that to recall a candidate, "They must be in office 6 mos prior. By the time signatures were gathered and election held the session would be over "
Since the 2014 session starts Jan 2013, Rivera could be in office 6 months , but then you have a 90 day recall signature gathering period, which would put sigs due at the end of September at the earliest, and frankly, I've had it with these wasteful "Let's spend $150 grand of the taxpayer dollars to have a totally unnecessary recall election two months before the regular election".
Just keep calm and have a regular election, people.
Actually, recall proceedings can begin against a member of the general assembly after the fifth day after the organization of the general assembly. [C.R.S. 1-12-102] So January 14. For all other offices it is six months.
But I agree with you–focus on the general election.
Saw that coming. If I lived in Pueblo, I certainly would prefer Garcia to Rivera. I just can't see past the footprints he left on Giron's back.
Leroy Garcia has a mixed record on firearms bills.
As noted, Rep. Garcia voted YES on Universal Background Checks (HB1229). He also voted YES on Defining firearm as deadly weapon (HB1043, now law). He voted YES on the bill to require Domestic Violence Abusers to relinquish guns (SB197 – now law), He voted YES on HB1306 (Mental Health Task Force, which failed in Senate committee). He also voted YES on SB195 to prohibit on-line training for CCW permits. With just a few exceptions, all Republicans voted against all of these.
The NRA gave Garcia a rating of B (before 2012 election). Probably will drop now because of his vote for Background Checks.
Only super strong pro-gun Democrat in the house is Ed Vigil.
I see now where he did vote "Yea" on SB197. That makes me feel better about supporting him. Thanks for your input, doremi.
Not crazy about his views on guns, but people need to remember, that a democrat who is pro-gun is much better than a republican who is pro-gun.
