Colorado residents go to the polls Tuesday to vote on whether to recall two state senators who supported stricter gun laws in the aftermath of two 2012 mass shootings.

The recall vote effort appears to be the strongest backlash to such state votes -- considering Democratic-leaning Connecticut, Maryland and New York passed similar legislation without resulting in a recall effort getting on a ballot.

Even if money from folks like Bloomberg, it sounds like these two Senators may be headed for defeat.

I certainly hope so.

I've found out, however, that because of new voting laws in Colorado that were sponsored by Morse and Giron, and signed by Hickenlooper, anyone who has lived ANYWHERE in Colorado for the past 22 days, and who "states an intention" to move to district 11 or to district 3, where the recalls are taking place, can vote in the recall election.

More laws passed by democrats that are specifically designed to make voter fraud easier.

I'm crossing my fingers that the vote is not close enough for their cheating to swing the recall.

“Gun Talk” had an interview today with one of the Sheriffs, Terry Maketa, who explains it in good detail.

Terry Maketa has been THE bright spot in this whole Colorado fiasco. He's an awesome man to have as a Sheriff.

Connecticut has no basis for recall. One more thing to fix.
