U.S. Constitution trumps the state. There has never been a provision for recall of federal officials.

nope, otherwise all state and local gun laws would be null and void due to the second amendment, which says NO infringement.

the constitution also is now silent on alcohol, yet some areas are dry and some are not, at the local level.

states are allowed to define all laws for their elections and electors.

There’s also nothing in there that says a state cannot recall. It’s the state’s business as long as they do provide a Senator to represent them. What isn’t enumerated in the constitution is reserved for the states. This is federalism. I’m surprised there are people so willing to be subjects of the leviathan.

That's my understanding.
