Colorado Recall Election Today
It’s being billed as the litmus test of pro and anti gun forces, and today’s first-ever recall elections in Colorado will be underway when the polls open later this morning. At stake in the election are the state senate seats of Senate President John Morse and anti-gun Senator Angela Giron.
Should the duo lose their bids to protect their senate seats, it won’t be due to a lack of funding. More than $3.5 million has poured into both sides of the issue, primarily for the groups supporting the duo, led by contributions from New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
Today’s edition of NRA News Cam & Company will broadcast live from Stargazer Theater in Colorado Springs, Colorado for “frank discussions on what this recall election could mean for gun control, not just in Colorado, but in every state and at the federal level.”
The broadcast of the show will be available at 5-6p.m. ET on Sportsman Channel. Early voting, incidentally, has been underway for as long as a week. Turnout has been described as “comparable to a presidential election”.
