Latest Colorado Recall Gets Nasty

Colorado voters are mobilizing for the signature-gathering phase of another recall election, and Democratic interests groups are getting quite dirty and nasty with their tactics to keep from losing additional seats. The Democrats backing Evie Hudak are taking to scare tactics by “warning” voters that people asking for their signatures on recall petitions may be sex offenders or criminals coming to the homes. The organization listed on the warnings say that attacks and fake warnings are justified in order to keep the Democrats in power.

The door hanger warnings came back in October, but they have stepped it up this month with an official-sounding robocall telling voters that if they sign the petition, they are releasing their personal information to possible criminals. The media has picked up on these stories when worried voters called them asking to know why the police aren’t doing something about these supposed criminals going door-to-door.

According to a grassroots report out of Colorado, several signature gatherers for the recall were told by a supporter that he would be going home to get a gun to shoot them.

  1. ““warning” voters that people asking for their signatures on recall petitions may be sex offenders or criminals. . .”

    They didn’t originate that tactic. I knew of it being used against minor party ballot signature petitioners, almost thirty years ago. And I won’t say which major party used that tactic then, because we all know that “dime’s worth of difference” quote.

  2. “…several signature gatherers for the recall were told by a supporter that he would be going home to get a gun to shoot them.”

    Well, isn’t he lucky Evie Hudak voted for his right to legally bear whatever arms he deemed necessary to go about his business.

    Oh, wait….

  3. And these same people will sign up for Obamacare where actual criminals will be looking at their information

    1. Sure. Because the foot soldiers of the pro-Hudak campaign are the same union goons who are the foot soldiers of Obamacancelya.

      Everybody here probably remembers, but Jabba the Hudak is the legislator who used her platform to abuse and demean a pro-gun rape victim during a hearing. My grandmother used to say hate would make you ugly; she must have been thinking of Hudak.

  4. The irony is the Democrats are trying to make it illegal to run criminal background checks on job applicants.

  5. I find this line interesting. It is OK then if “we” lie to you, but it is bad if “they” lie to you.

    1. It dropped the line I was referring to. “The organization listed on the warnings say that attacks and fake warnings are justified in order to keep the Democrats in power.”

  6. Democrats, all against voter disenfranchisement – unless it’s for Republicans. Then scare tactics, intimidation, etc is all good.
