COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - State Senate President John Morse and Senator Angela Giron were both removed from office Tuesday by voters upset with their stance on gun control.

Unofficial final results updated by the El Paso County Clerk at 10:02 p.m. showed 50.96 percent of voters wanted Morse to be recalled.

"The highest rank in a democracy is citizen, not senate president," he said at the conclusion of his concession speech, in which he promised to continue his work.

Giron, who was winning in the first preliminary data, has also lost. Unofficial results show 56 percent of voters in favor of recalling her. As of 10:30 p.m., 34,556 votes had been counted.

Giron spoke to a crowd in her headquarters at 10:45 p.m., but didn't explicitly concede.

"I'm a little perplexed, but this is what I know: I know that I have not one iota of regret from what I voted on," she said.

This reminds me of when Washington state ousted sitting Speaker of the House Tom Foley.

Your lack of regret is noted, demon.

“I know that I have not one iota of regret from what I voted on,”

I have to kind of admire a woman who can correctly use the term “iota” while showing blowing a simple sentence structure.

Good news. We really need to do this more often. There is no reason these should be lifetime gigs for any elected official.

This is extremely encouraging and is going to send a message far and wide.

Memo to the Nazicrats. Trying to out tough the other states to have the “toughest gun control laws” in the country can be hazardous to your two bit, political career.

Gotta call my niece outside Colorado Springs to see if there are any nice homes in the area for sale. Between Dragonman’s Shooting Range and the sanity of the populace to dump a gun-grabbing, clueless politician, I might even be able to deal with the cold and snow out there...

****”I’m a little perplexed, but this is what I know: I know that I have not one iota of regret from what I voted on,” she said.”****

Well, well, this appears to be a case where the “Latina Female” was not very wise.
