(Reuters) - A citizens' group that opposes the Arizona senate president because of his stance on illegal immigration and other issues has collected enough signatures to force a recall election for him, officials said on Friday.

Republican state Senator Russell Pearce rose to national attention as the chief architect of the state's tough anti-immigration law that was signed into law last year, but has been blocked by the courts.

Maricopa County elections officials certified the group Citizens for a Better Arizona has collected over 10,300 signatures in their effort to force a recall election for Pearce, said Yvonne Reed, a county elections spokeswoman.

The group only was required to collect 7,756 valid signatures under state law, Reed said.

And just what happens if he is not recalled? Are these jerks going to pay the election costs?

I’ll send the guy $25. He’s a poster child for the rule of law.

There is zero chance he will lose the recall election. This is just targeted punishment by the rats.

Correct. The law still stands regardless of what these POS illegals and their libtard handlers could muster. If they think this is payback time, they’re in for a rude awakening.

Citizens for a Better Arizona wants Arizona to become another Mexico. They are a bunch of commie ***holes. Pearce isn’t going anywhere.

Hard to believe they only need 8,000 signatures for a recall. Why not petition to recall every Demovik that ever wins down there?

Looks like Wisconsin and Alaska-like tactics are spreading...break the states and elected reps through Lawfare and “using the system to break the system”.

Liberals and normal people really cannot coexsist. One or the other has to go.

Phoenix is the number 1 city in America for kidnapping. They just found 21 illegal immigrants in a drop house in Phoenix , MS 13 gang member arrested was implicated in at least three homicides, a human smuggler from Mexican 13 men, six women, two juveniles discovered at drop house. http://www.kpho.com/story/15048929/suspected-gang-member-nabbed-at-drop-house
Arizona mirrors Mexico more and more everyday and they want to relax the laws for illegals. The start of the civil war may very well begin in Arizona, at some point the bubble with brust and all hell will break out.
