I see nothing in the Washington State Constitution granting him that ability. I doubt that any State law has granted him the power to pardon illegal aliens (felons, by their own act of illegally entering this country) under Article III, Section 9

The problem is that the Washington State Supreme Court is completely dominated by liberals. They rule any way they want by leaving any contradictory facts out of their rulings. It is truly despicable, but the State Supreme Court can be counted on to support any part of the liberal agenda or any liberal politician like our law breaking governor.

Whenever any legal voter of the state or of any political subdivision thereof, either individually or on behalf of an organization, desires to demand the recall and discharge of any elective public officer of the state or of such political subdivision, as the case may be, under the provisions of sections 33 and 34 of Article 1 of the Constitution, the voter shall prepare a typewritten charge, reciting that such officer, naming him or her and giving the title of the office, has committed an act or acts of malfeasance, or an act or acts of misfeasance while in office, or has violated the oath of office, or has been guilty of any two or more of the acts specified in the Constitution as grounds for recall. The charge shall state the act or acts complained of in concise language, give a detailed description including the approximate date, location, and nature of each act complained of, be signed by the person or persons making the charge, give their respective post office addresses, and be verified under oath that the person or persons believe the charge or charges to be true and have knowledge of the alleged facts upon which the stated grounds for recall are based.

Grounds for recall:
