This recall campaign is a lot more organized than the last one. Their office is only about a 5 minute walk from my house, and they've been pretty busy up there. They've also been quite visible in the community with petition tables set up at a lot of major intersections where people can stop and sign.
Personally, I think the biggest hurdle for THIS recall effort is the fact that many people who signed the recall petition last time are completely unaware of the fact that they MUST sign again this time around. That could seriously hurt the effort to gather enough signatures to force an election. I've spoken personally with the new organizer (Mike McAlpine) about this concern, and he agreed that it is a problem that they're trying to address at the moment. So, if any of you know anyone in District 19 out here, please be sure that they are aware of the fact that they MUST sign this new petition if they want their signature to count.
Also, if you are in the area, they are taking voluntary donations for yard signs at the recall headquarters near 64th and Simms here in Arvada. I picked up a yard sign yesterday, and I'm proudly displaying it in hopes of letting people know that this is a legitimate campaign... In case you haven't heard, the anti-recall groups have been distributing door hangers that are warning people to not sign the petition, and giving a totally false impression that those of us who are circulating the petition are trying to steal people's identity, defraud them, and that we may be "criminals" or "sexual predators". It is despicable conduct on their part, and only makes me all the more motivated to bring down the wicked witch of Arvada.

Run some radio and newspaper ads. Also do you have any local gun forums (most all places do)? How about clubs and such? They have newsletters and email. I say use all those outlets to get the word out.
Despicable lying by Democrats? Never.

Was just wondering about this myself.

The most recent information I've received is that we are currently on-par with signatures, given the amount of time that has elapsed so far. Obviously that means that we're in a good position to make this recall election happen, BUT we don't have it in the bank just yet. It's very important to get as many signatures as we can in the remaining few weeks (just under three weeks) to make sure that we have enough validated signatures to make this happen.
So, if you know anyone who lives in the Colorado district 19 area, please contact them and encourage them to sign. Also, if you live nearby and aren't in the district, your help would still be welcomed and appreciated by everyone involved (a lot of the volunteers live elsewhere in the metro area). Finally, if you aren't close, but still want to help, please consider making a donation to the effort!
This is the main website for the recall effort, and there is also a Facebook page that has been set up by the organizer:

Here's a news interview with Senator Hudak that just came out. As far as I know this is the first interview she's been featured in since the recall process started:
http://denver.cbslocal.com/2013/11/13/under-fire-state-sen-evie-hudak-answers-critics-on-cbs4/
Lets hope she finds herself in an unemployment line sooner rather than later!

You guys should be up and canvasing now.
If I get 2 or more guys post today from her district TODAY up and getting sigs, I will donate even MORE money.
EDIT: Wow - watched the video. Not sure how anyone could like her. At all. And you know, your TV news right there did not look so biased like ours is.

Oh, she has her supporters. Some of them wave their signs standing a few feet away from those trying to collect recall signatures.

Yes, but REALLY she just doesn't want to discourage those who are taking those actions on her behalf. She's a POS politician. It may also be that she authorized or orchestrated those crappy actions. It really doesn't matter because she's a POS!!
Let's stay focused on the recall effort and not get into rants bashing Hudak.
The interview makes it clear she's not presenting well to the voting public and that she's rattled about her chances of retaining office. That lack of confidence, the cranky presentation, the lack of ethical center to condemn supporters lying to the public all harm her. The interview actually seems to help the recall effort and should be used to encourage people to replace her.

Is there a latest estimate of how many signatures so far?
Hopefully it is being pointed out in flyers, TV advertisements, etc. how Hudak takes the position women are incompetent or incapable of using a firearm to protect themselves from rape. But she doesn't offer any practical alternatives.
I would think that many women might be offended by this patronizing attitude even if they don't hold particularly strong views about firearms.

You go guys and gals in Hudaks district! Keep the pressure on. If I lived in her district I'd be pounding the pavement with you. Since I live on the western slope and have to make a living all I can do is send a small financial donation and moral support from afar.
Remember remember the 10th of September!

The great irony of this whole thing is that Hudak has probably done more to mobilize gun-rights efforts here in Arvada than anyone else. I think we're going to vote her off of that pedestal very soon, and it seems like the recall effort has been gaining strength in the past couple of weeks.
I've been displaying a RECALL HUDAK yard sign for a while now, and within the past week or two I've seen at least three more signs pop up in my neighborhood. I think Hudak's scare tactics will start to lose credibility as reasonable people begin to realize that this is a legitimate recall effort.
Obviously I think it's still important to keep the pressure on until we reach the finish line, but I'm feeling better and better about this effort as each day passes (again, I have no official numbers from which to base this feeling). If you have the means and desire, a small donation to the cause would probably be greatly appreciated by all involved. Also, if you're in/near this area, swing by the Recall Hudak office to see where you can help out!
As a bonus point, this whole gun control debacle finally motivated my girlfriend to get her CCW permit. She's already been through a police academy, so she had the requisite training completed, she just needed that extra little push to get her in to the county office to pay the fee and get the actual permit. Hudak's mindless anti-gun policies get more people to carry guns, and I just love that!
