"I have never been a fan of recalls (of lawmakers) on either side of the aisle - especially for a vote," said [Republican state Assembly leader Jeff] Fitzgerald, referring to how single votes - such as passing legislation that strips public employees of most of their bargaining rights - can trigger recall efforts.(...) When asked whether he would support recall-changing legislation this fall, Fitzgerald said: "I think it's definitely something that we would look at and see if there is support from both sides of the aisle."

Friggin' public and their friggin' Constitutional rights to hold elected officials accountable for stuff those officials do in office:

It's a real travesty that the public occasionally exercises their right to hold special elections when lawmakers do unpopular stuff.

Grrr.
