starturl.com/plxevI found this link based on an entry in Raging Bull. It is interesting that the process is still confusing when in some states, like Montana and Louisiana it is clear that their members in Congress vote against the will of the people.

This one should be really interesting. I hope the media, especially the "mainstream" variety, cover the case. Supreme Court of New Jersey! I incorrectly said SCOTUS originally.
Should recalls of Congresspersons become legal, many Representatives and Senators might well start feeling the heat.
This is a great opportunity to expand our knowledge of the U.S. Constitution.

You wing-nuts crack me up. You espouse strict adherence to the constitution on one hand. Decrying 'legislating from the bench' when it doesn't suit your purpose. Then championing it on the other when it does.

The guy was elected by a majority in his state. Just because a minor fringe of the Republican party doesn't like him doesn't mean he should be recalled. And, oh, by the way, the only way the Senator can be removed from office is either by not being re-elected or by being impeached. Try reading your constitution.

Did you read the entire thing before engaging your mouth?
