Anybody know what other states have a Recall option?
There are lots of unpopular goverors out there besides Davis. I'm feeling a bit revengful right now if Davis is ousted and Arnold is installed in office. I wonder if some states like Ohio, Massachusetts, Connecticut or even Florida have this ballot option. I would love to see it used against a GOP Governor.

Anyone know?

in Wisconsin will be the next democratic governer that the ethicless and moraless Republicans and Conservatives will try to recall.

3. Heard that too, Homer12
Heck, it might even have been you who told me. I heard, though, that Wisconsin has a restriction that recall petitions for governor cannot be filed in the first year. I'm beginning to think that the repugs are trying to set up the property tax freeze issue as #1 strike against Doyle on a recall agenda.
