Third Colorado lawmaker facing a recall election resigns "effective immediately."

Colorado Lawmaker Abruptly Resigns

From the story:

"It’s believed the Democratic senator based her decision to step down on the likelihood she would lose a recall election over her support for Colorado’s strict new gun control laws. A recall election loss would result in Republicans gaining control of the state senate."

Oops....

Mods,

Her resignation, before a recall could be filed, ensures that the governor will appoint a replacement like-minded Democrat who will not be subject to recall but will have to face a fairly quick re-election race.
