DescriptionA group of Republicans on Wednesday initiated a recall against Colorado state Sen. Kevin Priola, two days after the Henderson lawmaker announced he was leaving the GOP to become a Democrat.

The recall effort, backed by a deep-pocketed conservative nonprofit, kicks off a flurry of legal questions, namely whether the recall will be focused on Priola’s current state Senate district or the one he will begin representing in January. Priola was drawn into a much more Republican district during last year’s once-in-a-decade redistricting process.

The Colorado Secretary of State’s Office was investigating this week, with the help of the Colorado Attorney General’s Office, how the recall will play out. It’s possible the situation could end up before a judge.
