Both recalled Dem Senators were soundly defeated as was a tax increase the Bloomie supported to the tune of $1 million.
In Colorado Springs voters ousted Sen. John Morse, the Democratic head of the Senate, over gun control legislation he supported and introduced during the 2013 legislative session. Bloomberg also supported Morse in his campaign to keep his seat.

In Pueblo, which defeated Amendment 66 by almost 69 percent, Sen. Angela Giron was ousted from office at the same time.

El Paso County voters defeated the measure with 73 percent of the vote.

If enough people are nudged into waking up by Obamacare, we could be in for a repeat of 2010 in 2014. :anamatedbanana

Interestingly poor writing in that article.
The recall elections took place in early September and the Republican replacements were sworn in later that month.
The article makes it sound like the recall and Prop 66 both took place this week.

It's good news for Colorado and a promising turn of the political winds for 2014.
