Recall Targets Luna, 2 Boise Solons

A citizens group organized to unseat Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Luna also filed the initial petitions Monday to recall Sen. Mitch Toryanski and Rep. Julie Ellsworth, both Boise Republicans. Secretary of State Ben Ysursa said he expects the deadline for collecting signatures to be June 27, assuming the form of the petitions is approved and the initial signatures are verified. If sufficient signatures are collected, a recall election would be held Aug. 30, Ysursa said. A statewide official has never been successfully recalled/Dan Popkey, Idaho Statesman. More here.

Question: How do you think these recall efforts will play out?
