Voters in Colorado today will decide an unprecedented effort to recall state senators who backed the toughest gun-control laws in a decade, as firearm advocates look to punish lawmakers who embraced the measures after two of the deadliest mass shootings in U.S. history.
Recall backers and opponents in this gun-friendly state say outside money is turning the race into a battle between the National Rifle Association and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, co-chairman of Mayors Against Illegal Guns. Bloomberg is founder and majority owner of Bloomberg News parent Bloomberg LP.
