Hickenlooper Wants Gun Control Groups to Stay Away

Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper (D) “suggests national gun-control groups stay away from a looming recall battle that could switch control of the state Senate to the GOP. The groups poured money into an unsuccessful defense of two state lawmakers recalled over their gun votes earlier this year,” USA Today reports.

Said Hickenlooper: “Colorado is a state that people like to be themselves and solve their own problems. They don’t really like outside organizations meddling in their affairs, and maybe the NRA gets a pass on that.”
