At the same time Gov. Jan Brewer was removing Mathis there was also an equal effort to ask the voters to reconsider using Proposition 106 as a means to draw the lines. Ultimately, the Governor and Legislature would like the voters to repeal Proposition 106 and restore the process to the Legislature. It’s been rumored that the Governor is most likely standing by to call a special session and push for a vote.
Let your representatives know that you do not want this reconsidered.

Let them know that you do not want 106 to be reconsidered and that you want them to vote NO if it is brought to a vote. A YES vote will send a message to the voters that you have no regards for the will of the people.

Sen. Frank Antenori (R-Tucson) said he prefers an idea that some lawmakers have been kicking around to refer Prop. 106 back to the ballot. Sen. Al Melvin (R-Saddlebrooke) agreed, saying the state could hold the special election on Feb. 28, the day of Arizona’s Republican presidential primary.

If they hold the special election on Feb. 28, however, Republicans would have one major factor working in their favor — many Republicans are already planning to come out and in the hotly contested GOP primary, while Democrats, who have no presidential primary to vote in next year, are likelier to stay home.
NOTE: To all the Occupy protests across Arizona: If Governor Brewer calls a special session to assault the AIRC, your protests should all head to Phoenix to Occupy the Capitol. Focus attention on this tyranny.
