Architect of Arizona’s Immigration Law Defeated Yesterday

One of the races I was particularly interested in following yesterday was the potential recall of Russell Pearce, the Arizona state senator who drafted Arizona’s draconian immigration law. One could view Pearce’s recall as a rejection of the immigration law itself and, in fact, fyi, Pearce was recalled:
State Sen. Russell Pearce, the controversial architect of Arizona’s immigration law, was voted out of office on Tuesday evening in a special recall election. He was defeated by Jerry Lewis, a fellow Republican who does not support the immigration crackdown and has vowed to reject gifts from special interest groups and work to ban gifts for legislators.
Cool.
