Political revenge alleged as reason for State of Iowa voters' ouster last year of three of its state Supreme Court justices

From a Justice at State GavelGrab article, which offers reader commenting-- for details, please read the entire article.
"Given the deadlines that are passing, Iowa legislators won’t be approving a constitutional amendment to define marriage as between one man and woman this year.

And that result, states a Sioux City Journal editorial, shows how little was accomplished by voters’ ouster of three state Supreme Court justices last year over a ruling that permitted same-sex marriage:
'The effort was about exacting political revenge, not about working within the system to affect change. Its sole accomplishment was to establish an ugly precedent for the future by injecting politics into our courts.'"

Remember, "voting turnout and activism means spreading the word!"
