The petitions sat on counters at businesses and volunteers set up tables in public areas.<\/p>\n

On Facebook, people from across Colorado asked where they could sign or how they could get copies of the recall petition to circulate.<\/p>\n

This is a glimpse at what the first weekend looked like in the effort to recall Democratic Gov. Jared Polis. In three counties, the people eager to sign the petitions said they were motivated by complaints about new oil and gas regulations, red flag gun laws and the national popular vote compact<\/a>. <\/p>\n
