This movement was less than successful because in the United States recall elections are currently prohibited in the federal system. The majority of states allow recall elections in local jurisdictions, but only 18 states permit recall elections to remove statewide officers (as of 2006}

Currently prohibited in the federal system.....where a change to the 2nd Amendment would have to occur.
