In fact, the <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2012/06/05/us/politics/wisconsin-recall-exit-polls.html" rel="nofollow">exit poll</a> shows that only 27% of the voters last night thought that recalls are appropriate for any reason, while 70% said they were either never appropriate or only appropriate for official misconduct.
