Unfortunately, the only way she can be removed is by impeachment.
She couldn't simply resign? Hell, even Nixon was allowed to resign before full blown impeachment could take him down.

Of course but she won't.

If doing her job makes her violate her religious beliefs, then by all means quit.
That's what I don't understand. Separation of church and state. If she knew this was going to conflict with her beliefs, why wouldn't she resign? I wouldn't volunteer ("run") for a position if the duties were against what I stood for...

Then she should be fired or held in contempt

KY Legislature doesn't meet until January, so unless she was going to resign, this would have carried on for a long time.

Im sure she can, but if her conscience let her go to jail, no way her conscience will let her resign.

She refuses to resign.
Judge also called in her six clerks. Only one said no to issuing MLs to all. The judge called for her to return to court and said if Davis would agree not to interfere w/ the other five clerks signing the MLs, he would drop the contempt charge and free her.
She's still in jail tonight, so I guess Davis refused that compromise.
