Now that Colorado County Clerks are checking over the number of registered voters, and comparing them with the actual number of Ballots cast on Nov. 6, 2012, so far the following has come to light:
Here in Colorado, 17 Counties had from 104% to 140% of their entire populations (men, women, and children) casting Ballots in the 2012 Presidential Election (!). Excuses by County Clerks have been: “Well, we have a lot of hunters who come to our county to hunt, so they just voted here.” (Uh. . . .as a former Election Deputy, need I remind you that there are “residency restrictions” when it comes to voting in Colorado???) Another County Clerk stated: “We have tourists coming here all the time, so they probably just voted here.” (Again. . . .need I remind you of Colorado’s “residency restrictions” concerning voting in Colorado???) YOU CANNOT LIVE IN ONE COUNTY AND GO VOTE IN ANY OTHER COUNTY THAT YOU WANT!!!

***And now I see they’re having the SAME PROBLEM in Florida-—with 113% of St. Lucie County’s entire population casting Ballots!!! We’ll see how many counties in Florida have the “same problem!”

This infuriates me; I lived in Denver for ten years, I have never missed an election since voting for Ronald Reagan a month after I turned 18.
This election, I spent $30 to overnight my absentee ballot for Romney and Ryan—I sent it a few days before, but wanted to make sure it was counted. Apparently it doesn’t even matter.
I know Denver is liberal when it comes to congressional seats, etc., but I wanted to get Obama out and vote against legalized marijuana.
Oh well. There are still some people who care, and I will never miss an election. I hope someday to be back in that beautiful state, take the kids to the state they were born in to see the elks bugling :) and vote in person.
