Democratic bill to change Colorado voting rules has Republicans ‘livid’
The Daily Caller ^ | 04/10/2013 5:12 PM | none stated

Posted on 04/18/2013 8:01:27 PM PDT by Texas Fossil

The latest partisan slugfest to take place in the Democratic-held Colorado legislature is shaping up to be about election reform, with Democrats preparing to introduce a bill mandating that every registered voter be allowed to cast a ballot by mail and allowing new voters to register through Election Day.

After a brief lull in partisan bickering that has dominated the legislative session — mostly over gun control — battle lines are again being drawn, with Republicans described by the Durango Herald as “livid” over the proposed legislation.

Republican Secretary of State Scott Gessler — who sued two Democratic-majority counties before the last election to prevent them from mailing ballots to inactive voters — told a reporter for the Denver Post that he was in “full honey badger mode,” referencing the nickname he earned for his willingness to stand his ground and fight.

Why don’t they make everybody vote by mail. Someone tries to vote twice, they get in big, proveable doo doo now.

The CO GOP though more numerous is about as inept as the MA or CT GOPs.

OK, I will try to spend a little time this weekend on it.

Don’t think it will take that long.

How would you like the table? By Party by District? Alphabetic by last name? Numerically by District?

I can do it however you like. Will sort initially by party by district which will allow easy entry of the vote, then I can sort it however you like before creating the HTML table.

Here is the Congressional Vote Score Card that I did in 2009.

This was a revised version, not the first.

If it is like the one you just sent for 2009, I think that would be a lot of work, T F. And I don’t know how I would really use it. I think it would be an awful lot of work for how little it would be used.

What do you think?

I just hate to see you go to all that work for something that wouldn’t really be used.

No, it would be a much simpler table. Already have the data in spreadsheet except for the votes.

The 2009 was a product of 2 congresses. Some of the Congressmen were no longer there. it complicated the table.

And the source date I used was more complex where I got it. It did take some time to format it.

And this should be cleaner.

It would mirror Oregon voting law, which is a gaping wound. It has kept democrats firmly in power for over 20 years now. It also has made a once-open and honest citizen government about as corrupt as one can imagine.

I have a first pass HTML table done for review. I did the Legislature because that is the vote data that I found. Can do the same thing for the Senate, but will have to locate the stragglers.

Need to know where to post it. Or let me know where to send it with email. I don’t want to hijack someone’s thread with test data.

Republicans can do nothing because the ComDems are in control, but the voters can and will.

There are a lot of Dem voters in CO who hunt and like guns. NM was the same way. There will be a strong backlash to their brazen grab regardless of what the CO GOP does.

Very nice, Texas Fossil. That’s impressive.

Thank you!

Mike McLachlan, the traitor we’re recalling, is right there for all to see. Love it.

This is so typical of the 'Rats: they will applaud any changes in election procedure that will facilitate cheating and fraud that accrues to their benefit, and these certainly would.
