where is your proof that the GOP chose the delegates, I assume that you were not one? This has been the process for Colorado for the past forty years right or wrong. Where was the outrage when this process was originally started? The straw poll that was canceled, was not in any way shape or form connected with the delegate selection process. It was more a weather gauge for the delegates to see who the populace supported, but not vital to the process. When the GOP changed the rules, stating that any such vote had to be binding, the party decided to drop the meaningless vote.
You are just flat out wrong and uninformed. In the past, we elected delegates that were bound to a candidate at caucuses. I had participated in those myself. We did also have a caucuses this year and we did elect delegates, but they were non-binding delegates and the party discarded the results. It was nothing more then a meaningless straw poll. This year the Colorado gop chose the delegates, not the voters. Spin it anyway you like, that is just the fact.
