The Secretary of State candidates in Colorado debated last night and voters lost

A pair of debates took place Tuesday night between the Democrat and Republican candidates for treasurer and secretary of state in Colorado. It was held at the University of Denver.

The territory definitely belonged to the liberals. You could feel it in the atmosphere. You could see it in the crowd; at least twice as many in the audience were wearing blue t-shirts for the Democrat.

My husband and I sat in the second row behind the timekeepers.

We were very well behaved during the debate between the candidates for treasurer. No outbursts from us. We listened attentively and clapped when we were supposed to clap. Very respectful.

Then Pam Anderson (R) – who was recently on the cover of Time Magazine -- and Secretary of State Jenna Griswold (D) came out to debate.

Everything started respectfully. We were still minding our manners.

Then Secretary Griswold launched into slander against President Trump, the people who voted for him, and other candidates, out of the blue. It was unnecessary and off point. It must have been her way of lighting up the base in the crowd and those watching on YouTube. She said that President Trump tried to steal the election.

“Boo!” I said, right to Griswold’s face.

Everyone was stunned.

Griswold recovered and went on to say that there was the Big Lie and the Republican candidates were election deniers and conspiracy this and disinformation that, so on and so forth.

I said boo again.

The moderators said, “Ma’am, you can’t do that. You have to be quiet.”

“Boo, boo, boo,” was my response.

Anderson noticed what I was meaning and, during her time, spoke about how Griswold’s rhetoric made everything hotter at a time when we don’t need that.

I would request for a link to the video of the debate, but I don’t want to vomit my tasty coffee all over my monitor and keyboard.

" It was held at the University of Denver."

Nobody in their right mind could expect anything less than what happened. A useless location frequented by (mostly) useless eaters.

Universities are ground zero for all that is wrong with America. Denver is ground zero for all that is wrong with Colorado.

Debate? What a joke.

Democrats have become the party of hate, and politicians know they can’t go wrong hating on DJT. Most of them have nothing else to talk about.

the colorado GOP, such as it is, is totally controlled by country-club RINOs, and their candidates are the same: country-club RINO good-ol boys and gals ... they always think that if they can appeal to the Dems by being “moderate” (leftist) Republicans, that that will somehow translate to winning ... of course, they ignore ACTUAL GOP voters and therefore always lose even worse than if they promoted candidates the voters wanted ...

btw, Joe O’Dea is the worst of the entire lot, repudiating and attacking Donald Trump ...

Griswold is nothing but a tool. She knows the election was stolen just like everyone else. Dever is a real shit hole.

Colorado had 10 counties with more votes than registered voters..........

These people are running for secretary of state. Who addressed this problem directly?

The media has hoodwinked people into believing that these are free and fair elections, but facts are stubborn things.

In this picture I see only 1 blue t-shirt, and also only 1 red t-shirt. For what it’s worth. 😋

We have not yet begun to understand the scope of the problem. Local elections in most large states haven’t been free and fair for years.

The State has only recently learned how to rig elections at the national level, but they showed their arse in doing so.
