if it has any kind of number or barcode on it, i'm guessing they know who it was sent to

I received this voicemail today in Colorado.
I think the GOP claiming to know who has or hasn't returned a ballot is creepy and inappropriate. No one has the information to say who has or hasn't returned a ballot. So, on top of being creepy, they are also being liars.
I don't like the "Big Brother is watching you" creepy messages.
Voicemail: "Hi this is Lindsey with the Colorado Republican committee. Our record show that you or someone in your household has not yet returned your ballot. Everyone has a voice in this election. Jared polis wants to bring his boulder liberal agenda to all of Colorado by socializing our Health Care increasing our taxes and taking jobs away from Colorado and we need every Republican voter this election. Please return your ballot today. This call was paid for by Colorado Republican Party at 970-329-1690."
Good for him for doing that, I doubt I could get through Ranger School, but doesn't he have anything else to say? His opponent is a retired Marine, who unretired to go back to Iraq, then retired again.

Whatever...If it reminds some Republicans to vote, good.
It’s public information. It’s called get out the vote effort. It’s the kind of stuff that prevents you from having Jared Polis, a homo,
as a governor banning all fracking, Drilling, and outlawing private health insurance and having single-payer Colorado Health Care. Get over it sport.
I received one as well very threating and it sounded like a dangerous person. The weird thing is I just got off a court case in Seattle with the massive leftist there.
The fun thing is I cast my ballot yesterday and voted across the board Red. So I told this guy that and also said the dem party should have been abolished in 1865.
Nice day... your probably going to go away in a few weeks permanently Democrats. Bye
Whether you have voted is a public record. It runs about 2-3 days behind.
So you vote. It takes the clerk 2-3 days to post that you have voted.
Should the caller have pretended she didn’t know?
I’m afraid there aren’t enough Republicans left in CO (as with VA too) to do much of anything to halt the leftists there.
No, sir. Your ballot return is NOT public record until after the election. You can ask about your ballot online, but other information such as your birthdate is required.
General party affiliation numbers are available. That’s it. There is no voter intimidation of, “Go see Mr. CodeToad and get him to send in his ballot. We haven’t received his yet.”
Creepy voter intimidation voicemail, al la Ted Cruz.
Considering some of the corruption and out-of-touch candidates the eGOP put up in this place? Colorado is lost to the liberals.
The GOP is a good ol’ boys club here in Colorado. You have to socialize in their circles and get blessed to run. It is just far too easy for a democrat to run than a republican. Republicans turn away candidates by ensuring their entry process is ridiculous.
Remember, too, this is the State GOP that not only collaborated illegally to ensure Ted Cruz was their candidate by refusing to seat electors for Trump, but they denounced Trump once Trump was the candidate, and they still do. Elected GOP officials are publicly hostile towards Trump.
“Should the caller have pretended she didn’t know?”
She obviously doesn’t know. Voter intimidation using creepy messages that lie are no way to win an election. It is close enough in this State and the GOP loses ground every election.
“Whatever...If it reminds some Republicans to vote, good.”
If it PO’s some Republicans and they don’t vote, bad.
if it has any kind of number or barcode on it, i'm guessing they know who it was sent to

Why?
This is not creepy!! Democrats calling you and want your vote now that is creepy!!!
If it PO’s some Republicans and they don’t vote, bad.
><
I suppose there are Republican Snowflakes.
I can see your point. It would have been much better to simply say “This is a reminder to mail in your ballot”.
I think it’s creepy that you don’t want to win this election. The GOP should be doing much more of this.
I like the honesty of it. Especially since it is public information and all campaigns work on getting out “their vote” that hasn’t shown up yet.
Well, why haven’t you return your ballot?
“I think it’s creepy that you don’t want to win this election. The GOP should be doing much more of this.”
Listen, Sunshine, trying to intimidate voters into voting is not how you win elections but lose them. Piss people off and they’ll either not vote or vote for the other guy.
The Colorado GOP gets a slim margin of victory when they do win.
Pissing off people with this Big Brother tactic is only going to reduce the GOP vote tally, not increase it. We’re not pussies like the democrats.
“Well, why haven’t you return your ballot?”
I already did, you presumptuous idiot. Did you really believe the message knew if I had voted?? Are you really that dense??
