When you look at the entire year in context 5/2015 - 5/2016, there was certainly a scheme by party insiders that includes the Colorado state legislature that it evidence of deliberate rigging to defraud the Colorado electorate and strictly run their own insider's game.
1) Breitbarts article: "Revealed: Colorado Lawmakers Who Voted to Scrap Election Are Ted Cruz Delegates" which was reposted here by FR, Mozilla, explained how they began last May, to control the outcome of this election. In this article it was revealed through social media posts and Cruzs campaign website that "his supporters in the CO republican party were responsible for crushing an effort to give Colorado the ability to vote in a state primary."
The Denver Post reported that: In May of 2015, four Colorado Senate Republicans killed an initiative to create a presidential primary in 2016, and Under the bill, Colorado would have held a presidential primary in March that ran parallel with the states complicated caucus system when it came before the Senate Appropriations Committee, four Republicans voted to kill the bill with three Democrats supporting it. "The four Republicans who voted against the initiative were Sen. Kevin Grantham, Sen. Kent Lambert, Sen. Laura Woods, and Sen. Jerry Sonnenberg. On Cruzs campaign website, Sens. Woods, Grantham, and Lambert are all listed as Cruz supporters and as declared members of Cruzs Colorado Leadership team. I am honored to have the support of so many courageous conservatives in Colorado, Cruz said about his so-called leadership team in early April. With our incredible team we are in a very strong position for this weekends assemblies in Colorado. Sen. Grantham is even an official Cruz delegate and Sen. Lambert is an alternate Cruz delegate."

And while all the other pollsters deliberately stayed away from Colorado, there was a CO poll showing Trump leading Cruz by ten points that was not published until after the scheme was complete: "TRUMP CARD: Magellan Poll Finds That Trump Would Trump Cruz in a Primary." Colorado Peak Politics -Conservative Bully Pulpit ^ | April 21, 2016 | Colorado Peak Politics
There has been a lot of agitation from the Trump Camp about the caucus process in Colorado and, maybe, now we know why. A Magellan poll released today shows that in a head to head match up, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump would beat his opponent Ted Cruz in Colorado. Trump 44% ----Cruz 34% -------Kasich 17%

The rest of the shenanigans have been belabored too many times here and may not be cause enough to unseat the CO delegation. But the fact that Colorado state lawmakers have been involved in the process for a year to aid Cruz raises the issue of rigging to a much higher level.
“Colorado has more unaffiliated voters than voters registered with either party.”
Including me if this passes. I’ll switch to independent so I can have open primaries.
Hopefully, they’ll have mail in ballots so I can root around in dumpsters and vote more often.
I also don’t think the “parties” should be able to use the local government voting machines etc for elections, selections, whatever of their club members. They are using the election machines and local government processes to create an air of legitimacy to their activities.
Actually we Trump supporters should be THANKING the GOPe of Colorado as their ‘cleverness’ would up giving Trump the ammo he needed to BLAST the GOPe to its foundations.
Two or three weeks ago Rush said that he suspected that Trump knew that if we tried to wine and dine the GOPe in Colorado, he’d wind up doing just as bad as he did. So instead Trump TOTALLY IGNORED Colorado throughout the campaign...until a week before their convention, and then had a FIELD DAY with them...leading directly to his ROUTING of Cruz in NY and then last night.
Although Rush didn’t say it, if Rush’s theory is true, then Trump’s Colorado move may go down as one of the MOST BRILLIANT plays in political history - the political equivalent of Bobby Fischer’s Queen Sacrifice in what is now known as The Game of the Century. It bodes very well for November.
