I get so tired of posting this over and over, but here goes again...it’s your friggin state that went left, not Californians. Blame the people who’ve lived there for decades, who btw voted for Democrats even in the 80’s (Patsy Schroeder ring a bell?). If there are millions of liberals fleeing CA every election cycle, why is CA going ever more to the left and how is the population keep exploding here? The math just doesn’t fly. Oh, and btw CA was rock solid conservative in the 80s, are those the people that have supposedly left the state after voting for Reagan, Deukmajian and Wilson and somehow went Marxist crossing the CO state line?

Ok, so I lived there watched CALIFRONIANS come into two small towns, buy up all the cheap real estate (according to them) Ran our taxes up, changed our local politics,Brought in their liberal enviormentalism, same sex marriage, and all their other liberal B.S.! What should I believe you or what I experienced?!

There's no question that Colorado has become a blue state. In the '80s we had a Republican majority in both houses, a Republican governor, 2 Republican senators, and 5/2 split of Rep/Dem representatives.

Now we have a Democratic majority in both houses, a Democratic governor, 2 Democratic senators, and 2/5 split of Rep/Dem representatives. The exact opposite.
