DENVER -- Contentious political contests and Colorado's biggest experiment yet with mail-in voting has drawn a record number of primary voters, with Republicans alone already surpassing the total number of ballots cast from both parties in the 2006 general election for governor.
Most Colorado counties are using all-mail balloting and as of midday Tuesday, 38 percent of Democrats had voted and nearly 42 percent of Republicans had turned in ballots, according to figures from the Secretary of State's Office. Both figures are much higher than usual for a primary race. Denver had a voter turnout of about 16 percent in the primaries of 2006 and 2008.

Mail in balloting — vote fraud on a massive scale.
The official count is due 13 days after today’s primary voting deadline. All of these races are now so close according to polling that votes cast late and provisional and military ballots counted in the coming days could factor significantly into the results.
I don’t think so...I had to request a mail in ballot with signature verification. The ballot arrived and had bar code on envelope and ballot. Plus, I had to submit a copy of my driver’s license as well. Comfortable with it so far...
Under “Topics”, enter “breaking”
But probably better to hit “abuse” and ask/tell the mod what you want to do.
Which candidates did Palin endorse?? Which did McCain support??
I know squat about these races. Simple question: Good Guys or Bad Guys winning?
McConnell(good guy) not winning against Tipton.
There is no vote fraud in my precinct.
