Doesn’t Colorado still have ranchers and hunters and regular folk who have guns? How does this kind of legislation get passed in a western state, where a good majority of people probably have some kind of weapon?

Bloomberg and a band of New Yorkers came in and bought those seats, including the head of the state senate. They passed those laws without committee review, citizen input,bypassing all the normal state senate procedures.

They didn’t want any industries in colorado that weren’t beholden to them, so they used environmental laws to hurt farmers, close coal mines, harass our natural gas companies, and passed gun laws to drive off the rest. Then they passed a voter registration law where anyone can register to vote in a county they don’t even live in, just by stating they plan to move there in the next 20 days. They don’t even have to do so.

Two senators were recalled, but the third resigned before the recall election could be scheduled, allowing senate dems to fill the seat, and keep control of the senate for this year.

A slim dem majority in the state house. Since then 2 of them have been recalled and one forced to resign. But the damage is done.....

That's why two Senators have been recalled here for the first time in history and a third resigned before her recall was done.

Influx of Californistanians over the years changed the political makeup of CO.

Liberals leave their hellholes but vote for the same policies in their new homes.
