No, the entire state is NOT as loony as Bolder. There are some strong republican/conservative counties but not enough of them to sway the state in a general election.
When an election looks as though an ‘undesirable’ candidate might take an election, they re-draw district lines.
Voters used to get together to vote out someone who might be a problem at the local level..ie tyranny. They would discuss who they should vote for, and then vote as a block. The corrupt officials didn’t like that, so they redrew the lines so that couldn’t happen, again.
I was there. I witnessed the officials deciding where to redraw the lines, and why. I waited on that table and heard it ALL.
Colorado is VERY corrupt.
Mesa County is supposed to be about the most conservative county in Colorado; but you need to stay outside the Grand Junction city limits.
Another problem is that the "conservative" voters don't do their homework and do not know whom they are voting for. In partisan races (where there is an "R" or "D" after each name to guide the uninformed), Mesa County elections are usually clean sweeps for the Republicans. But non-partisan elections (without the "R/D" annotations) have been nearly clean sweeps for the progressives. The District 51 school board and GJ city council are good examples.
My rural, conservative county got folded into the same voting district as Boulder. We have 14,000 people in our country and Boulder county has 313,000.
So, we have no representation. I won’t bother going to a caucus under those conditions. We might as well be living in Berkeley, CA when it comes to elections.
The only saving grace is that a mountain range separates us and we don’t have to deal with those people on a daily basis.
