Social media posts, along with Cruzs campaign website, reveal that Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)97% supporters in the Colorado Republican Party were responsible for crushing an effort to give Colorado the ability to vote in a state primary. In May of 2015, four Colorado Senate Republicans killed an initiative to create a presidential primary in 2016, reported the Denver Post. 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.

Oh cool!
I sent the Breitbart story to Drudge but I imagine it's already been sent. Americans need to see this.

Awesome poll!
Well, how about that Junior Senator from your state of Texas?
He sure wasn’t doing Texas business when he had that election bill killed in May, 2015 by those 4 GOP, CO state senators, who just happen to be on his presidential leadership team!
That Cruz is just “full of surprises.”
We was robbed.
We was hoodwinked!
I guess, I would just want to ask, Sen. Kevin Grantham, Sen. Kent Lambert, Sen. Laura Woods, and Sen. Jerry Sonnenberg, how is this working out for you?
Cruz, 34 delegates.
Trump, verification of his complaint(s). Verification that may just propel him into the White House. If it can be fumigated by Jan,20.
state senators can be recalled.
that would be a roast in hellfire event to see....
What? Grantham was a sponsor of the bill. If he thought the bill made enough sense to put his name on it, why wouldnt he think it should be passed out of committee?
Trump should make this snake the poster boy for insider games. Tie has butt to Ted Cruz at every rally and make him a household name. Force CNN to cover the story.
Cruzer a-holes. They can’t win so they drag everyone down with them. Ask crying Beck if he’s happy about backing Lyin Ted. He went all in with Ted and now his ship is sinking fast. Never back a career politician. They will reward you with a poisonous bite!
The bill was killed last May...
When did croooze first start his run for the presidency?
I’m looking for a pattern...
This Texan will not be voting for him...
Forget liar, call him Ted the SOB.
I am hoping his supporters are paid, I would hate to think they believe even half of what they say.
Or possibly they didn’t need the time machine, they were just determined to control the outcome no matter who or what the situation turned out to be.
Lawyers are good at destroying the language. Cruz lies a lot.
Captain of the Guard: Sire, Sire, the peasants are revolting!
King: Ah yes, they most certainly are!
I’ve been thinking the same thing, you both summed it up perfectly. It’s like the hard core gop party veterans are so into Cruz winning, that they are willing to adopt the Liberal underhanded tactics and silence dissent at any costs.
I expect that from Democrats generally, but this election has shown the true colors of some so called conservatives...and its really shameful...
That’s Sir Cruz Lies a Lot, Member of the House of Senator Lords, Minister of Dominionists, Order of Pinnochio, Commander of the Nonesuch, Lord Master of the Harem.
