If TRUMP wins Colorado it will be a landslide

Left in 1999

State was taken over by California liberals

I lived in Colorado Springs

The area became over crowed with people from the Springs to Denver

Was a nice size town in 1980 when I moved there

There is NO enthusiasm for Hillary here in Colorado. I mean absolutely NONE!

Ain't that the truth. Where I live in upstate NY I have seen a grand total of one Hillary yard sign and one Hillary bumper sticker. Lots of Trump signs and some Johnson signs as well. Weird. Not saying Trump can carry NY but I suspect it will be closer than four years ago for sure.

If these numbers hold up the the only way he would lose is massive vote fraud.

Legalization of lot was on the ballot in 2012 so that brought brought out a lot of lefty voters, this year maybe they’ll just get stoned and stay home.

Maybe they’ll be too stoned to find the voting booths.

Outside of my home state of North Carolina, the beautiful state of Colorado is my favorite state in America.

I love hearing how the folks there are voting for Trump and just hope and pray, Colorado will be a win for him.

FWIW I voted early for the first time in my life last week. I’m unaffiliated but have never voted for a Democrat.

Tomorrow will be interesting for sure! Just can’t wait for it to be over.

“I have seen 1 bumper sticker for her, and I’ve been looking hard for six weeks.”

Same here. NO Hitlery signs anywhere to be found in Colorado.

Praying this holds up.

Of course, that’s on based on party registrations. Wait until half the Republicans show up as flipped to demoncrat.

“Come on. Numbers?”

We were up by 7,000. Out of 1-2 million cast. We were tied on Friday (80 votes difference).

This will all come down to how UAF’s break and who turns out their base today and tomorrow. And how many votes Boulder finds in late returns.

“Trump ground came is very strong in CO. They have people from CA, OR and NRA working on ballots.”

Really, it’s not. I’m on the ground in CO. And we have almost no support from either the Trump campaign or from the State Party. We’re going to have good turnout in my district but that’s only because of a purely local effort by a bunch of great volunteers—we haven’t even been able to get enough Trump literature to walk. We printed literature up at the county level so we had something to walk and we’ve made over 15,000 calls in the last week or so.

The only HRC yard signs I have seen are in limousine lefty Park Hill.

I’m not. Lots of those CO UAs are like me: former Pubs who could no longer stomach the RINO/Paul Ryan stench. There’s also others who’ve fled a Democrat party that’s now more representative of Karl Marx than Jack Kennedy.

Plus I think it’s a reasonable assumption that there are fewer knee-jerk voters amongst CO UAs than R’s or D’s, and the CO UAs instead might actually pay a bit closer attention to what’s actually going on in trying to make an informed decision. Certainly I put more hope in the CO UAs than the CO D’s.

“State was taken over by California liberals.”

It’s all money and district lines. R’s usually win the overall vote for the State house and Senate. But the D’s drop tons of money into contested legislative seats and the 2010 redistricting that was imposed by the State Supreme Court was brutal to R’s. So we can win 55% of the House vote and still lose the house.

Likewise.

Because of the primary situation here (more specifically, the lack-of-primary situation), there is little reason to affiliate. And if there is a primary of interest, one can temporarily affiliate in less time than it takes to fill out the ballot. Just plan ahead and affiliate 30 days in advance.

“And if there is a primary of interest, one can temporarily affiliate in less time than it takes to fill out the ballot. Just plan ahead and affiliate 30 days in advance. “

That’s EXACTLY what I did for the Prez caucus back in August. Was a complete waste of time though, as the insiders had the thing 100% rigged for Cruz. The Dems were apparently no better, having rigged it for Hillary.

The one good thing that did come out of that whole caucus fiasco, is that we’re likely to ditch the archaic and arcane caucus system and end up with an actual primary ELECTION from here on out if the the ballot initiatives pass tomorrow.
