The Democratic-leaning issue committee is supporting Proposition CC, which seeks to eliminate state spending caps under TABOR. Turnout among Democrats for the 2019 election has been low.
Coloradans for Prosperity, a deep-pocketed group working to pass Proposition CC on November’s ballot, has been sending people a voter “report card” in an effort to boost turnout.
The report cards grade recipients on their recent voting record compared to their neighbors, urging them to cast their ballots. Some voters have been frustrated by the mailers, however, saying they incorrectly give them a poor mark on their turnout.
“Public records indicate that you voted less often than your neighbors in recent elections,” the mailer reads. “Raise your grade by voting in the 2019 general election in November.”

We just got one of these and Mrs. Catnipman was pretty POed ...
Ping.
Colorado Ping ( Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)
Polis the Putrid.
Politics to match the name.
Where I live I must get at least forty voter guides.
I generally do my own research instead.
It would be a good idea for some non-biased organization to send “report card” to the constituents of every member of Congress and every member of the State of residence’s Legislature.
I already voted NO on CC.
How many dead people and illegal aliens are being graded on these report cards?
Yes. and got a call from Gardner to vote No.
Isn’t voting day the 5th?
I usually vote early because of my working schedule, but will be off from tomorrow morning until Friday morning. I’ll be voting on the day.
Our Newspaper (The Durango Herald) is a terrible Lib Rag. One year before a general election they did a “report card” type editorial with all their recommendations and endorsements on how to vote.
I called and spoke to the Editor and told him I really appreciated his saving me a lot of time doing research on the candidates and issues and that I was going to vote just the opposite of what he endorsed. Boy, he got hot.
Unlimited funding of illegal immigrants and unlimited funding of government—what could possibly go wrong?
Well done—you have just discovered the rule of opposites.
When you read a mass media news story imagine if the exact opposite were true. _That_ will give you a good idea of what _really_ happened.
I don’t think this is new....they did it here in Pa. in 2016...ignore it.
And threw that "report card" in the trash.
Yep. Creepy Ted Cruz tried that Big Brother crap and it backfired.
Colorado has gone to all-mail-in ballots. Those ballots were mailed out several weeks ago. The counties also have a system of drop boxes at libraries and other public locations, where you can leave your ballots. They collect them every day until the 5th of November.
There is an online application you can access that will tell you if the County Clerk has received your (so far unopened) ballot. Political campaign organizations subscribe to that data (at a hefty fee) to target their calls and letters. Once you have turned in a ballot, the calls and letters stop.
Add me to your list.
Another ‘NO!’ on CC.
Dropped the ballot off at the city hall.
