Extreme liberal bias was found even in states generally thought to be conservative, such as Colorado.

Really? I have never thought of Colorado as an especially conservative state. I welcome input from Colorado FReepers on this. Most of the Coloradans I have known seem like Californians.

To my knowledge Colorado Springs is the most conservative city (Norad, Peterson AFB, Shriver AFB, AF Academy, FT Carson). Southern Colorado has a strong hispanic influence and therefore normally votes Dim. Denver, the state's most populous city has a strong liberal stance on many issues (gun control mainly). Most of the CA people coming into the state are conservative, probably the only people smart enough to leave CA.
