Seems to me the base was out and voted yesterday while some folks went weak at the knees or sat things out pouting over their own issues.
close ... except the base didn't even make it - 40% just ain't cutting it ;(
Where I'm from, we had a huge turnout for an off-year election. They just voted against us. The dems now have complete control of Colorado--R's are irrelevant spectators.
Very long-term and lasting damage coming in Colorado--the voters don't understand that they voted for a long-awaited payoff to the teacher's union by the dems. It's going to cost us huge buckets of money and set our education system back decades. And, homeschooling and charter schools are pretty much history here.
