To me, this constitutes “taxation without representation”.

If they can do this, what’s next? The elites pick the Governor? The senators/congress? Impose new taxes and regulations?

A dangerous and anti-American precedent has been established. The camel’s nose is in the tent. Before long other liberal states will try the same trick, then Presto, we’re a third-world nation.

Hillary and Obama will love it. Bernie will think it’s all his doing. The GOPe will writhe in orgasmic spasms whilst cashing their K-street checks.

The next step will be the elites appointing the President with all elections cancelled.

The country “of the people, for the people, and BY THE PEOPLE will be a thing of the past.

After that, the party elites will cancel the Constitution and all of our fought-for rights will go away. Guns, bibles, and wealth will be confiscated.

We will become Cuba II.

Where’s the FEC on this? Where are the federal lawsuits? Where are the riots and uprisings? Where is Congress?

Are legalized pot Coloradans so stoned they don’t see what’s happening?

Taxes pay for your right to vote! The Colorado delegates should be declared null and void. Otherwise, what’s the difference between this and Hilary’s “super delegates”?

You realize that the “election” is for electors, and they are NOT bound by what the popular vote says.

This was by design. The Founding Fathers did not trust the population to elect good leaders. Heck, the Senate was appointed by the governors of the states for a long time.
