The chairwoman of the Boulder County GOP has admitted that grave errors affected the Colorado Republican caucus, in which Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)97% won a clean sweep of 34 delegates without opening up the process to voting by everyday citizens.
Breitbart News has obtained an email that Boulder County GOP chairwoman Peg Cage sent to other top Republican officials in Colorado, including to other party chairs, describing the errors in the process that led to the perception of fraud. Reached for comment on the email, Cage said that the caucus might have to be done over.

The “selection of delegates” occurs via VOTING by those who bothered to attend the Caucus.
I listened to the first hour to see if he would mention the fact that the perps in CO are suggesting a redo. ALL he did in the first hour was pimp for Cruz and deny that anything wrong had been done. #NeverRush.
So how many votes were recorded for Trump, Cruz, and Kasich. You can’t provide that number because no votes were cast for them. The caucus elected delegates only.
Occasionally, there’s no easy or good answer.
Sounds to me like you’ve got your head in the game, though. If enough folk in your locale were as concerned on the issues, my bet is that this wouldn’t have been allowed to become an issue.
There are so few of us out here we just don’t matter to politicians! It is not that we don’t care and have not tried to work with them...we are too few to have a voice.
Our county seat town has filled up with liberals and they don’t mind leaving the rest of the county out. I used to be on the election board here and votes from here were nearly 100% Republican. Pretty sure they didn’t like that even though just a handful of votes.
The BOSS has laid down RULES and those who break them arfe WRONG and GONE.
It really IS as "simple" as that.
Oh and CHEATING and FRAUD is ALWAYS wrong, which is WHY Co. is now rethinking what they did!
Arfe?
Sounds like something I’d expect from Teddy’s GOP Establishment buddies.
He was on board with NAFTA. Even under Bill Clinton. Said he got it right.
He’s always been that way, I think.
Correct. I say he’s CLE and that means GOPe.
Hence, the pro-Rubio and Teddy boy.
And there you have it.
Indeed.
At State Assembly there were 630 delegates, all of whom were ELECTED at lower assemblies.
Those 630 names filled 14 pages.
Less than 1 page were pledged to Trump.
4 1/2 pages were pledged to Cruz
8 1/2 pages were unplugged.
If you prefer a direct democracy, you might try moving to Honduras.
America is a Constitutional Republic.
May he lose more listeners as they wake up to what he really is.
But in an election my vote is counted. Not so in many states Cruz has won
Good point regarding credibility. And yes, he went too far.

So all the other states that elect delegates and have a vote to determine the distribution of those delegates should do what Colorado did and just eliminate the public vote for President and just elect delegates.
