I better stock up on condoms. I heard Cory Gardner is going to ban them.

Mail-in votes make me uneasy.

So many ways to game the system when you don't have to show your face to anyone.

Maybe there are'nt as many Dem ballots because they're all in a car trunk, waiting to be "discovered" when they are needed. So many ballots, and it's election day and there's no time to check for ballots that are forgeries, duplicates, stolen out of mail boxes or dug out of dumpsters...

If the outcome is still in doubt, I expect a flood of voters to appear on election day, all claiming to have never received their ballots and demanding the right to vote NOW. Once again, the polls are closing and there's no time to check their immigration status, confirm their residencey, or make sure they haven't already voted. You're not supposed to notice that they all arrived on chartered buses...

This will only embolden the fraudsters. They will pull out ALL the stops to multiple vote.

This news could also be meant to signal election day conservative voters to stay home.

I keep hearing about term limits (for 25 years now), which requires legislation. Congress is full of career politicians. Thery aren’t about to vote themselves out of millions of dollars of easy money, power and perks of office.

That's the very reason we need term limits. The last time we came close to getting them was when Newt Gingrich was speaker and the Republican congress made the so-called Contract with America. Term limits was one of the items. Somehow, it never got implemented. Just one reason why I would never want Gingrich as the presidential nominee if anyone else were available. It was a decisive let-down, as were a number of that Congress' other missteps. Many are chronicled in Senator Tom Coburn's valuable book, Breach of Trust: How Washington Turns Outsiders Into Insiders.

RINOs to the left of us; RINOs even farther to the left of us.

Here in Colorado, in the last election, I think 10 counties had over 100% voter participation and all went for Zer0. My county was 104%. Funny how that can happen.

Sounds like Philadelphia.

They mail you your ballot. You fill it out and then either mail it in our drop it off at a collection site.

This is not just good news, this is GREAT news. Mark Udall is a jerk.

With a GOP margin this huge, I doubt seriously if the ‘Rats will even try to steal this one. They will certainly be trying in North Carolina and Alaska, however.

Does CO have any “voting” done on election day? I thought I read that they were an all mail ballot state. How does that work?
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Yes. On Election Day, they can bring their ballot to any polling place and vote in person.

I went over to politics1.com and noticed that Gunzberger tweeted his predictions, he has his rats winning (Sen and Gov) CO (and AK and KS), he earlier boasted there would be “Presidential” turnout in CO, ie fraud.

This is like the fifth story about Colorado being firmly in GOP hands.

(Until the librat vote fraud chimes in)

Again, I’ll post what I’ve posted twice before -hoping someone can answer it, and give opinions:

I wish there was some way that one could go vote, head home, get on the Internet or phone and see their vote counted to make sure that it didn’t get switched after they left.
They could check all of their past votes as well to make sure.

the ‘Rat Party’s GOTV operations and possible vote fraud.

Guaranteed voter fraud.

Wishful thinking, since at least in the CO Senate race, it has been Gardner’s to lose for some time (especially since Udall changed his residence from Colorado to Vagina).

It’s funny, had someone said in 2010 that Udall and not Bennet would be the only one Dem Senator defeated, I’d have thought they were nuts. Of course, it also shows how idiotic it was to run Ken Buck. I hope he doesn’t feel energized by winning a House seat next Tuesday to take a second run at Bennet in 2016.

Yeah, I wish Buck hadn’t run for the House, but I’m glad he agreed to leave the Senate race cause I just know a few idiots would have been trumpeting him and calling Gardner a “GOPE RINO”.

Colorado democrats are too happy and too busy smoking pot to let an
election take them away from getting high. Why vote when you can smoke?

Mike Coffman should be the guy to take out Bennet. He’s representing a lot of the swingy burbs that we need to win the state. Buck can enjoy a long career in the House.

I have three reservations about Coffman. One, he’s not a young guy, he’ll be almost 62 at the start of the 2017 Congress. Two, he rather recklessly left a key office (Sec of State) midterm and allowed the Dem Guv (Ritter) to appoint a Dem hack. Three, as a career politician, he has been in office continuously since 1989. I’d rather go with someone younger and that hasn’t spent half their life in office.

As for the other members from CO, Doug Lamborn is a year older than Coffman and Scott Tipton is a year younger. Cory Gardner is two decades younger than all of them.

State Treasurer Walker Stapleton is the same age as Gardner (the only downside is that he’s a Bush cousin). Outgoing Sec of State Scott Gessler is another possibility (he’s about 49). I endorsed him for Governor as a less controversial alternative to Beauprez and Tancredo (and one who successfully scored a statewide win). Outgoing Attorney General John Suthers will be 66 in 2017, so also too old to embark on a Senate career.

I hate when that happens, with any office but Sec of State is an especially bad one to lose. Resining as Sec of State knowing that rat will replace you is like resigning from leading a Boy Scout troop knowing a pedophile will replace you.

My biggest reservation would be, you wanna have that House seat open in a Presidential year?

Walker (I thought it was WALTER) Stapleton is a “Walker Bush” Walker?!?!

I knew that CO-6 had been a GOP seat since its creation in 1982 (never having elected a Dem), but I forgot Coffman almost lost in 2012 (winning by just a 2% plurality). It definitely would not be a seat I’d want to defend as an open one in a Presidential year.

Yup, Walker Stapleton is a Bush (though the name Stapleton is political legend in CO, as his great-grandfather was the Denver Democrat Mayor Benjamin Stapleton, for whom the former airport was named).

CO-06 was butchered in redistricting, being made far more Democrat than before (it only gave Romney 46.5% and McCain 45%; the old CO-06 had given McCain 53%).
