Colorado taxpayers should not pay any taxes since their right to vote was stripped from them.
They have no representation so they should refuse to pay taxes.
For the past 4 election cycles in Colo. a caucus is held to elect delegate to county assemblies and from there county assemblies elect delegates to the state and district assemblies. At that point that's where the delegates to the RNC are elected--NOTHING NEW.
The Colorado GOP started holding non-binding straw polls to coincide with their caucuses in 2008. This meant that the Colo. GOP did not bind their delegates to the straw poll and delegates could pledge who they supported through the National Delegate Notice of Intent form. This "pledge" bound the delegates on the first round of balloting.
Keep in mind the reason the Colo. GOP did change their pref. poll format this election cycle back in August was not b/c of Trump but because of an RNC rule change in 2012 that mandated if a state GOP had any kind of strawpoll, that state GOP was required to bound its delegates to the result of that straw poll.
The new rule was 16(a)(1):
Any statewide presidential preference vote that permits a choice among candidates for the Republican nomination for President of the United States in a primary, caucuses, or a state convention must be used to allocate and bind the state’s delegation to the national convention in either a proportional or winner-take-all manner, except for delegates and alternate delegates who appear on a ballot in a statewide election and are elected directly by primary voters.
Since Colo. never bound delegates to the straw poll to begin with, they changed the format back in August of 2015 and ditched the strawpoll so their delegates could remain unbound.
