The idea that nobody voted in Colorado is a gargantuan lie. But it’s been repeated enough that a lot of folks believe it.

Why wouldn’t we believe it, that’s what Colorado told us?

Colorado will not vote for a Republican candidate for president at its 2016 caucus after party leaders approved a little-noticed shift that may diminish the state’s clout in the most open nomination contest in the modern era.

The GOP executive committee has voted to cancel the traditional presidential preference poll after the national party changed its rules to require a state’s delegates to support the candidate who wins the caucus vote.

Give me a break. The process was a mockery of two travesties of a sham, and was setup last August, specifically to exclude "outsiders" like Trump and Cruz.

Since Jeb Bush got squashed like an insect by Donald Trump, the GOPe had no choice but to choose another darling. Ted Cruz was the only one left standing, and thus became the beneficiary of their "greased skids" process.

Rush Limbaugh admitted as much a few days ago on his radio show: Cruz's success had nothing to do with a superior ground game, and everything to do with the fact that he's the new GOPe designated "NeverTrump" candidate.

It's impossible to be so naive as to deny that, and the American People are quite aware of the situation. That is why the optics have hurt Ted Cruz so much on the past couple of weeks. He's tanking in both national and state polls, and there's simply no other reason for it than his perceived delegate theft in Colorado.

If there's some additional reason Ted Cruz is fading so fast, I'd like to hear it...

Regular GOP members were not allow to vote for presidential candidate. It’s not a lie.

Post GD elections numbers of the Colorado population, listing how many millions or hundreds of thousands voted and for which candidate.

Post it. Do it. Let me see the voter counts!
