Trump is about the only guy in this party who knows how to fight, it seems.

I’m kind of resigned to that. This could mark the end of CO.

Governor races have been under reported by the MSM.

I don't have enough information to know what the state issues are the people are voting for.

This is likely because governor races aren't a 'referendum on Trump'.

As you said, we'll see.

I don’t think it’s unrealistic to now describe Colorado as a blue state.

Hm...I could always move a bit north....

THIS is about to become my Lt. Governor here in PA.

If Gov. Wolf suffers a cardiac event he'll be running this state. I suspect he really will Free Mumia.

So true. The Republicans seemed to have found the RINO treasure chest full of losers to run for governors. Not all, but many.

I don’t like to judge people by their appearance but he looks like he has a lengthy criminal record.

I don’t want to go north, but I may have to go somewhere.

"I don’t see how a republican goes and votes for republicans but chooses a democratic governor? "

I honestly could not vote for Henry McMaster for governor in South Carolina. I left the selection blank. The GOPe in SC have been in power so long that they have become corrupt and govern as if they were Democrats. McMaster will win despite my protest, but at least it made me feel better to withhold my vote for him.

Believe it or not he has a Masters Degree from Harvard and an MBA from Connecticut. Instead of a real job though he joined Clinton’s Ameri-Corps community organizing project. They brought him to Braddock, PA and he stayed.

Didn’t the Democrats get themselves down to 9 governorships or something rediculous number like that? How could there NOT be a lot of races on “republican turf”. The demonIdiots don’t have a hell of a lot of turf.

Two of the last 3 CO polls are from groups not very credible that you can throw out. One of was from a med insurance company who wants Polis. The 3rd and more credible poll from an established polling company that has Stapleton at 5% behind Polis with 11% undecided. If Polis wins, it’s going to be around a 3 percent margin. It’s going to come down to the usual CO Unaffiliated voters, and the Rs better show up today. It’s doable, but not easy to get about every Repub to the polls.

In 2014, the R candidate Bob Beauprez only lost by 2.9% to Hickenlooper.
