I'm nervous. A short bit ago, CC yes was leading like 56% to 44%, labelled as 20% reporting. Now, as of 2 minutes ago, it's No 56, Yes 44. Moving in the right direction, but that early scare has me a bit on edge.

Should have seen it when only Denver was reporting :)

no kidding, 9 news reported CC "yes" votes were way ahead at the time that the 6 o'clock news aired. Must've been when only Denver was reporting...Surely people aren't ready to give the Dems. full rein on taxes....

This was so heavily favored to the Government, I can't imagine how strong the people are (like Douglas Bruce!) that resist it.

Without raising taxes and to better fund public schools, higher education, and roads, bridges, and transit, within a balanced budget, may the state keep and spend all the revenue it annually collects after June 30, 2019, but is not currently allowed to keep and spend under Colorado law, with an annual independent audit to show how the retained revenues are spent?

YOU MAY NOT!

They got it passed in CA.

We're damn close to being East CA, so it's likely just a matter of time.

Not this time.

Agreed, and I am glad of that fact.

I just find it unlikely that it will stay that way with the rate of new people, often lib's, headed for CO.

My understanding was that California never had a Tabor (Tax Payors Bill of Right's) Amendment, and therefore were at the mercy of their politicians.

We have had, and will hopefully continue to have, a Tax Payers Bill of Rights.

Thank you Douglas Bruce.
