ELECTION 2014 - Merged Threads

The whole point was to remove the Democrat. What don't you people understand? So it's better with Hick still in than an Establishment Republican? Is that really how you see it? This state is so fucked.....

It is really annoying. It wasn't about Republican vs. Democrat. It was about removing a guy who consorted with east coast gun grabbing special interests to strip us of our rights and then lied about it.

Normally, I am not that vocal and respect those who vote this way. However, I don't care if Hickenlooper's opponent was the biggest turd on the face of the earth, Hickenlooper needed to be thrown out of office. It was an extremely important message that we as gun owners failed to deliver.

Me either. BUT, hickenliar fucking screwed us, lied to us, lied to us again & still people feel the need to "make a point", a point which is never made except to show how foolish & ill-informed they really are.........well, once again congrats 3rd party voters, you did it! 4 MORE YEARS OF DEMOCRATS!

...but to some folks that don't understand election math, they got to feel like they made a difference for a few hours.

The Boulder vote counters are taking a break to "get some rest" and will be back counting later this morning.

This right here sums it up.

Well I am hoping for something put forward to the voters in the next election cycle that overturns the laws put in place in 2013. A November 2015 vote for such a measure would be perfect. Anybody know a group working on this?

A complete repeal of the Universal Background Check is unlikely and is likely permanent; I was just hoping it would be amended in the next four years which is impossible now. I doubt that any gun initiative UBGC, mag law, or both will pass in Colorado during a presidential year.

Woke up to see Hickenlooper in the lead.

It's a bummer, but not exactly surprising.

On the upside of things, Republicans have managed to retake the state senate, tossed a long-time incumbent senator out on his ass, and forced Hickenlooper to actually work to keep a job that's going to put him in a position of having to deal with a senate that is no longer friendly to him.


As for all of the finger pointing at libertarians, if you guys actually want to sway libertarian-minded voters to your side, the first step to doing so is to stop being accusatory dicks.

Good thing no one cares about Denver laws

It's interesting that there are 1700 more votes in the Governor's race than the Senate race. Hum, why would you vote in one and not the other? Tin foil hat time- how many ballots needed to be filled out to ensure Hick wins?

Also, why would you split ticket Gardner and Hick?

That's what I've been wondering. How did we almost go all red but went blue on the gov
