Certain districts will always vote one way or another. The D's complain about gerrymandering, yet they are the ones who did the redistricting. I bet the D's are saying the same thing about Ken Buck. Who care's..... If the R's don't step up they will be gone next election cycle. IF the D's with Obama at the helm use EO's to pass immigration (SURPRISE!) reform, minimum wage and what ever else their entitlement minds think up. They will not be voted but dragged out, in tar and feathers .

Take a stand where ever you want. Mine is set.

Would love for the CO legislature to also run some voter ID laws past his desk, see him reject it and be in favor of illegal voting.

I think they tried to pass voter ID laws in the recent past here and of course it was shut down due to all the minorities who would be oppressed BS.

BTW, in India you're required to have ID to vote. And even the poor people who make less than $1 a day all have IDs. Imagine that... Over a billion people and they all have IDs so they can vote. You need ID to get welfare and all kinds of free handouts, but not to vote. Gotta love that irony!

Then he can veto enough bills to get himself recalled. and with the race as close as it is now I think that is a good possibility if he starts doing things that Coloradoans dislike.

I had to look it up, governors CAN be recalled in Colorado. It requires 25% of the votes received to bring upon a recall election. That's a lot of signatures.

Just disallow anyone who is not a net-payer of taxes from voting.
They should not get a say in how taxes are spent.
Want to vote? Get a job, get off welfare, and go vote.
Problem solved.

While I agree, you and I both know this will never happen. Every election from then on would be a massive landslide against the Dems which they will never allow.

And BIG surprise...

Colorado House majority balance remains uncertain with tight races

"These are strongholds for Democrats," said State Rep. Rhonda Fields, D-Aurora. "So I think these are going to come back in favor of the Democrats."

Delay reporting your results so you can ensure the "correct" outcome.

Are you sure about that? I think a more likely situation is that Obama will sign the most sweeping immigration/entitlement EOs he can think of. Republicans will be frothing at the mouth and make idiots out of themselves in the eyes of "minorities," thereby ensuring a Republican loss in 2016. Legacy win for Obama and big win for Democrats.

From the looks of things, unless there is a miracle out there, Hickenlooper is going to retain his job. That's just sickening. Maybe we should change our state flag.

How's that immigration working out there?

Has the petition to rename it "Colofornia" been started yet?

Probably more like Julius Ceasar when he was 'ousted'... O will cry “Alea iacta est!” and get his 'army' together and fight hard against the R's...

This is exactly what will happen.
Obama is now in a corner. He doesn't give two sh*ts about whether his actions would hurt Hillary or any other Dem running for prez in two years. It's all about him and his legacy is at stake. He'll use that pen and phone as he wishes and sadly it appears congress is pretty much powerless to stop him. In these next two years can really hurt this country. Oh, I'm sorry, I meant to say "fundamentally change this country" to match his and his bases's views to the point where this country is barely recognizable. Every city in this country could be a border city. That's my fear.

OK so the news says we are still counting ballots to see who controls the house/senate. So if we are then how the hell do we know hickenlicker won???
