    Yep Dems have the trifecta here in Colorado now, House, Senate, Gov. They can pass a 3 round mag limit and no grandfathering if they want. Revolvers for everyone if you can pass a new special background check that you have to pay for and takes 3 years to pass.

    The rest of Colorado needs to find a way to secede from Denver and inside the 470 beltway.

    I changed my party affiliation to unaffiliated.

    The CO GOP is a joke, they couldn't find their ass with both hands at high noon on a cloudless day. They didn't even try to win.

    I agree. The only statewide R candidate worth a crap was Brauchler. Stapleton was the worst choice of the whole lot, typifying the parties selection of the boobish "company man" over somebody who could actually run a competitive race.

    If you look overall, REPs did poor in CO.

    Coffman said it well... DEM judges wrote the districts (which i dont see how that is legal as judges have no authority to write the maps) and gerrymandered the districts in DEM favor.

    Then just looking at other races, the suburbanites overwhelmingly went for DEMs. It wasnt one race, or two or a bad candidate... the suburbanites (especially women) I think dislike Trump and made Colorado REPs pay.

    I think running "good" candidates would not have helped. In fact maybe (let me hope) it is a strategy to keep better candidates from being "losers" for the next round of elections.

    What I would like to see at the state level is that the CO house or senate had very easy districts for one of them. The districts would be called "counties". Each county gets one representative. That would balance out the needs of rural vs Denver/Boulder.

    I agree strongly, with each senator representing 1-3 geographically contiguous counties. Unfortunately, I believe such an arrangement is illegal (SCOTUS ruling?) even though the US Senate is fundamentally the same set-up.

    Coffman's campaign didn't help and the silver lining is that CO retired a wannabe McCain. Maybe we get a better candidate out of this?
