How's that #MeToo movement working out for ya, Rochelle?

She got pounded....

What are the allegations? First I heard of any of this.

Galindo is done.

Rep. Rochelle Galindo announces resignation in wake of 'false allegations'

Twitter is saying the accuser was one of her own campaign workers but no sources. Police report is sealed?!?

So much for "GOP homophobia" being her undoing.

Hopefully the folks in Weld country can get someone who can better represent the folks in Weld instead of CaliforniaWest.

Predicted she would resign when they started collecting signatures, now the D’s will replace her with the most left person available in HD50

Still can't believe she managed to get elected in Weld County to begin with.

This.. its a win for the D’s.

So HD50 is carved out around the university, not by accident

She did her stint and the damage is done. Now they'll replace her with someone that will likely vote the very same way...or worse since they won't have to answer to the voters.

You walked right past “Weld country?” I did that for you!

I think they’ll find a less controversial replacement. She resigned because she was threatened by recall. People are pissed.

The prize is the next legislative session, not putting their thumbs in the eye of constituents now.

Pretty damned obvious that once Galindo did as much damage as she could and the uproar started to get serious, then the Dem party forced her to resign so she didn't get recalled. Now they're free to put someone else in her place that's even MORE leftist and radical, with no worries.

What I don't understand is how Polesmoker can just decree that he's eliminating the CO Electoral vote, and "we're going with National Popular Vote" now. How can he DO that? How is it even LEGAL?

I doubt these National Public Vote laws will survive in the courts, but it'll be a while until that happens and if they are able to get D's elected in the mean time they figure they can rig the system to protect their party.

What's going to be doubleplus funny is if Trump wins the popular vote in 2020 and loses the vote here in CO but CO is beholden to give our EVs to Trump ... that'll get this nonsense reversed overnight.
