Yesterday I finally got registered to vote in Colorado. I was supposed to become registered when I got my driver's license in July. All I wanted to do was change my party affiliation and receive my ballots in the mail. After a call to the county registration department I found out that I either had to change things in person or over the Internet. I chose the latter. Even this isn't easy. I had to list my driver's license three times and repeat other info. Finally what I submitted took and I am now a registered voter in Colorado.
They wouldn't let me vote in the primary because I didn't get a driver's license soon enough. That's OK but in Wyoming I could have walked up to my polling place the day of the election, registered and voted all at the same time. Not here-afraid too many illegals would sneak in and vote.
Today all ballots must be finalized and sent to the printers. One party doesn't like its nominee for governor and wants him to quit but he won't. Colorado was one of states that said it couldn't get its ballots printed to be sent to military personnel overseas and returned on time. When one of the political parties complained, all of sudden the story changed to yes we can do it. They must figure they are going to get the majority of those votes.
A friend from Wyoming said the elections up there are getting nasty. Down here they are getting vicious. I say a pox on both their houses and everyone should run as an independent with six weeks of campaigning-oh, and term limits.
