Maybe Colorado is the Disenfranchised Voter Battlefield in '08??
I just spoke with the state Democratic Party headquarters, and found out that, with the recent mandate by the governor that '08 be an all-paper ballot vote, that "thousands" of Democrats in Colorado are finding that their registration has been changed from "D" to "U".

Damn, these RWers are really good, eh?

But, the state Dems have been culpable for not taking this more seriously in the years since '04!

Everyone in Colorado, best check your registration!

2. It matters a lot. It's in the wrong forum - this is the food fight place.
GD or election. For me it's significant - as I just heard Colorado was turning blue. Not unlike Ohio in 2004...K&R (and post it elsewhere as well)

4. Sec. of State Said The D - U Issue Would Be Changed

right away and it wouldn't take too long to do. Re: the ballots, if you want to vote by mail, get a mail in ballot, go to precincts for paper ballot. No computer voting is a good thing.

The Rocky Mt. News ???? Come on, they pretty much suck. I was interviewed once by a RMN reporter and he was as dumb as dirt!

6. Who mentioned the Rocky Mountain Pravda? I sure didn't.
I don't know where you got that.

I said, if you read my first post, that this info came directly from the STATE DEMOCRATIC HEADQUARTERS.
