Colorado state convention thread

[Monotaur]

OK, I'm here at the Colorado State convention. Finding seats now. Starts at 9. I'll post updates as warranted and able.

Good Luck!

Hope that today is a success!

Ugh, Romney campaign is putting out multiple "fake" slates that look like the Ron Paul and Christian's conservative slate. Someone also put the Romney slate in the convention tote bags you get when you register...

 

[revned]

Be sure to tell everyone!

How are they even able to pass out "fake" slates? You should do the same for the Romney people, if that's the game they want to play.

Good luck to you!!

Yeah the campaign is on it. They have told everyone they can as they enter. Also wrote "FAKE" on a bunch and put them on the seats. The campaign emailed all delegates about it.

Any way on Twitter that we can get details on what's going on?

I really wish it could be traced back so someone could confront the people in charge. Can you take a pic of the fake slate by any chance?

I wish getting caught conducting these dirty tricks automatically meant disqualification from the caucus and the party as a whole, indefinitely.

Ok so it's a copy of a design - not fake in that the names aren't legit or something like that. Does it say Ron Paul delegates on it and have Romney people's names?

Edit. I saw the pic - not really fake. They just copied the wording. Hey this is politics - It's a rough game, better get used to it

Good luck, my friends.

 

[Darguth]

Prayers going out for all of you, fight the good fight!

 

[bobburn]

It's not just "copying the design" it's a deliberate fraud (a fake) meant to confuse people on which slate to vote for.

 

[Monotaur]

The other fake slate is much sketchier, admittedly.

Invocation going on now. Trying to equate gay marriage with socialism. Invocation given by Father Kemberling.

 

[Monotaur]

Oh I saw speciallyblend earlier but didn't get a chance to say hi.

Where have all the GOP blacks, gays, and original Tea Partiers gone? I think we all know the answer to that. Good luck, Colorado!
