Editorial: Colorado’s unaffiliated voters can prevent extremists from taking office

Colorado’s unaffiliated voters will wield a tremendous amount of power this primary election and should use their collective electoral sway to protect democracy, repudiate conspiracies and foster a healthy two-party system in this state.

We can come together to promote a country where there are stark differences on crucial policy issues – abortion rights, gun rights, social programs, tax rates , energy development, land and nature conservation – but where we still harbor a fundamental understanding that we are all in this together, peacefully, as a free country ruled by the people, for the people.

U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert was fully on board with former President Donald Trump’s disastrous attempts to remain in office despite losing both the popular and the Electoral College vote in 2020. On Jan. 6, she tweeted out, “Today is 1776” before voting not to certify the electors from Arizona and Pennsylvania.

Boebert didn’t care and still doesn’t care, saying in a debate just this month that she was “proud that the first major action that I took in the House of Representatives was to vote to not certify some of the Electoral College results from the 2020 elections.”

I will vote. So should you.

Hahaha. Yeah radicalism... Thats what everyone cares about. Not gas and food prices. shhh, just hate your nieghbor while we force feed you propaganda so you dont realize you are getting Effed by always voting blue no matter who!

The__Snowman Yes, vote out the radical extremist Democrats!!!

Openly encouraging election fraud. Nice. The next few years are going to be very, very hard for you, Commiecrats. I don't feel sorry for you now, and I won't then.

given that there are no actual primaries for the Dems all that will happen is 'unaffiliated' will vote for the most radical in order to ensure the Dems an easy win.

As an unaffiliated voter, I am voting based on kitchen table issues (gas, food, rent, security, human rights, etc.)

There is no guarantee that it will prevail if a candidate who pledges to override election results take office. Preserve democracy? 🤣🤣 If I were Oz and Mastriano, I wouldn't bother campaigning. I'd take a nap and just let the Democrats run the country the way they've been doing it for the past few years and then make a victory speech in November.
