Comments on: Primary day in Colorado, Nevada, and Connecticut http://michellemalkin.com/2008/08/12/primary-day-in-colorado-nevada-and-connecticut/ news and commentary from a conservative perspective Tue, 14 Feb 2012 12:36:37 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Jvette http://michellemalkin.com/2008/08/12/primary-day-in-colorado-nevada-and-connecticut/comment-page-1/#comment-405279 Jvette Wed, 13 Aug 2008 16:32:03 +0000 http://michellemalkin.com/?p=13313#comment-405279 I proudly voted in our primary yesterday because my son voted for the first time with me. When he was little, I would always take him with me when I voted and he was very excited to vote. Most of the votes were on non-partisan judges and he skipped over those only voting in two races. When he said he didn't know enough to vote on the judges, I told him don't worry, I would just mark his sample ballot for him. He was having none of that though. So, I'm so proud he voted but I didn't get my second vote like I wanted. :) I proudly voted in our primary yesterday because my son voted for the first time with me.

Regardless whether bho or jmccain is elected POTUS, taxes are going up. We have to have enough conservative representation in both houses to stop the tax increases due to their views on global warming and immigration.

On the Dem side, too soon to tell if that jack*ss Polis was able to buy/smear his way to a win.

I mentally flipped a coin and voted Armstrong. Only problem with Coffman winning the bid will cause him to leave the only state-wide office held by the GOP, and put an unelelcted Dem appointee in charge of the election process, eaving it wide open to partisan manipulation. Coffman should have finished his term, and fired up for a run at the shale-oil obstructing flip-flopping open-borders Sen Salazar. But either way, we are OK. I am hoping that Shafroth pulls it off up in CO-2 in Boulder. I loathe Jared Polis, who is a rabid homosexual activist and has been the weasel behind some of the worst smears the state has seen, hiding behind 527's that he funds to run the smears. He is fundamentally arrogant and dishonest, and he is still arguing to pull the troops out immediately (fool). Joan Fitzgerald is just another Liberal Dem Pol. Shafroth seems to be the only one up there willign to at least listen and learn before he acts. Lucky to live in CO-6, Tancredo retiring, and Armstrong or Coffman will do fine as a replacement.

there is, however, Initiative 100 in Denver, which would:

* The initiative would require police to impound the car of any driver found to be driving without a license.

* The car would be impounded unless the driver could provide “convincing corroborating identification, vehicle registration, or a valid driver’s license.”

* A driver with a foreign license who cannot prove he or she is in the country legally would have his or her car impounded.

The Dem-controlled City Council opposed the measure 10-1, and we’ll see what the voters decide tonight.

I’ll keep you updated.

No heated primary battles for the open Senate seat, but the Dem primary in CD-2 and the GOP primaries in CD-5 and CD-6 will determine the next representative from those districts, as the respective parties hold nearly insurmountable majorities.

When I think about Nevada politics, I just have to laugh, we have a governor having trouble getting his ex out of the mansion, and an embarassing judge falling asleep & buying dinners for jurors, and still fighting 11 complaints, wanting to know why the voters won't vote for her anymore... (We WISELY still elect judges!) We modified the constitution to force term limits, and 23 of them just found out, whining, threatening, posturing... (bunch of crying prima-donnas...)

Incumbent Christine Gregoire(D), despite her ability to raise money far longer than opponent Dino Rossi(R), she has barely more cash on hand than he does. Her dinner with Michelle Obama barely helped. They are in a dead heat in the polls. If there are any fellow WA residents here, please make sure you vote next Tuesday. Call for an absentee ballot if you have to. Don’t forget, the WA primary is Tuesday 8/19.
