Ballot Return Momentum SwingingRight Now, Right On Cue
Much is being made of the Republicans voter registration advantage in Colorados early voting, which inched from 104,000 Saturday to 106,000 on Sunday, seemingly a sign of yet another contested U.S. Senate battle tilting toward Republicans.
But election observers from Denver to Washington, DC would be wise to pay attention to another figure: that voter registration margin as a percentage of the overall vote.
As more votes come in, what was a 10-point GOP edge last week has slipped a little bit with each new early voting report from the Secretary of State, down to 9.2 percent Thursday, 9 percent Friday, 8.6 percent Saturday and now 7.9 percent Sunday.

Look at how Colorado's unemployment rate has changed during recent presidencies. This should be the easiest decision ever for Coloradans.
