1. We also don't have registration advantage in CO, unlike quite a few other states.

Hopefully Gary Johnson is doing well over there.

2. But polls have shown Obama lead regardless

with greater R sample so the independents and/or some repubs must be breaking for Obama.

3. Great point!

6. I heard Mormons were lying to polls that they were voting for Obama

To rig the polls and get him to have less resources in their states

Don't know if it is true--just something I heard

4. My wish would be that the CO ground game would kick into overdrive

It's still early enough to get souls to the polls and win it in Colorado. Swing state trends indicate, the more voters who show up, the more it favors Obama-Biden.

5. Polling seems to indicate that unaffiliated breaks heavy in CO.

I believe it is either 2:1 or 3:1

8. The Polling Phone Calls Are Non-Stop

First, I've never had this many poll calls in my life. I've hung up on the automated ones and politely told humans, my vote is none of their business!

Why can't Colorado just always be blue?

9. I'm in Denver and haven't had one

polling call ... not one. I'm 56 and not a new voter but I did go to a cell phone only several years ago. Other people I've talked to in passing haven't received polling calls either. Don't get me wrong, I'm really grateful. It's just kind of weird ... I wonder how accurate these polls really are.

10. Just came from a client's home. Robocalls were nonstop.

Whether they were for one side or the other, this is unacceptable. I feel sorry for you people. Didn't realize how annoying the art of calling voters has become.

FYI. Everyone I know who uses the VOIP MagicJack get only a few calls, if at all. Not a sales speech. Just an observation.

12. GOTV done.

I voted today in Denver.

The Repubs are not going to vote for Rmoney, but probably Gary Johnson as about 25% of them are Paulbots.
