The Claremont Institute has established a fund to pay the expenses for a federal lawsuit against the open primary system in Colorado. This is going through their Center for Constitutional Jurisprudence, under the leadership of Dr. John Eastman.

To contribute go to https://ccjlitigation.com and designate your donation to the Colorado Open Primary Constitutional Challenge Litigation Fund.  If all Colorado citizens  who think non-party voters should not be choosing party candidates gave something, we should be able to fund this critical need for honest and reliable primaries in Colorado.

The Claremont Institute is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that relies on the support of individual donors to continue its work. Gifts to the Claremont Institute are tax-deductible. 

In 2000 the Supreme Court struck down California’s blanket primary by a 7-2 vote in a majority opinion authored by the late Justice Antonin Scalia, as an infringement on the First Amendment’s freedom not to associate.

Colorado’s Open Primary law is very similar and should also be declared an unconstitutional intrusion on a political party’s freedom not to associate. The First Amendment’s protection of the freedom to associate includes the freedom not to associate.

Should Republicans Chose Republican Candidates?

In 2016 a ballot question (Proposition 108) opened up the primary elections to unaffiliated voters, giving them the choice of voting with a Republican or Democrat ballot. Today, with more unaffiliated voters than Republicans or Democrats, more primary ballots are sent to unaffiliated voters than to voters to either party. This is not a valid way for a party to select their nominee for the general elections. 

Not going into all of the specific details of this system at this time, suffice it to say that this open primary system was unconstitutionally forced on to both major parties and last September the Republican State Central Committee unanimously voted to challenge this in Federal court. The Claremont Institute has established a fund to defray some of the expenses for this most valid legal action, as their Center for Constitutional Jurisprudence, under the leadership of Dr. John Eastman, is taking on this project.

This is a significant opportunity to set one aspect of Colorado’s election laws in proper order. If we are successful it will help set the voting systems in Colorado back onto the right track. I hope everyone will chip in to help. I will be sending them funds this week.

Canvassing to Keep the Republic
11-12-2021

Dear Colorado Republican County Chairmen,

Here I am again, banging the Election Integrity Drum. 

The 2020 elections are still in doubt, (https://mycoloradogop.org/92-colorado-s-2020-elections-not-certifiable), and the fact that the same people, equipment, and systems used for 2020 were used again in 2021 should be enough to convince every county’s Canvass Board Members to not sign to certify this election.  If we continue to simply certify their fraudulent elections when we have the authority to make them prove that the elections aren’t fraudulent, then who will stop them from continuing with the fraud?  Furthermore, who will then stop them from fraudulently “electing” more dictators rather than representatives?  Our job as Republicans is to elect OUR candidates, who will follow our platform and principles, into government offices.  If Republicans don’t demand integrity in every step of the election process, then Republicans won’t be elected, and the tyranny will grow. 

Now that the 2021 Coordinated Election is wrapping up, you and your Canvass Board Members have the honor and responsibility of verifying your county’s elections.  You are the Citizen’s representatives in the election process.  I believe that it is up to the Canvass Boards to verify that the people have voted in an election which reflects the following criteria:

1. Every eligible elector is given the opportunity to vote once.
2. No ineligible ballots are cast.
3. No ineligible votes are counted.
4. Every eligible vote is interpreted and counted once.
5. All election records and processes are transparent.
6. Every cast ballot and cast vote is anonymous.

Over the last decade, Boulder County Republicans Canvass Board Members have refused to certify 9 of 12 partisan elections because they don’t believe our current election processes can provide confidence that those criteria have been met.  https://mycoloradogop.org/96-history-bcr-canvass-2020

“To add insult to injury, the definition of ‘Ballots Cast’ was created to facilitate certifying unverifiable elections, and to placate Canvass Board members whose consciences would guide them to adhere to the intent of the certification.”  Colorado citizens have not “cast” their ballots since the 2016 Primary Election.  https://mycoloradogop.org/78-detailed-election-integrity-report

Thank you for all you do to help “Keep the Republic.”  Now more than ever, we must all stick together and demand verifiable election integrity for the future of our state and country!  If not us, who?  If not now, when?  Please visit www.MyColoradoGOP.org for more information.

Sincerely,

Peg Cage, Former Chairman, Boulder County Republicans
