    From the GOP perspective, this explains why Colorado is a Democratic island

    Colorado isn’t a Democratic island. New Mexico and Arizona are also blue states. Nevada’s solid purple, regularly sending up a mix of Ds and Rs. There’s no shortage of conservatives in Colorado, either. Lauren Boebert is from Colorado, ffs. She’s got an enormous constituency of evangelical lunatic supporters and die-hard Republicans. Trump lost Colorado in 2016 by a Gary Johnson’s margin. It was straight up winnable back under Compassionate Conservative Bush Jr.

    They probably tell each other that without all the fake, mail-in ballots, Colorado would be as red as Wyoming and Utah.

    Sure. And Democrats keep insisting Texas is winnable if all the non-voters turn out, nevermind how a rising volume of overall voters only ever breaks for Republicans.

    Nevertheless, shutting down mail-in voting in Colorado won’t benefit Republicans in any meaningful way.
