Going Forward in Colorado

6:11pm 11/13/12 from Jeff Kelly to

Hello everyone,

First, thank you to all of you that have participated in our efforts thus far. Second, for those who joined our efforts late in the election cycle, please accept my ‘welcome’, and also please forgive my late response to your applications and emails.

Preparation for Election day completely consumed my time and the resulting effects are finally wearing off enough such that I can get on with necessary business.

We have MUCH work to do in order to clean up the Colorado election process.  It appears that there are a LOT of people in Colorado without any sense of decency or honor, and we must fight against their influence in our country’s elections.

On election day, our Colorado command center received many calls from Poll Watchers and voters alike.

Complaints:

  • Voters who were told they had already voted and could only submit a provisional ballot
  • Voters who never received or received badly formatted mail-in ballots
  • Unauthorized people in the polling location
  • Voter intimidation by large groups
  • Electioneering within the 100 foot perimeter
  • Videotaping within the polling location
  • Large numbers of people being directed to provisional ballots
  • Poll Watchers who were restricted to areas unable to witness the election process
  • Poll Watchers who were not allowed to hear voter names in order to perform their party’s Get Out The Vote efforts
  • Mail-in ballots being processed without 2-party election judge oversight
  • Poll Watchers not allowed into the ballot processing facility (lawsuit underway)

All of these items must be addressed with our County Clerks, and followed up by attorneys as necessary.

If you are able and willing to assist between election cycles in any of the below fashions, please let me know:

  • County Leader
  • Team Leader (election or research)
  • Volunteer Coordinator
  • Data Research
  • Legislative Advocacy

We have a long road ahead of us, so we need to get started early.

Thanks again for your assistance in fighting for integrity in Colorado’s election processes.

Sincerely,

Jeff Kelly
Colorado Voter Protection
Colorado Leader, True the Vote
