You expect Hickenlooper, Bennet who got almost one million votes to bend to the will of 72,000 Sanders supporters?

Had CO been a primary state where there's 1 million registered Democrats of all colors mostly Hispanic and who are accustomed to mail ballots would not have gone Hillarys' way?

Instead a paltry 127,000 people participated because caucuses are more disenfranchising than anything that you all claimed happened in NY or any other primary state X 10000000000

Is making Colorado a red-state again your ultimate goal?
