Rumors of Low Democratic Turnout in Colorado

There’s no concrete evidence yet, but we’re hearing from a lot of different sources that there are serious concerns about low turnout among Democrats.

It’s unclear whether or not these concerns are being noticed everywhere, or whether folks are just hearing the same rumor being repeated in different places. Here’s a snippet from an email sent out at about 4:00 today from the John Hickenlooper for Governor campaign:

ou’re probably expecting some kind of funny story from me, about how I was out early this morning meeting voters and spilled my coffee all over my handbills or was chased around by someone’s poodle while I was out door knocking.

Well, that didn’t happen — at least not yet. But there’s still three hours to go, so you never know.

But here’s something that isn’t funny. From what I’ve seen, voter turnout is lower than expected and that’s not good for our team. We urgently need you to vote, and if you’ve already voted, we need you to get your friends and family out to the polls.

Speaking of which, have you voted? If not, please click here to find your polling location.
