Nah this one is great because if you’re unaffiliated you get to choose which primary to vote in. The majority of Colorado voters are unaffiliated, literally over 50%, so if you hate all the candidates on one side you can vote in the primary to choose the absolute worst of one of them and then the other side’s winner is all but guaranteed to win.

I couldn’t find my ballot this year so I completely failed to vote in the primary, but it was exactly who I was going to vote for. No better way to make sure no Republican wins than choosing the batshit craziest one who confessed to murdering numerous people and cutting off a cats head. If there’s one thing Coloradans care about it’s animals.
