Judge: Unaffiliated voters won't be blocked from Colorado's Republican primary

追加: 2026-05-24

[00:00:00]Unaffiliated voters will be allowed to vote in Colorado's open primaries for this year. For three Republican candidates, including Scott Bottoms, who is running for governor, filed. Bottoms previously said Colorado's open primaries violate constitutional rights.

[00:00:15]A Denver district judge denied that request. I read through the lawsuit this morning. It is centered around proposition 108, which allows unaffiliated voters to vote in a party's primary election. The judge, however, said the request to change that came in too late and the group failed to show how they would be harmed by the current system.
