If you're registered with a political party you should be receiving your primary election ballot in the mail very soon. The commercials are going to increase and the fights of Norton v Buck and Bennet v Romanoff are going to get real scrappy. I look forward to normally uninvolved people expressing great inconvenience at the emotive reactions felt during their normally programmed commercial breaks.
Cry babies :'(
According to the Colorado Secretary of State, Democrat and Republican party registration numbers for the entire state of Colorado as of June is
Dems: 817,458
Reps: 855,667
Unaff: 765,849
And, as Eluning points out in the comments, the Libertarians have their own primary with nearly 8,000 registered Libs.
If you have any questions or need resources from your County Clerk & Recorder, you can find contact information here.

Closely I watched the Colorado Senate this last session and instead of actually governing with solutions, the Republicans would cry and scream about how the reason the economy was bad, was because of government. The intention, of course, behind their meaningless slogans is to encourage voters to make the overemotional jump to think well, vote 'em out! thus falling prey to the Republican lie machine and forfeiting the Democratic majority that does its best to prevent the continued death-careen that the Republicans prefer. When pressed about their proposed solution for meeting fixing the economy, Rs could only say "cut state government workers income (jobs) by 25%" which, given the fact that the state government is the largest employer in the state, such an idea is utterly counterproductive to creating a vibrant economy but WHATEVER.
Morons.
Now, about these Conservative-backed (and illegally funded??) current ballot initiatives, one Repub meme is "no debt" which, again the vulnerable voter would equate with borrowing which is in part what the "Dr Evil Amendments" 60, 61, and 101 on the ballot this Nov seek to do.
The Denver Business Journal (yes, it has the word business in it, all hail business AUM) has a piece about how, if passed, these amendments would send Colorado into another recession. Who wants that?
Well, Republicans want that. Republicans want Obama and all Democrats to fail so they can get re-elected and continue their raping and pillaging of our nations resources.
