    They won’t, but Colorado should still keep him off the ballot. The ruling was clearly made in fear of chaos instead of what was correct, so they deserve chaos irregardless.

    Or at least make a show about it, like all those states did when Texas was told to let the fed agents cut the razor wire.

      Colorado should still keep him off the ballot.

      The final vote is tomorrow. It’s far too late to put him back on the ballot.

      Even then, I suspect he’ll win on write in alone. This contest is functionally over as soon as he’s got a majority of the primary delegates, and that’s likely to happen a few states after Super Tuesday, given current trends.

      So the decision is moot from a “Will Trump be the nominee” perspective.

        That is admittedly why I also said “or make a show about it”…

        I’m actually not sure if Texas actually did stop the Feds from cutting the razor wire. I actually checked and it seems like the entire story just disappeared from all news after they made a lot of noise on it.
