why is/was colorado considered a battleground
i think it's bc it has been one historically ? changing demographics, influx of new residents (lots of dems/progressives fleeing california housing costs, as in NM & arizona), successful progressive policies have made it more reliably blue in recent years
I just really cannot see Colorado as republican based on what I know about the state, it seems to be rather liberal so yeah

But you are most likely right, and i can see that most of the states surrounding Colorado are red states so that might also yeah..
yeah i think colorado is pretty reliably blue at this point but shit's just changing really fast in most states so it's hard to tell. i also think of them as progressive n can't rly imagine them going republican. arizona for example has been reliably republican for years and is now swinging to the left, & georgia too. 10-20 years ago i don't think anyone in their right mind would've believed the race wld be this close in georgia yk ?
