Amendment 36 which proposes to change the way Colorado allocates its electoral votes from a winner take all system to a proportional representation system, is ahead (47-35) in a recent poll by the Rocky Mountain News (500 likely voters.
http://www.polstate.com/archives/006074.html#006074If passed, it might affect the Nov. election. This was pushed by Democrats who hoped to get 4 of CO 9 EV and strangely, the petition for this measure was financed by a rich Brazilian.
If Bush wins CO and the Electoral college on election night by 4 or fewer Electoral Votes, he would then lose 4 EVs when this measure was certified a few weeks later. Or if Kerry wins CO and wins by 4 or fewer EV he could then lose as well.
If you thought the 2000 recount was a battle after the election, if the CO EV affect the election look for at least 2 sets of certified electoral votes to be sent to Washington (one by the Republican Governor and legislature, one by the courts). Then it will fall to the Congress to decide which EV to count.
