Last I saw was about 1 million votes. There are about 6 million people. Not too late. Keep pounding the drum. It’s worth the fight.
Agreed, just voicing my worries, I think there are 3ish million legal voters. Who knows how many ole Jenna tried to register though 🙄

Denver Post editorial board came out against Prop 127. Not sure it matters to most voters but it may sway some.

Interesting article. I think it echoes a major concern from lots of reasonable urban/suburban voters with no real equities in hunting: Prop 127 would force a misguided, poorly written policy on CPW and Colorado. I think even folks with little exposure to hunting can see the clear anti-hunting intent in Prop 127.

I live in Fort Collins, and I have not really noticed any signs or advertisement supporting 127 but I have seen quite a few against it including a big one on I-25 driving back from DIA this morning. This is just observational evidence but hopefully it's a good omen.

I found this posted on another website. Looks like they are now insulting these wildlife conservation groups. Their true colors are coming out. Do they really care about wildlife management?

I am cautiously optimistic about this not passing.

I'm amazed looking at the Colorado, Denver, Fort Collins, etc Reddit pages. The overwhelming majority are against 127 which I wouldn't have expected from your typical Reddit demographic.

I guess RMEF, MDF, and WSF are now “dark money DC groups”. Hahaha. These folks will stop any nothing to push their anti-hunting agenda. Keep the pressure on. We can beat this. Denver Post and Denver Gazette both came out against Prop 127 this week.

I find it comical that the folks that put something on the CO ballot that was primarily funded by and organized by out of state folks have the gall to comment about national organizations fighting back against this. You idiots are the ones using national organizations and money to meddle in state politics in the first place.

Absolutely. Wayne Pacelle, CEO, and Samantha Miller, campaign director, are both employed by Animal Wellness Action/Center for a Humane Economy. They are the major donors, providing labor and funding. Based out of……. You guessed it Washington, DC.

Yeah I wonder when the last time one of the pro 127 groups was out removing old fence or when they last funded a habitat project...

These groups actually do nothing but litigate and gum up the works of policy such as the ESA that would actually work really well if the managers actually could call the shots.
