Possible Gop dirty tricks in Colorado?

Just got a text message from someone i don’t know stating they noticed my colorado voter registration was removed and that they offered to re-register me. I knew i had been removed but caught that in july and took care of this myself. I also verified i am active just now on the Colorado Secretary of State website. Just curious if this is a republican dirty trick.

to reply that I am or am not registered, have emailed me offers to send registration form or something of that nature. So, I think you need to read closely. Some groups may be legit (and unless you are a registered CONFIDENTIAL voter as I am, the campaigns get voter registration lists) that they can cross check against various other databases.

He got caught suborning perjury during the caucus process and he learned his politics from Dick Cheney. Why would we expect anything but sleazy?

That said, it could be completely innocent. But this sure isn't the time to let our guard down.
