Colorado Presidential Primary Bill Would Allow Independents to Vote

Republicans and Democrats on Thursday will announce a plan for a Colorado presidential primary that would allow the state's unaffiliated voters to participate. More than one-third of Colorado voters — the largest bloc — are not affiliated with a party.

Republicans and Democrats on Thursday will announce a plan for a Colorado presidential primary that would allow the state's unaffiliated voters to participate.

 
More than one-third of Colorado voters — the largest bloc — are not affiliated with a party. The legislative proposal would allow them to choose which party's primary they would wish to participate in.
 
Thirty days after the state primary, the registration would expire, said Rep. Dominick Moreno, a Democrat from Commerce City and one of the authors of the bill.
 
The measure would apply only to the presidential race. All other party caucus operations, including selecting delegates in the nomination process, would remain the same, he said.
