Colorado Representative Edward Casso (D-Thornton) has introduced HB 1012, to let independent voters vote in a partisan primary. Current Colorado law lets any independent voter vote in a partisan primary if that voter re-registers into that party at the polls on primary day, but the bill would let independent voters choose a primary ballot without having to join the party.

Will they have the organization and the money to organize a primary?
Under the current Colorado law, all primary voters are registered party members.
Under HB 1012, the state would be forcing parties to let independents vote in their primaries. That decision should be left to each party (Tashjian v. Republican Party of Connecticut).
