Bush will win Colorado....BUT.....In Colorado they have a ballot initiative to split the state's electoral votes based on the percentage of people who vote for a particular candidate. This will make Colorado the third state to do this.

It looks very much like this will pass and here's the best part, IT APPLIES TO THIS ELECTION!! This means that Bush won't get the full 9 electoral votes for Colorado. It could be a 5-4 split or a 6-3 split. In either case, Bush will lose electoral votes and Kerry will gain some that he otherwise wouldn't have gotten.
