CO Congressional District 5 partial results in

Last night I learned and was asked to keep this quiet until now but the Obama campaign in El Paso County did its job regardless of all the obstacles, delays, long lines, computer snafu's, threat of towing, Sun, wind, and whatever....

Those elected as National Delegates: Mike Maday, Ben Tabor (the 18 year old) and Lynn Johnson. Elected as an alternate was Jason DeGroot (also an under 35 year old youth). Obama garnished 310 to 144 votes from the floor. (Originally Obama had registered an even greater percentage but because of the delay and threat of towing where delegates and alternates left the percentage fell back to 68.28% to 31.71%. Going in the Obama campaign had a 69% advantage.)I am still trying to get the precise seating of the number of alternates so I can personally thank them for enduring such an ordeal.

Tomorrow expect the results of the State Convention for volunteers are working through the day up in Denver to count those ballots. Also for CD5, Jennifer Trujillo-Sanchez won the Presidential Elector position.
