During most national election cycles, Colorado has long been known as a key battleground state. But this year Hillary Clinton is outpolling Donald Trump by a wide margin.
PBS recently reportedfrom the reddest parts of the state. They were attempting to uncover why some Coloradans were switching their votes this season.
El Paso County is experiencing divided loyalties. Eli Bremer, the former chair of the El Paso County Republican Party will vote for Trump. He said he’s always found Trump to be an interesting candidate. He added, “Interesting can be good. Interesting can be bad.” Karen McCormick was a precinct leader for Mitt Romney in 2012. She disagrees, saying for her “[Trump] doesn’t represent the party of Lincoln.” She added, “I don’t want to lower my standards to dirt level to support him just to beat Hillary Clinton. So I will be supporting her.”
