Colorado Republicans Exceed Democrats by More Than 100,000 Partisans

Republican voter registration is now 109,000 ahead of Democrats among new and active voters (voters who have participated in most recent general election).

The Democratic challenge will be registering new and inactive voters to participate in the presidential election – an election in which Democrats thus far have been less enthusiastic about.

Unaffiliated voters are most likely to not participate in non-presidential elections and, hence, most likely to drop down to inactive status.

As of January 1, 2012, there were 2,100,000 active voters and 3,372,000 total voters in Colorado.
