Colorado GOP starts battle against open primary

BY CAITLIN KIM COLORADO PUBLIC RADIO

e Colorado GOP is taking its rst step towards closing the Republican primary.

In a letter sent to the Federal Election Commission last week, the Colorado Republican State Central Committee and its new chairman Dave Williams asked for “an advisory opinion” on whether the party can “establish a legal fund to challenge the constitutionality” of Colorado’s open primary election law.

“ e Colorado Republican Committee wishes to explore a lawsuit against the State of Colorado, which would challenge the constitutionality of Proposition 108,” stated the letter, written on behalf of the party by attorneys with Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck. e legal fund would defray the costs of legal action.

In 2016, Colorado voters approved Proposition 108, which allowed una liated voters, now the state’s largest bloc, to vote in either the Republican or Democratic primary. e law does have a provision allowing a party to opt out of the open primary system and instead pick its candidates through a caucus process, but 75 percent of the members of the state central committee must support the move.

Jennifer Haptonstall close the party’s 2022 primary failed to win enough support from the central committee. e move is not surprising. Williams talked about

In 2022, individual Republicans tried to challenge the constitutionality of the law, but the case was dismissed because the court said they did not have standing, only the party would.

According to the letter, the committee chairman, Williams, would establish the fund and appoint a governing board with “ nal authority” over spending the money. “ e Fund plans to accept unlimited amounts from individuals, political committees, corporations, and labor organizations,” the letter states, and would only be used for the lawsuit.
