Face The State is onto another big story, uncovering facts about complaints filed against the Colorado Civil Rights Initiative – which recently qualified for the November statewide ballot.
Face The State’s report has uncovered serious issues with two of the major complaints, issues neglected in the drive-by media coverage.
On February 26, Chloe Johnson filed a complaint with Secretary of State Mike Coffman’s office alleging that she was tricked into supporting Amendment 46, also known as the Colorado Civil Rights Initiative, a ballot effort designed to end race and gender preferences in government hiring, education, and contracting. The complaint was formally dismissed by the state’s Office of Administrative Courts because Johnson never registered to vote.
Uh-oh. Face The State made another catch yesterday:
A Face The State investigation has revealed that one of the individuals alleging voter fraud against a campaign devoted to ending racial and gender preferences is a longtime liberal activist with ties to multiple organizations promoting such policies.
On April Fool’s Day, Dara Burwell spoke at a widely covered Capitol press conference, alleging that she was misled into signing a petition in support of Amendment 46, the Colorado Civil Rights Initiative, an effort certified for the November general election ballot by Secretary of State Mike Coffman, and one that seeks to abolish the use of gender and race preferences in government, education, and public hiring decisions.
Memo to the Left: You are going to have to try harder. Affirmative action isn’t going to validate misguided legal complaints against the Civil Rights Initiative.
