Have you forgotten the election of 2014 where there was a Republican sweep in an off year election for all the state office positions and US Senate. And John Hickenlooper barely won his re-election for Governor. We will have to wait and see if in 2018 the front range voters will show up to the polls and off set the nearly 100 of rural voters who always vote. I would air on the side of caution because it probably won't be a slam dunk for the Democrats and the urban corridor if history is our guide. Urban elitism is going to have to take a good look at itself and ask does it want to hand over all its power and money to rural communities that don't share their interests.
