    One hopes John Jay Myers doesn't mind the mangling of his name (in another report). Readers should take all reports with a "grain of salt," for everything written is a matter of opinion. In my opinion, it could have moved more quickly.

    RE: Ken Wyble attended a Meetup

    "Fantastic but sorely missing the Libertarians Under 30 crowd and my favorite moment was the lifting of the censure on Paul Tiger which highlights our united front on being THE stewards of Liberty and responsible government going forward."

    Could be because younger people are turned off by the constant bickering and hating out of some of the stalwarts. I personally know 2 CO L's that attended previous Conventions and came out of it feeling the same way.

    I want to acknowledge Paul Langford for his tireless efforts to create a Libertarian Party State Convention that we can all be proud of. Thank you Paul Langford! The next time you see Paul Langford, buy him a Jack & Coke, and tell him that he did a fantastic job two years in a row showcasing the Libertarian Party of Colorado!

    It was a well organized event that ran smoothly and actually ahead of schedule. The different opinions and views aired was refreshing to see.

    My first year at the Libertarian state convention, and it was great being part of the process. I really appreciated the hard work from the nominees and the board for stepping up on behalf of the party. The materials were great. One thing I would have liked to have seen is a link to constitutional changes, planks, etc. that were presented for an up or down vote so I could have reviewed them before the day of the vote. Maybe this was out there somewhere and available but I just missed it.

    Nearly 80 folks showed up (despite what meetup says). Wow, we got lots of work done and it ran smoothly. Definitely worth the day. Thanks to everyone who put in so many hours organizing this.

    I really enjoyed the Caucus today. I got a lot out of the speaches. It was very rejuvenating to hear such liberating messages from the candidates.
