Colorado Republicans are cheering anti-Trump today and carrying around Cruz-brooms in anticipation of a 13-delegate sweep today after grabbing the first 21 delegates the last couple of days. The likelihood of Cruz completing the sweep is increasing, as Trump’s people are screwing up their delegate fliers which tell their people how to vote.

Trump’s folks are passing out fliers with a Cruz delegate on them:

Uh oh. Delegate #289, who is on Trump list of preferred CO delegates, is actually Ervin Krause — and bound to CRUZ. pic.twitter.com/ZnWpLPSUc6

And Trump’s fliers have the wrong delegate numbers for the names on their list, which will make it very difficult to vote, since the actual ballots will only have numbers, not names:

Seven of 26 names on Trump delegate list have incorrect numbers. Problem when ballots have no names, just numbers. pic.twitter.com/ZnWpLPSUc6 — Ryan Struyk (@ryanstruyk) April 9, 2016

Lots of problems for the Trump Keystone Cops crew:

Whoops…major errors on Trump slate. 5 delegate #’s are wrong & of those 5, 1 pledged to Cruz and 2 unpledged. pic.twitter.com/Ayr1sO6VeT

Fortunately for Trump, his folks have already given up before the voting even starts:

Spoke w/Trump CO super volunteer Becky Mizel. Said slate was her idea but “we know we’re not going to take anything out of” it.

Trump might as well give up – when the crowd cheers #NeverTrump, you know it’s not going to be a good day:

Cheers from Colorado delegates when speaker says: “America deserves a heck of a lot better than Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump.”

[Update] By noon, Trump’s people had fixed their sample ballots. Well, kind of fixed them:

So, only 3 names & numbers of delegates wrong. Not quite so bad. Errrr…. make that 4:

It’s actually worse: Four by my count. Parks, Mizel, Lambert, Jenkins. https://t.co/kE8tMe9qaT

[Update 2] Cruz finished speaking a short time ago, a normal stump speech with a lot of praise for Colorado Congressional Districts voting for his delegate slates. Reporters on-site say that the place looks like one big Cruz rally:

Some reporters feeling sorry for Trump delegates:

MSNBC chats with a Cruz delegate at the convention today:
