Has it also moved its Presidential primary to last year?

Helps someone.

Among the field, Bernie endorsed Polis.

Biden came in an endorsed a bunch of other Dems, but not Polis

The BAN article on the endorsement is a placeholder until I find something more official (that isn't paywalled, like the Denver post appears to be)

One update to this race, Castro is not on the ballot.

From the results page

Michael Bennet, Pete Buttigieg, John K. Delaney and Amy Klobuchar officially withdrew as candidates for the Democratic Party. Under Colorado law, any votes cast for candidates who formally withdraw after ballots are printed are invalid and shall not be counted

considering how vote-by-mail heavy Colorado is, I wonder how the delegate math changed as a result of somebody making the Buttigieg/Klobuchar campaigns aware of Colorado law

Generally candidates "suspend" their campaigns rather than officially withdraw, but it's a moot point since none of those candidates reached the 15% threshold so votes for them wouldn't count toward delegates anyway.

Colorado is sorta unique in invalidating votes for people who specifically withdraw.

The delegate math i'm talking about here is everybody else. If Texas just tossed all the Buttigieg/Klobuchar votes, then Bloomberg would have enough votes to be over 15% statewide (he's at 14.4% at the moment).

So there might be a result on the congressional district level in CO where if Buttigieg/Klobuchar votes were counted, Warren or Bloomberg wouldn't be over 15%.

They send out the mail in ballots about a month in advance. If you mailed it in and a candidate dropped you couldn't revote.

But if you didn't mail it in and but marked say Cory Booker, you could cross out Cory Booker and vote for validly for one of the remaining candidates. Then mail in or drop off you ballot.
