Colorado Republicans overwhelmingly voted to remove state party chairman Dave Williams by a vote of 161.66 to 12 on Saturday. Some people's votes only counted for a fraction of a full vote.

No explanation of how this voter tally worked.

Since he took over as GOP chair, Williams has attacked Republicans who don't subscribe to his views and used state party resources to support his campaign for Congress. As CBS Colorado's Shaun Boyd has reported, Williams used Colorado's Republican party's logo and reduced postage rate to send mailers attacking his opponents.

At least on this part he was doing the GOP thing correctly: grift and graft.
