What is the only US state to turn down the Olympics?

The only US state to turn down the Olympics after being awarded the Games is Colorado, specifically the city of Denver. Denver was awarded the 1976 Winter Olympics by the International Olympic Committee in May 1970, beating out Sion, Switzerland, Tampere, Finland, and Vancouver, Canada. The bid was led by Colorado business and political leaders who promised world-class skiing and infrastructure. However, a grassroots movement called Citizens for Colorado's Future, led by State Representative Richard Lamm who later became governor, raised concerns about cost overruns, environmental damage to the Rockies, and taxpayer burden, noting that the projected $35 million cost was likely to balloon. In November 1972, Colorado voters passed a referendum that banned any state funding for the Olympics by a 60% to 40% margin, making it the only time in history that a city that won the Olympics rejected them. The IOC was forced to find a new host quickly and awarded the 1976 Winter Games to Innsbruck, Austria, which had hosted in 1964 and already had venues. This vote made Colorado famous for taxpayer resistance to the Olympics and is still cited today whenever cities debate bidding.
