Does this include transit, or only exit in CO?

If it cannot even transit outside of CO, then you *cannot* use the
Internet.  Routes on the Internet change regularly.  One day it could
pass direct across the state, the next could jump over to LA and back.
 Your only options are private lines.  point-to-point, frame relay, or
possibly MPLS with a single ISP that can guarantee data paths.  If all
the kiosks are connected to the same ISP, you may be able to negotiate
special routing with the ISP, but that is unlikely or difficult.

If your requirement is only exit, then you can build a VPN
infrastructure, where all sites that need to this data connect to a
VPN tunnel. All traffic is over private IPs only.  Then make sure you
carefully configure policies to ensure proper routing.
