2016 bore witness to one of the most unusual circumstances we’ve ever seen ensnaring a sitting Colorado legislator. Rep. Tim Leonard, Republican of Evergreen, was found in contempt of court at the end of September after repeatedly violating court orders regarding the custody of his children. According to the very few news reports available about this […]
Outgoing Sen. Laura Woods (R-Arvada). In 2013, a unified Democratic Colorado General Assembly passed a slate of gun safety bills in the aftermath of two horrific mass shooting events in the prior year: the December 2012 massacre of elementary students and teachers in Newtown, Connecticut, and especially the July 20th, 2012 killing of a dozen […]
One result of the 2016 elections in Colorado that actually closely matched pre-election forecasts was the overwhelming passage of Proposition 106, a measure establishing a process of medical aid in dying for terminally-ill patients whose diagnosis has been confirmed by at least two physicians.

Evergreen Republican Rep. Tim Leonard (HD-25), the first sitting legislator in at least 40 years to serve time in jail, traded in his orange uniform for a gray suit and a paper facemask today.

You read it here first on Colorado Pols earlier this week: Businessman Noel Ginsburg looks to be the first official Democratic candidate for Governor in 2018. According to a press release dated December 22, 2016, Ginsburg “has filed with the Secretary of State to be a candidate for Governor of Colorado in 2018.” As of this […]
And as Politico’s Madeline Conway reports, President-elect Donald Trump just figured what that means: In a series of impromptu statements about nuclear weapons, Donald Trump is threatening to upend longstanding U.S. nonproliferation policy, even as his advisers contradict him and muddy his intentions. The president-elect had alarmed and perplexed some experts and others in Washington when […]
Colorado State Treasurer Walker Stapleton, the inexplicable frontrunner for the Republican gubernatorial nomination in 2018, is mad again about PERA. From the Colorado Springs Gazette: Over the protests of Colorado’s state treasurer, the head of the state’s retirement system received a 3 percent salary increase on Tuesday—his second raise in just over a year—bringing his salary to […]
Today is the first official day of Winter; apparently all of that recent cold weather was just a rehearsal. It’s time to Get More Smarter with Colorado Pols. If you think we missed something important, please include the link in the comments below (here’s a good example). If you are more of a visual learner, check out The […]
We’ve made a change to The Big Line in the race for Governor: Businessman Noel Ginsburg, who made a fortune in the plastics industry, is apparently getting close to jumping into the 2018 race for the Democratic nomination.
