McInnis Strong in El Paso County

  • 21 Comments
  • by: gopstudent

(Maybe we’ll promote one such advertisement post a week for kicks, we pick (no emails please) – promoted by Colorado Pols)

Scott McInnis’ pro-military, pro-growth position on Pinon Canyon and the Fort Carson army base expansion has earned him significant support throughout El Paso County.  McInnis picked up endorsements from some influential and well-respected county leaders including:

• Commissioner and Chairman Jim Bensberg

• Commissioner Wayne Williams

• Coroner Dr. Robert Bux

• Sheriff Terry Maketa

• Treasurer Sandra Damron

• Surveyor Chris Brewer

• Assessor Mark Lowderman

• 4th Judicial District Attorney Dan May

Commissioner Sallie Clark has also endorsed McInnis and is serving as his county chair.

This does not look good for McInnis’ GOP primary opponents, as El Paso has a pretty healthy chunk of primary votes.

  1. Joey Scarbury comes to mind:

    Look at what’s happened to me

    I can’t believe it myself

    Suddenly I’m on top of the world

    Shoulda been somebody else

    CHORUS:

    Believe it or not I’m walking on air

    I never thought I could feel so free

    Flying away on a wing and a prayer

    Who could it be?

    Believe it or not it’s just me

    Just like the light of a new day

    It hit me from out of the blue

    Breaking me out of the spell I was in

    Making all of my wishes come true

    Who could it be?

    Believe it or not it’s just me

  2.    This is the same county that gave the world Charlie Duke, Maryanne Tebedo, (Rev.) Ted Haggard, Doug Lamborn, Doug Bruce, and Dave Schultheis.

      They do know how to pick ’em.

      1. Darn. That’s what I get for logging in under the wrong sockpuppet.

        I would appreciate it if pols would delete the above sufimarie comment. I would like to maintain my anonymity.

        Toodles!

  3. From “endorsements” to “strong?”

    Eight people endorse McInnis.  That means he has 8 votes.  If nobody’s lying, but these are, after all, politicians.

    Give me some other evidence of “strong.”

  4. He’s got the Treasurer and the Surveyor.  

    Don’t forget that he also has the County Commissoner who wants to campaign across Colorado with Bill Ritter to raise the gas tax:

    Can we infer from the endorsement that McInnis also supports a hike in the gasoline tax?
