UPDATE #2: The Denver Post’s Nick Coltrain reports:
Polis was a tech entrepreneur and served on the state Board of Education before representing Northern Colorado in Congress. He won the governorship in 2018 as part of a trifecta victory for Democrats that included the state House of Representatives and Senate. The party has held that control since. This past November, Democrats defied their own expectations and that of prognosticators by not just holding the trifecta but expanding their majorities in the legislative chambers.
Legislators who introduced Polis attributed their victories to voters recognizing their record over the past four years…
“For too many people, life is simply too hard and too expensive,” Polis said. “Coloradans are counting on all of us who work in this building behind me to deliver solutions.”

UPDATE: Watch live:
We’ll be live in this space at 10:30AM for Gov. Jared Polis’ second swearing in, and updating throughout the day as the pomp, circumstance, and They Might Be Giants play out.

Nice Easter Egg but Bernie's not coming.
Windy but inspiring! We've got a great governor in COlorado.
Okay…he’s sworn in. Isn’t it about time for the 23rd ” Recall Polis because Arga Barga” people to raise their heads?
I think it is traditional to wait for the first Executive Order or bill signing in order to have something to put on the petition.
And maybe they don't want to compete with the National Western for accumulation of animal excretions.
