Poll: Who Will Win in HD-28?

•  
• by: Colorado Pols

With Brian Carroll‘s second and presumably final exit from the Democratic race in HD-28, November’s ballot is more or less set: political staffer Brittany Pettersen will be facing off against former Lakewood City Council candidate Amy Attwood.  

On paper, the district leans toward Pettersen as it contains about 2,000 more registered Democrats than Republicans. Not to mention the fact that former Colorado State Treasurer Cary Kennedy won the district by over 7% in her 2010 campaign.

Still, Attwood’s a known quantity in the area as a result of her failed bid for a Ward 4 council seat – a campaign which many residents, given the benefit of hindsight, probably wish she would’ve won. Pettersen’s no political newcomer, but there’s a stark difference between knocking on doors for somebody else and soliciting votes for your own campaign. Her extensive network of Denver politicos might also be less useful than the list Attwood’s built from working as Ken Summers‘ legislative aide.

We’ll be updating the Jeffco Line soon, but in the meantime, we want to know you think will win, not the candidate you hope to see as the next representative from HD-28.
