With the primary over and the final slate of candidates settled, we’re excited to announce the 2012 Denver Line.
As per usual, Denver’s Democrats are almost certain to win their respective bids for the state house. Even in the aftermath of last year’s tumultuous reapportionment process, nearly every single incumbent is expected to return to the Capitol with one striking exception: State Rep. Dan Kagan faces a legitimate challenge from Republican real estate investor Brian Watson. Yes, technically HD-3 is competitive this year because it no longer contains any Denver precincts, but the high profile nature of that race combined with its proximity to the Mile High City warrants its inclusion on the Denver Line. We may also handicap a few Aurora races in the future — don’t take our name so literally.
Denver District Attorney Mitch Morrissey is up for re-election this year, as is his occasional foe Senator Pat Steadman. Neither have general election opponents, so we didn’t include either race on the line.
It’s almost impossible to argue with Denver’s registration numbers, but we encourage you to try: sound off below to let us know where you think we got it wrong.
