More on Gwyn Green's Resignation

  • 8 Comments
  • by: Colorado Pols

From The Denver Post:

Green mentioned a few local leaders as potential replacements, including former House District 23 chairman Max Tyler, Golden Mayor Jacob Smith and Lakewood Mayor Bob Murphy.

Jefferson County Democratic Party chairwoman Ann Knollman said no formal applications have been filed nor a date scheduled for an appointment committee. She said people are also discussing failed Jefferson County Commission candidate Jason Bane, who won more votes than any other Democrat before him.

Smith has already sent out an email to constituents saying that he will not run to fill Green’s seat. Of all the seats that have turned over recently, this is the first one with real implications in 2010 (it’s not like a Republican is going to win Peter Groff’s seat in Denver).

  1. I believe he has a very solid chance to pick up the appointment … if the Post is right and he lives in the district.

    I recall he’s a family guy that narrowly lost a County Commission seat in 2008.

  2. they’re droppin like flies … the failure to execute and manage in this case was just so crystal clear.

    The news that Marsella is going to the private sector comes at a time when RTD is grappling with a large deficit between revenues and costs to build the FasTracks light rail system.

    The budget gap to build the regional transit system has now grown to over $2 billion, and the agency is considering asking the public to approve a .4 percent sales-tax increase to finish all phases of the project by the original 2017 completion dates.

    I’m a thinkin’ that Bill Vidal or Ed Tauer will be a good candidates to replace him, certainly a lot better positioned then that loaf of a pol-gadfly Randy Pye.


    “Clearly things will go on, but I’m concerned.

    Rep. Frank McNulty, R-Highlands Ranch, touched on the agency’s recent budget troubles.

    “Hopefully the board will see it fit to pick a new executive director that will work well with the legislature, keep their priorities in line with funding, have realistic funding expectations and the numbers will match the revenues. Hopefully the new director will lead us in a responsible direction regarding mass transit.”

  3. ….Ramey Johnson will become a Democrat and seek appointment to this seat!  After all, it was Republican Bob Schaffer who cost her re-election to this seat a few years back.
