UPDATE: Were they not so undeserving of pity, we’d almost have some: Colorado fascist Joe Oltmann takes the mic. Oltmann & other organizers have been calling for people to occupy the grounds of the Phx Capitol until a “revote” happens. Oltmann asks how many will stick around with him. Nobody raises their hand. “I’ll be […]
Acevedo began his career in law enforcement as part of the California Highway Patrol (CHP). In 2004 the Los Angeles Times reported that Acevedo “has been investigated recently for allegedly showing nude photographs of a fellow CHP officer to other high-ranking officers while on duty. Assistant Chief Art Acevedo is the subject of a $5-million […]
Now that the 2022 election is behind us (most of us, anyway), there are a number of questions to be answered. Chief among them: Just how historically bad was Hiedi Heidi Ganahl’s campaign for Governor? Bad. Really, really bad. Like, all-time bad. In fact, we’d say that Ganahl has dethroned Bob Beauprez as the single […]
It’s been a few months since we posted one of these news roundups. Now that the election season is over, let’s Get More Smarter. If you think we missed something important, please include the link in the comments below (here’s a good example). If you are more of an audio learner, check out The Get More […]
Going into last Tuesday’s elections, Colorado Republicans thought they had hit the bottom of their years-long slide into the political abyss–a process that began in 2004 when Democrats retook the state legislature after years of Republican dominance, and then continued with only a few exceptions for over a decade before accelerating in backlash against Donald […]
This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, your hosts Jason Bane and Ian Silverii talk once again with Seth Masket, Director of the Center on American Politics at the University of Denver, to break down the massive Bluenami that overtook Colorado on Election Day. And, no, we still don’t know who won the race in […]
We haven’t seen or heard much from Mesa County Clerk and Recorder Tina Peters lately, which is a bit of a surprise given that she has plenty of time on her hands. Peters is not allowed to be anywhere near election equipment on account of breaking into her own election system in 2021, a crime […]
UPDATE: On a Thursday night before Election Day, Joe O’Dea was in Rifle, Colorado. Great to be back at Rib City in Rifle tonight. Folks are fed up with the reckless policies of Joe Biden and his yes man Michael Bennet. I’m running to fight for working Americans. I’m running to get our country […]
Democratic CD-3 candidate Adam Frisch, battling to restore the honor of the Third Congressional District after two years of freshman GOP doe in a China shop (would still break lots of stuff) Rep. Lauren Boebert, is projecting confidence going into the last few days of voting, sending out a release yesterday asking the next logical […]
As the New York Times reports in the wake of last week’s attempted assassination of Paul Pelosi, husband of Speaker of the U.S. House Nancy Pelosi: The attack on Ms. Pelosi’s husband, Paul Pelosi, on Friday, which left him with a fractured skull and appeared to be part of a planned attack on the speaker […]
You can count the number of days until the end of the 2022 election cycle on one hand. As Election Day looms, Republican Senate candidate Joe O’Dea and GOP gubernatorial no-hopeful Hiedi Heidi Ganahl are caught in a weird illogical loop of desperation and internal lies. Before we update you on the strange last days […]
Adding to a growing consensus of polling in recent weeks, the University of Colorado’s American Politics Research Lab released their latest Colorado Political Climate Survey, with numbers in line with other recent polls showing Gov. Jared Polis rapidly pulling away in the Colorado governor’s race, incumbent Sen. Michael Bennet prevailing over Republican challenger Joe O’Dea […]

For many years under the leadership of far-right editorial board chief Wayne Laugesen, who was present at the January 6th, 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol, the Colorado Springs Gazette–which has now metastasized into the Denver Gazette–has taken some of the most outrageous positions possible, frequently as a way of legitimizing the Republican Party’s lurch […]
Republicans like Pam Anderson, Heidi Ganahl, and Joe O’Dea are still trying to fool Coloradans. While Heidi Ganahl says “Joe Biden is the President,” the Denver Post revealed this weekend that Ganahl ended an interview when asked about the 2020 Election and the Big Lie. [1] When faced with similar questions, Anderson (seeking the Secretary […]
Now that Republican U.S. Senate candidate Joe O’Dea has presented himself on vengeful ex-President Donald Trump’s radar after O’Dea vowed to campaign against Trump in 2024 on national television while Trump happened to be watching, what was once grudging acquiescence to O’Dea among Trump loyalists has flipped like a switch to full-on hostility: As the […]
The editorial board of The Denver Post formally backed incumbent Democratic Gov. Jared Polis on Sunday, joining every serious newspaper in Colorado that plans to make endorsements for public office in 2022. We’d guess that supporting Polis was not a particularly difficult decision for the Post editorial board given the persistent lunacy of Republican gubernatorial nominee […]

(We have nothing to add — Promoted by Colorado Pols) Brian Peotter has a message for pro-Trump, “liberty-minded” Republicans in Colorado: “This November, tell Washington that you care more about principles than power. The Republican can’t win anyway! Don’t throw away your vote — use it to send a message.” “If you have traditional family […]
As Natalie Allison reports for POLITICO, one of two major national Republican Super PACs associated with GOP efforts to win majority control of the U.S. Senate has at last contributed some money toward efforts to help Republican Joe O’Dea defeat incumbent Democratic Sen. Michael Bennet: The question has remained for months about whether the Senate […]
