If you are still holding on to a ballot for the 2025 election, which ends on Tuesday at 7:00 pm, remember that it is far too late to drop that ballot in the mail. Ballots must be received by the county clerk before 7:00 pm on Tuesday, November 4 — postmarks don’t count. For a list of […]
(The drama llama strikes the House GOP mini-minority once again — Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder Colorado state Rep. Stephanie Luck (R-Penrose) will not run for reelection next year. Speaking at the Fremont County GOP monthly meeting last night, Luck cited the need to spend more time with her […]
(Moths to the electoral flame — Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder Earlier this month the Colorado Title Board set the title for Initiative 149, “Right to Life from Conception.” The initiative is the latest personhood effort from Angela Eicher and Faye Barnhart of Brush, who have consistently submitted anti-abortion ballot […]
The Colorado Secretary of State’s office has released the first ballot return numbers for the 2025 election: For as much as Republicans complain about mail balloting, it’s pretty clear that Coloradans love the process. All of 62 people statewide have voted in person thus far. One of the more interesting set of numbers comes from […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder On Wednesday, a panel of top Colorado healthcare executives warned that federal cuts to Medicaid, under the so-called Big Beautiful Bill, will affect not only Medicaid recipients but Colorado’s wider health care system, pushing up costs and the number of uninsured people across the […]
Actually, as Ernest Luning reports for the Colorado Springs Gazette’s political blog, go ahead and look because it’s objectively newsworthy: Colorado Springs Democrat Jessica Killin, an Army veteran and former chief of staff to second gentleman Doug Emhoff, raised more than $1 million in the initial quarter of her campaign to challenge Republican U.S. Rep. […]
As Cassandra Ballard reports for the Aurora Sentinel, Aurora’s headline-hoarding far-right city councillor Danielle Jurnisky’s latest cry for attention, a recall campaign she initiated against Arapahoe County District Attorney Amy Padden, will not move forward after Jurinsky and her usual-suspect GOP attorney Suzanne Taheri informed the Secretary of State that they don’t have the signatures: […]
(Nonpartisan no more — Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder Municipal elections in Aurora are supposed to be non-partisan, but while Aurora’s elections are many things, non-partisan is not one of them. Last week, Aurora City Councillor Danielle Jurinsky and her slate of Republican-backed candidates held a rally at the […]
(Republished under Creative Commons License by Colorado Pols) by Chase Woodruff, Colorado Newsline September 29, 2025 Colorado voters will be asked this fall to weigh in on two ballot measures concerning the state’s free school meals program, the only statewide contests in the 2025 off-year election. Propositions LL and MM were referred to the ballot […]
Back in 2022, GOP Sen. Barb Kirkmeyer was running for Congress in Colorado’s then brand-new and closely divided CO-08 with no apologies about one of the wackier points in her long record in elected office representing deep red Weld County, helping organize in 2013 a proposal for Weld and several other lightly-populated rural Colorado counties […]
There isn’t time in the news cycle to take note of every ad that goes up in America’s hottest U.S. House race, Colorado’s ultra-swing CO-08 featuring America’s Most Vulnerable Incumbent™ Rep. Gabe Evans, but when it’s a timely, hard-hitting, and (most importantly) well-funded ad campaign like this latest offering from the House Majority Forward PAC, […]
Over the weekend, MSNBC broke the latest problematic news for the “most transparent administration in American history”–a story that in any other administration would have ended in federal bribery charges, but because border czar Tom Homan is tight with Donald Trump, no such legal oversight apparently applies: The federal investigation was launched in western Texas […]
(Very fine Libertarians — Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder Leaders of the Colorado Republican and Libertarian parties held a joint public discussion on the Twitter Spaces platform last week. Billed as a “Special Session Recap,” the online event drew a few hundred listeners curious to hear the state chairs […]
Four years ago, then-Republican gubernatorial candidate Heidi Ganahl was on the run from inquiring reporters after a questionably lengthy campaign “pre-launch” period, during which the independent expenditure campaign operating on Ganahl’s behalf could money up while Ganahl carried out a “podcast tour” of the state that served as a campaign tour in all but name. […]
Send us a message! Really! This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, cutting taxes is bad, actually, and the State Legislature is about to go cut another billion dollars from the state budget because of it. Then, do you enjoy friend of the pod Kyle Clark’s innovative evening news show, microgiving campaigns, and refusal to let the […]
President Donald Trump’s lengthy Truth Social screed yesterday vowing to lead “a movement” to abolish mail-in ballots, which have proven to be secure and popular in Colorado for over a decade, took place in the context of a wave of federal scrutiny and alleged attempted illegal meddling against Colorado county clerks and Secretary of State […]
We’re taking the rare step of posting the text of President Donald Trump’s wild and wacky screed early this morning presumably in response to a headline about Jeffrey Epstein he didn’t like, to ensure that search engines capture every word of it for posterity: I am going to lead a movement to get rid of […]
UPDATE: Rep. Jason Crow posts this update from outside the Aurora ICE detention center, where he and colleagues were apparently allowed in unlike previous visits: Today, I led a Congressional oversight visit to Aurora’s ICE facility. We will not be deterred from doing our jobs, and that’s exactly why we made this visit today. Ensuring […]
UPDATE: Jesse Paul of The Colorado Sun makes the same point about unserious Republicans in the legislature: —– We knew it was coming after Congressional Republicans passed President Trump’s “big, beautiful, bullshit budget bill” last month, and here it is: Another special legislative session. As Seth Klamann reports for The Denver Post: For the third […]
We don’t normally find much credible to cite over at the conservative website Complete Colorado, once colloquially known as Colorado Drudge before the world forgot who Matt Drudge ever was, but a story from the weekend by right-wing paid poison pen Sherrie Peif did catch our attention–a piece ostensibly reporting on, but without much subtlety […]
After narrowly losing the recent election for Colorado Republican Party vice-chair to former Rep. Richard Holtorf, Douglas County Republican activist and donor of some significance Mark Hampton (no, not the husband of actress Christina Ricci) remains displeased with that result and the general direction of the state party, explaining his loss to the also dissentious […]
Ernest Luning of the Colorado Springs Gazette’s political blog reported Friday on new National Journal rankings of the top 2026 U.S. House races, and with the exception of Rep. Don Bacon’s opening swing seat in Nebraska the hottest race in America is expected to be Colorado’s Eighth Congressional District, where MAGA faithful freshman Rep. Gabe […]
Embed from Getty Images A major story that broke last week in the Washington Post and then significantly expanded upon by the Denver Post last Friday has gone mostly quiet this week, but that could just be temporary as questions continue to swirl about Jeff Small, a principal with the Republican consultant firm 76 Group […]
As the Denver Post’s Seth Klamann reports, the story that broke this week in the Washington Post about Republican political consultant Jeff Small’s rebuffed approaches to Republican county clerks to permit outside access to voting equipment, a la convicted former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, is taking a turn towards something closer to extortion and […]
(Transparency* — Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder Last week, Congressman Jeff Crank (R-CO) told a radio show host he wanted to see transparency in the Epstein case. [Tuesday], he, along with the rest of Colorado’s Republican delegation, voted against making those files public. Across the political aisle, there have been […]
