We’re approaching the final sunset of a primary race to determine whom Colorado Democrats will choose to take on our junior senator this November. As a fifth-generation rural Coloradan, I’ve come to the conclusion the best choice is Andrew Romanoff. I hail from Yuma County which over time has grown deeper and deeper shades of […]
Colorado’s Primary Election is almost over, but before we get there, we want to know what Colorado Pols readers think will happen on Tuesday evening. Who wins, and by how much? Former Gov. John Hickenlooper or former House Speaker Andrew Romanoff? As always, we want to know what you think will happen here — not what you […]
MONDAY UPDATE: Our sincere condolences. My father, Marvin Romanoff, was born March 21, 1940 in Schenectady, NY. He loved crossword puzzles & Chinese food, science fiction & chocolate shakes—and his grandkids most of all. He spent 24 years on the Franklin County Municipal Court. I love my dad & will miss him forever. 💔 pic.twitter.com/AIoWDpnu1K […]
This is something. Protesters have taken over 225 here in Aurora. pic.twitter.com/OLIQzMslaq — Kevin Beaty (@KevinJBeaty) June 27, 2020 Aurora Sentinel: An extensive protest against the death of Elijah McClain quickly jolted from peaceful to disorderly and back again Saturday when Aurora police deployed pepper spray against rowdy protesters they said were throwing rocks and […]
UPDATE: This lede from The Washington Post summarizes the story well: President Trump insists on the campaign trail that he wants to protect insurance coverage for people with preexisting conditions. His legal team just told the Supreme Court otherwise. —– NBC News reported late last night, and the rude shock despite this being a fully […]
In another edition of our long-running feature, “At Least They’re Not Your Legislator,” we take you to Scottsdale, Arizona, to meet one of the most tone-deaf dipshit politicians you’ll ever come across. As The Washington Post explains: Taking the stage Wednesday at an anti-mask rally in Scottsdale, Ariz., Councilman Guy Phillips (R) appeared in a […]
Six days before an unexpectedly vigorous Democratic U.S. Senate primary comes to an end next Tuesday, a hard-hitting story for underdog challenger Andrew Romanoff from the Colorado Sun today recounts in detail the problem we’ve been talking about in this space for months now: although Romanoff’s campaign in 2020 has run hard to the left […]
We’ve been following the upstart congressional campaign of Lauren “Yosemite Samantha” Boebert, owner of the Shooters Grill in Rifle who is also known as the “Beto Mom” after clapping back on camera at former Democratic presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke on the always-lively subject of taking yer guns, from its humble beginnings, through high-visibility court battles […]

At a rally in Tulsa on Saturday, referring to testing more Americans for COVID-19 in order to control the pandemic, Trump said, “When you do testing to that extent, you’re going to find more people; you’re going to […]
The 2020 election keeps looking worse for Colorado Republicans. Republicans need a net gain of at least two seats in 2020 to take control of the State Senate, but before they can even think about a Senate majority, they absolutely must defend GOP-held seats in SD-8 (Carbondale-ish), SD-25 (Adams County), and SD-27 (Arapahoe County). Republicans have Sen. Bob Rankin […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) By Sean Price, Colorado Times Recorder. As events protesting police brutality continue across the nation, two Colorado Republicans insinuated on Facebook that the violence — the instances of looting or rioting — at some of these protests did not occur randomly and was not incited by the police presence. They implied, […]
UPDATE #3: And here’s Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Denver): Right now, Cory Gardner, the National Republican Senatorial Committee, and Andrew Romanoff are all running attack ads against @Hickenlooper. It’s clear who Republicans fear in November—and rightly so. pic.twitter.com/5aRCQMDH7o — Michael Bennet (@MichaelBennet) June 19, 2020 —– UPDATE #2: Romanoff’s negative ad has even convinced Gov. Jared Polis […]
Brought to our attention via local political reporter Sandra Fish, here’s a mailer that hit yesterday in the increasingly nasty HD-22 primary pitting incumbent Rep. Colin Larson against the previous holder of the seat, former Rep. Justin Everett–Everett having given up the seat in 2018 after losing the GOP Treasurer primary to general election loser […]
There are 12 days to go until the end of the 2020 Primary Election in Colorado. Here’s where things stand this afternoon in the marquee race for the Democratic U.S. Senate nomination. Andrew Romanoff’s campaign is touting (touting?) the results of an internal poll showing that it trails former Gov. John Hickenlooper by a 12-point margin. […]
As Ernest Luning of the Colorado Springs Gazette reports, Casper Stockham, a perennial placeholder Republican candidate who has run a couple of times in Denver’s deep blue CD-1 and more recently in a losing primary bid vs. Steve House in CD-6, has come up with a great reason to keep running for office despite never […]
The June 30 Election is two weeks away, and Republicans are spending a lot of time and effort…in the Democratic Primary for U.S. Senate. Both the Gardner campaign and the @NRSC have new anti-Hickenlooper ads out this morning. The NRSC ad debuted in Denver this morning. The NRSC had planned to go on air after […]

It seems like an eternity ago, but it was only in mid-March that the Colorado General Assembly adjourned to keep members and the public safe from the global COVID-19 pandemic. On May 26, the legislature reconvened to conclude the business of the 2020 session as quickly and as […]
Politico helps us sort through another historic victory for LGBT Americans at the U.S. Supreme Court today: The Supreme Court ruled Monday that the key federal law prohibiting discrimination in the workplace protects gay, lesbian or transgender employees from being disciplined, fired or turned down for a job based on their sexual orientation. Two of […]
AP reported via KDVR FOX 31 late last week and the local similarities oblige us to mention: The American Civil Liberties Union called for state Sen. Steve Huffman to step down from office Thursday following his comments that were made during a hearing for a resolution to declare racism a public health crisis. Huffman caused […]
No Republican candidate stepped forward to challenge the lone Democrat, Nolbert Chavez, who’s running to represent a swath of suburbs outside of Denver on the University of Colorado Board of Regents, the governing body of the university. So the GOP has almost certainly handed the seat to Chavez in November. Republicans wouldn’t be expected to […]
In today’s The Spot newsletter, Denver Post political reporter Alex Burness offers some useful context as the battle over Senate Bill 163, legislation to improve Colorado’s bottom-in-the-nation childhood immunization rates, comes to a successful conclusion for proponents: [I]t has taken a Democrat-controlled General Assembly two years to muster support to pass a bill that allows […]
At least once during the 2019 legislative session, State Rep. Lori Saine (R-Firestone) — who is also the House Minority Caucus Chair — delivered a questionable history lesson during a floor speech in the House of Representatives. In 2019, Saine talked about how Christopher Columbus really wasn’t such a bad guy. On Thursday, Saine delivered […]

Marketing is an exciting career in a rapidly evolving industry. While traditional marketing still has a place in the world, many companies are going partially or completely digital. Companies that specialize strictly in digital marketing have sprung up and are helping businesses grow in ways that were unheard of a decade ago. SEO Companies that […]
The Denver Post’s Bruce Finley reported yesterday on a green light from GOP Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to allow passage of the Great American Outdoors Act, legislation to permanently fund the Land and Water Conservation Fund and provide cash to chip away at the huge backlog of maintenance and other projects on public lands: […]
