Hot on the heels of last week’s contentious text blast from supporters of the school voucher Amendment 80 which falsely (to put it mildly) suggested the measure has the support of the state’s largest teacher’s union the Colorado Education Association, this weekend another misleading text blast went out–this time with a disclaimer identifying the source […]
The 2024 election isn’t over quite yet, but at least one Republican politician in Colorado is already looking ahead to 2026. State Sen. Mark Baisley (R-Roxborough Park) is apparently looking at running for the state’s top job in 2026, when Gov. Jared Polis will be term-limited. As Ernest Luning notes via the social media website […]
TUESDAY UPDATE: Denver-based Blitz Canvassing sends the word out to their crew: DO NOT talk to the press about anybody scamming Elon Musk, claiming “disgruntled” former employees are “conspiring with reporters who want to elect Kamala Harris.” —– A story from the UK Guardian’s Hugo Lowell over the weekend could have serious implications for one […]
As the Pueblo Chieftain’s James Bartolo reports, Democratic CO-03 candidate Adam Frisch just picked up a significant endorsement that could help swing voters in the district’s largest population center make up their minds: Pueblo Mayor Heather Graham, a registered Republican, is endorsing Democratic candidate Adam Frisch in Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District race. Graham told the […]
It’s that time again to ask readers of Colorado Pols about what’s going to happen when the votes are tallied. (Here’s Poll #1, Poll #2, and Poll #3) As we’ve noted many times, our readers have been oddly accurate in predicting outcomes over the years; while these polls are completely unscientific, we think the results […]
The Denver Post’s Sunday front page was dominated by the paper’s profiles of the competing candidates in Colorado’s most competitive congressional race in CO-08, a race expected to help decide the majority in the closely-divided U.S. House. Both worthwhile reads–here’s reporter John Aguilar’s profile of incumbent Democratic Rep. Yadira Caraveo–but it’s Seth Klamann’s story on […]
As Colorado Newsline reported Monday, the failed pretender to the position of Colorado Republican Party chairman Eli Bremer conceded final defeat in his months-long quest to unseat chairman Dave “Forever Brandon” Williams by withdrawing the lawsuit to determine the question that was set to begin this week. Bremer’s stand-down comes after an El Paso County […]
It seems that the closer Republicans get to the end of the 2024 election, the more we return to the end of the 2020 election. It’s critical to understand why this is happening. As Talking Points Memo reports, Republican Vice Presidential candidate JD Vance finally gave a straight answer to a question he’s been asked about […]
For a few weeks now, we’ve been tracking the bizarre story of mailers showing up in two Colorado congressional districts — CO-03 and CO-08 — that are paid for by the Arizona Republican Party. This is a strange tactic that we had never seen before in Colorado until recently. We’re not sure it’s legal, and […]
UPDATE: Statement from the Colorado Education Association: Proponents of Amendment 80, a deceptive ballot initiative claiming to be about protecting school choice, are continuing their efforts to mislead voters by falsely claiming that Colorado Education Association (CEA) President Kevin Vick is supportive of the ballot initiative. In a mass text sent to voters statewide, proponents […]
As readers who have been following the summerlong controversy over wildly exaggerated election-year rumors that the city of Aurora has been “conquered” by migrant gangs are aware, much of the story concerns several apartment buildings operated by one property management company CBZ Management, a company that has been out of compliance with city code on […]
After months of trying very hard to portray himself as “normal Republican candidate guy,” the real Gabe Evans is being revealed to the world just in time for voters to make their decision in CO-08. Today in The New York Times, reporter Annie Karni highlights the Republican candidates for Congress across the country who are election […]
Among the 14 statewide measures Colorado voters are working through on this year’s ballot is Proposition 127, which would ban the hunting of mountain lions, lynx, and bobcats, with exceptions for self-defense or defending livestock. It’s not a fight in which we in this space have a dog or a cat, but as FOX 31 […]
(Republished from Colorado Newsline under Creative Commons license) by Sara Wilson, Colorado Newsline October 14, 2024 A lawsuit over the leadership of the Colorado Republican Party has been dismissed, leaving Dave Williams as the chair of the state party after a group of party members tried to vote him out. The lawsuit in El Paso […]
As veteran reporter Susan Greene reports for the Aurora Sentinel, there’s fresh controversy brewing in the wake of last Friday’s visit by Donald Trump to the northernmost reaches of the city of Aurora to promulgate his fictional portrayal of the city and the whole state of Colorado as a war zone overrun by “army of […]
Donald Trump might be running short on marbles. Vice President Kamala Harris has been urging Americans to take a closer look at rallies held by the Republican Presidential nominee — including last Friday’s appearance at the Gaylord Resort in Aurora, Colo. — to view firsthand how the 78-year-old meanders from topic to topic in exceedingly […]
On Saturday afternoon in downtown Denver, a band of somewhere around 50 men wearing face masks and the loosely matching uniforms of the fascist ultranationalist group Patriot Front arrived on RTD trains to march around the city protesting the “unrestricted and unmitigated invasion” of Colorado they presumably heard about from a Donald Trump stump speech. […]
Republican Gabe Evans has been letting his right-wing freak flag fly in recent weeks as Election Day gets closer and he is forced to elaborate further regarding his positions on a number of important topics. For example, his 111-word non-answer on the easiest political question imaginable: When is it okay to hit children in public schools? The […]

(Here’s Poll #1 and Poll #2) As we’ve noted many times, our readers have been oddly accurate in predicting outcomes over the years; while these polls are completely unscientific, we think […]
This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast…keep your kids away from Gabe-ish Evans because he might want to hit them (or at least have that option). Then, we continue to examine the mystery of why the Arizona GOP is doing the job of the Colorado GOP, because don’t they have enough of their own […]
The dust has settled in the extreme northern smidge of the city of Aurora next to Denver International Airport where ex-President Donald Trump held a rally Friday to promote his fictional narrative of the “takeover” of this Republican-controlled city of 400,000 by migrant gangs, to be followed shortly by the overrunning of the entire state […]
The Grand Junction Sentinel’s Charles Ashby ran down the scoop on the strange story we’ve been talking about for over a week now, mailers delivered in two competitive Colorado congressional races paid for by the Arizona Republican Party–a situation sufficiently unusual that we at first speculated it may have been some kind of printing error. […]
Republican Presidential nominee Donald Trump descends upon the Gaylord Resort in [squints] Aurora today to air his rambling list of grievances and explain why everyone in Colorado has been killed by Venezuelan gangs. And Aurora taxpayers get to pay for it (the reimbursement check will undoubtedly not be in the mail). If you’re planning on […]
The 2024 election is here! If you have signed up for BallotTrax, you might have already received an email and/or text message alert that your 2024 General Election ballot is on the way. If you haven’t signed up for BallotTrax, you can do that or confirm your voter registration info at GoVoteColorado.gov. You have plenty […]
As Susan Greene reports for the Aurora Sentinel, clarifying a not-unexpected detail about ex-President Donald Trump’s campaign stop tomorrow barely within the boundaries of Aurora at the Gaylord Rockies resort: the city of Aurora will pay the bill for local police protection and other services to the Trump campaign provided for tomorrow’s dubious drop-in to […]
