If you think we missed something important, please include the link in the comments below (here’s a good example). If […]
The Colorado Republican Party was already in the midst of a massive civil war even before the 2022 election inflicted unthinkable losses on the GOP. What has happened since has taken this internal conflict to an entirely new level. It’s like Infinity War, but in this case there are no heroes — only villains. In […]
THURSDAY UPDATE: Adam Frisch claps back as the mandatory recall he couldn’t stop if he wanted to moves forward: I want to share an update following yesterday’s Secretary of State announcement of a mandatory recount. Since the results were so close, we have been expecting this as a mandatory part of Colorado’s voting process. The […]
(One election away from your town? — Promoted by Colorado Pols) The Pueblo City Council will vote on an anti-abortion ordinance during their upcoming work session on Dec. 12. Introduced by Councilor Regina Maestri, the ordinance passed its first reading during Monday’s Council meeting. The background paper, included in the meeting minutes, notes, “legal Staff does not […]
The United States Men’s soccer team advanced to the knockout stage of the World Cup after defeating Iran by a score of 1-0; the U.S. team now faces Netherlands on Saturday. Now, 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 […]

Happy Cyber Monday! A quick note before we get started: Some of the items in today’s Get More Smarter are a few days old because of the Thanksgiving holiday break. 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 […]
I wrote this in 2014. Given that it is Thanksgiving week-end again, I thought I’d share. I do love Colorado! I LOVE Colorado. One of the things I missed while running for office was getting out of town. Today I decided to drive to Glenwood–it is a nice drive, about 180 miles round trip, and […]
TUESDAY UPDATE: Here’s a good story from 9News about Republican politicians, including El Paso County Sheriff Bill Elder, who flat out refuse to use tools that might have prevented this tragedy: Colorado’s Red Flag gun law seems tailor made for the suspect in the Club Q shooting, who threatened to blow up a house […]
Yesterday’s final counting of cured and overseas ballots slashed freshman GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert’s already narrow lead over Democratic challenger Adam Frisch into the range necessary to trigger an automatic recount of the results–551 votes at the last count. Although this further delayed the final results in this race, it’s very unlikely that the recount will […]
We’ve been waiting to publish our annual “Winners and Losers” lists from the election until all of the big races had been finalized. But with the outcome in CO-03 likely headed to a recount, it’s time to just move ahead. Up first is our list of “Winners” from 2022. This is not merely a list […]
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 […]
Vanquished 2022 gubernatorial candidate Hiedi Heidi Ganahl, as we’ve discussed in this space a number of times, was and remains a dyed-in-the-wool ideological “movement conservative” who, when given the chance to reinvent herself into a more electable image after winning the June 28th primary, instead doubled down on her conservatism and campaigned against vaccine requirements, […]
On the day that former President Donald Trump is set to announce another bid for the White House, Congressional Republicans found that the schism in their ranks that helped create a disappointing 2022 election is still, uh, schisming. House Republicans elected (sort of) Rep. Kevin McCarthy as House Speaker, but whether he can actually fulfill […]
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.

(This could be interpreted as problematic — Promoted by Colorado Pols) In a race that may determine control of the U.S. House of Representatives, election workers across Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District are still counting votes to determine if dark horse Democrat Adam Frisch will upset Congresswoman Lauren Boebert. In Pueblo, the largest city in the […]
Give us something to listen to while we wait.
The Republican Civil War in Colorado will not pause for elections. While candidates and volunteers were working hard on GOTV efforts this weekend, El Paso County Republicans were busy spending several hours yelling at each other about some other really dumb thing. As Ernest Luning reports for the publication formerly known as the Colorado Statesman: […]
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 […]
As the controversy continues to swirl over a blatantly false TV ad running from CD-8 GOP candidate Barb Kirkmeyer’s campaign, Denver7’s Meghan Lopez reports on how in the specific case of candidate ads running on federally regulated broadcast networks, normally expected standards like truth in advertising and even Colorado’s own statute against knowingly false statements […]
Running for a state legislative seat is a lot of work, but the basic process of becoming a candidate is not particularly complicated. Unless you are Paul Archer. Archer is a businessman of some sort who has donated significant amounts of money to Republican candidates over the years, and now it’s his turn to be […]
[mantra-pullquote align=”right” textalign=”left” width=”65%”]“With respect, your word is not evidence, sir.” — Kyle Clark responding to Joe O’Dea’s claims that Google is “censoring” his campaign (10/28/22).[/mantra-pullquote] Glenn Kessler of The Washington Post wrote a detailed breakdown this week on the truth about election fraud in the United States. The short version is that actual cases of […]
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 […]
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 […]
