Enjoy this fundraising email sent out today from the Republican National Committee in the name of Sen. Cory Gardner. We took the liberty of marking it up to help prevent future errors.

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Journalists have been careful to report, as The Denver Post’s John Ingold and Jordan Steffen did today, that nine jurors apparently voted for the death penalty in the Aurora shooter’s trial, two were undecided, and one voted for life in prison. So the prosecutors were three votes short of the unanimous decision needed […]
As the Colorado Independent’s Susan Greene reports today, Attorney General Cynthia Coffman’s trips to Durango to “investigate” the recent spill of mine wastewater into the Animas River have local officials crying foul–and may have brushed with violating the law Coffman is charged with protecting yet again: At the peak of the Animas River crisis, Cynthia […]

The Colorado Statesman’s Ernest Luning offers a preview of the message incumbent GOP Rep. Mike Coffman intends to use against what’s expected to be his toughest challenge ever from former Colorado Senate Minority Leader Morgan Carroll–and it’s all negative all the time: Coffman acknowledged that it was “going to be a tough race.” His opponent, […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) I am compelled by conscience to respond to your recent hate-filled rhetoric toward immigrants and your call to deport all 11 million undocumented immigrants currently living and working in the United States.

As the Denver Post’s John Frank reports: Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio is starting to form his team in Colorado.

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Donald Trump sort of clarified some aspects of his immigration position over the weekend, giving local media a chance to educate us about the illusory stance of Rep.
