The wicked witch is dead. Both of them. As the Colorado Secretary of State’s office announced via press release this morning: Proponents of Proposed Initiative #50, “Voter Approval to Retain Additional Property Tax Revenue,” and Proposed Initiative #108, “Valuation for Assessments,” have withdrawn those measures from the 2024 General Election ballot. As a result, those […]
FRIDAY UPDATE: 9NEWS’ Kyle Clark tracked down the maker of the racist signs that popped up on East Colfax yesterday morning, and it’s a well-known far-right “street artist” with a long list of similar campaigns in other cities, including a similar sign posted outside the Democratic National Convention in Chicago last week: A Republican activist […]
After winning the Republican primary to take over Ken Buck’s deep-red conservative congressional seat, Rep. Lauren Boebert has been on carpetbagging cruise control, spending more time helping her friends like Rep. Matt Gaetz keep their seats than campaigning for her own election. Boebert’s Democratic opponent Trisha Calvarese, who bested a troubled perennial candidate for the […]
More has been reported on this story — and there’s a new update — since the story first leaked out on Monday. We’ll show you the Tweet first, so you can gauge your own reaction: As USA Today explained further: The Trump campaign bought $48,000 worth of advertising in Florida in the West Palm Beach […]
As Colorado Newsline’s Sara Wilson reports, even though the floundering presidential campaign of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has been suspended and the candidate has endorsed Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, Kennedy intends to remain on the ballot in states where is presence is not perceived as a spoiler threat to Trump. That includes here in […]
UPDATE: What in the hell is the Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce doing? Take a look at this from CPR’s Andy Kenney: We weren’t aware that the Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce was involved in the mess known as Initiatives 50 and 108…so why are they getting involved now? —– Lawmakers today kicked off the […]
As Colorado Public Radio reports this Saturday evening, a hard-won meeting of Colorado Republican Party Central Committee members for the purpose of voting out the current executive leadership of the party starting with chairman and twice-failed congressional candidate Dave “Need A New Nickname, Brandon” Williams took place at a church in Brighton today, and those […]
Colorado lawmakers will return to the State Capitol on Monday for (another) special legislative session focused on property tax rates. It may turn out that the most important discussion from this brief return of legislators could be about a Constitutional amendment that would be a smart issue to tackle in the next regular legislative session […]
Colorado state Rep. Brandi Bradley, now doing double culture-war duty as the leader of the brand-new Douglas County chapter of Moms For Liberty (yes, those Moms For Liberty), has been on the clamorous frontlines of every conceivable wedge issue during her relatively short time in office, earning her a spot in the Colorado House Republican […]
(Worse than you thought — Promoted by Colorado Pols) By Jason Salzman and Erik Maulbetsch, Colorado Times Recorder On the campaign trail, congressional candidate Gabe Evans talks a lot about his experience in the military, police force, and Colorado Legislature. But what you don’t hear him discuss in any detail – and what’s completely absent […]
The Colorado Republican Party has been getting a lot of terrible press coverage lately for sending emails in support of various state legislative candidates that contain flat-out disgusting rhetoric and ridiculous accusations. Those emails have been so bad, in fact, that Republican candidates intended to benefit from them are speaking out in condemnation instead. For […]
As NBC News reports, expelled former Republican Congressman George Santos’ long ride of fraud and theft that peaked with a partial term in the U.S. House came to an end yesterday, as Santos pled guilty to two felony counts in a deal with prosecutors that will include a mandatory minimum prison sentence: Santos, who was […]
As we noted last week, convicted ex-Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters is in what can be best described as a state of wholesale denial after being found guilty one week ago today on 7 of 10 counts related to her plot to allow unauthorized conspirators access to Dominion Voting Systems equipment in a failed attempt […]
As the Durango Herald’s Reuben Schafir reports, the latest hate-filled email blast from the Colorado Republican Party ostensibly in support of a swing district Senate candidate is being condemned by the would-be beneficiary, Sen. Cleave Simpson, who says flat-out that the state party’s efforts on his behalf are hurting his campaign: State Sen. Cleave Simpson, […]
THURSDAY UPDATE: It’s official, Colorado lawmakers are headed back to class along with the kids later this August, with the goal of saving the state’s schools and local governments from the threat of two ill-advised far-right ballot measures: Colorado Public Radio reports Gov. Jared Polis won’t be signing any compromise without confirmation that controversial Initiatives […]
“The best is the enemy of the good.” –Voltaire
We’ve been discussing in this space what it means when Republican politicians try to couch their positions on abortion rights by saying that such decisions should be left “up to the states.” For Republicans such as Presidential nominee Donald Trump and Gabe-ish Evans [pictured], a candidate for Congress in CO-08, this is a way of […]
It’s hard to believe that it hasn’t even been a month since President Joe Biden decided to drop his re-election campaign and Vice President Kamala Harris quickly took over as the new Democratic nominee for President. As we’ve noted in this space, the Harris candidacy has changed EVERYTHING about the 2024 election, attracting more than […]
UPDATE 5:20: The counts and verdicts from 9NEWS’ Marshall Zelinger: —– UPDATE 5:15PM: Former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters GUILTY on influencing public servant charges, not guilty on some impersonation charges. Guilty on 7 out of 10 total counts. Stand by for summary. —– UPDATE 5:10PM: Jury has reached a verdict. Jury returning to the […]
On its face, this was just another incendiary Tweet from Colorado’s patron saint of incendiary Tweeting, Rep. Lauren Boebert: But as Natalie Musumeci reports for Business Insider, unlike most of Boebert’s social media firehose spray of attention-seeking vitriol, it was possible to determine exactly where the Congresswoman from Rifle Windsor was at the time of […]
The trial of former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters on multiple felony counts stemming from the illegal access and theft of data from Dominion Voting Machines equipment in her care back in 2021 heard testimony yesterday from Peters’ former chief deputy clerk Belinda Knisley, who accepted a plea agreement almost two years ago in this […]
In today’s edition of ideas that sound good in the staff meeting but don’t work out in the real world, here’s former GOP Rep. Dan Woog, running again in House District 19 after losing the seat to outgoing Rep. Jennifer Parenti in 2022, in a cornfield doing what seems to be a spoof of the […]
In late July, we asked readers of Colorado Pols to weigh in on their thoughts on the potential Vice Presidential selection from Democratic Presidential nominee Kamala Harris. With the official announcement expected on Tuesday, it’s time to ask once more time. On July 29, readers felt like Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly had the edge, but […]
