If Heidi Ganahl thinks you are doing something right, you really might want to reassess your plans. The 2022 Republican nominee for Governor, who lost to incumbent Democrat Jared Polis by nearly 20 points, is inarguably the worst statewide candidate in Colorado history. But rather than allow her ignominy to fade from memory, Ganahl can’t […]
Politico reported the latest gobsmacking announcement from the Trump 2.0 transition team yesterday you’ve probably already seen, failed spoiler presidential candidate and preeminent public health conspiracy theorist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will be nominated to serve as Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services–the agency tasked with protecting the public from, among a […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder He says it’s “tricky,” but George Brauchler, who was elected last week as the district attorney for a newly created judicial district in Colorado, is promising to “find a way” to allow local law enforcement to work with federal officials seeking to arrest immigrants, […]
9NEWS reports from the GOP-controlled U.S. House Oversight Committee yesterday back in lame-duck action to tie up some loose ends before the holiday break. For Colorado’s carpetbagging controversy-seeking Congresscritter Rep. Lauren Boebert, that would appear to be getting answers to rumors she’s heard about…let’s let Boebert explain this one: “There are rumors that have come […]
As USA TODAY reports, Senate Republicans today elected GOP Sen. John Thune of South Dakota to serve as the next Senate majority leader, replacing Sen. Mitch McConnell to lead the upper chamber for the first two years of the second Donald Trump administration: Thune won in a secret-ballot vote of 29-24, beating out opposing candidates […]
It’s not us…it’s you. Republican Lauren Boebert moved across the state in late 2023 because it was clear that she would not have been re-elected to Congress in her home district of CO-03; in 2022, Boebert only managed to defeat Democrat Adam Frisch by 546 votes. Boebert’s cross-Colorado move paid off last week when she […]
Republican Rep.-elect Gabe Evans, basking in the glow of his exceedingly narrow win over incumbent Democratic Rep. Yadira Caraveo in Colorado’s ultra-swing CO-08, held his first press conference since Caraveo’s concession yesterday to carefully word his way around the thornier aspects of returning President Donald Trump’s agenda–starting with Trump’s vow to initiate the largest deportation […]
On the morning after the election last Wednesday, embattled-then-vindicated chairman of the Colorado Republican Party Dave “Brandon Forever” Williams sent out an email blast celebrating Donald Trump’s nationwide victory, side-stepping the obvious problem that Trump for a third consecutive election failed to carry the state of Colorado. Radical Democrats, and even sell out RINO’s like […]

SUNDAY UPDATE: With the count failing to close a persistent gap of around 2,500 votes, incumbent Democratic Rep. Yadira Caraveo concedes the race to Republican challenger Gabe Evans: —– As Ernest Luning reports for the Colorado Springs Gazette’s political blog, the agonizingly slow count in the close-as-can-be CO-08 race, which as of this writing is […]
Warning about non-existent “election fraud” has been almost a requirement for membership in the modern Republican Party. Everything is fraudulent…unless Republicans are winning, and then it’s fine. And as we found out again this week, whenever actual election fraud attempts take place, it is always — ALWAYS — a Republican who is involved. From The Colorado […]
How did Harris lose to the most unqualified individual to ever hold the office of President? Ok, there are three main things I’m going to discuss: Why did Trump win? We have survived this before. What do we do now? Why Did Trump Win? I don’t know (I have my suspicions). No one knows, which […]
As the Colorado Sun reports, one of the nation’s most competitive congressional races is neck-and-neck the morning after as ballots continue to be counted in two politically polar opposite counties in the swing CO-08 race, conservative Weld County versus the larger swing suburban Adams County, each breaking strongly for Republican Gabe Evans and incumbent Rep. […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder by Jason Salzman and Erik Maulbetsch Embed from Getty Images Colorado congressional candidate Gabe Evans is saying that his strident opposition to gay marriage ended long ago. If that’s true, 9News fact checker Marshall Zelinger asked Evans Oct. 16, then why was the Ft. Lupton […]

Jared Polis and Secretary of State Jena Griswold announced that the emergency operation to change every voting hardware password accidentally disclosed by the SoS office in a publicly-posted spreadsheet, which resulted in a major political embarrassment just days before the election despite posing little actual security threat […]
Here are the latest ballot return numbers via the Colorado Secretary of State’s office: As you can see from the graph at the bottom, Democrats have really rocketed upward in recent days when it comes to ballot returns. Remember: It is WAY too late to try to return a ballot by mail at this point. […]
One week before Election Day, Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold started fielding the wrong kind of calls. By the end of the evening on Tuesday, one election cycle — but not this one — had changed significantly. It has long been an open secret that the ambitious Griswold — who tested the waters for a U.S. […]
At the beginning of the month, an Emerson Polling survey of Colorado’s Eighth Congressional District found the race between incumbent Democratic Rep. Yadira Caraveo and her Republican challenger state Rep. Gabe Evans deadlocked at 44% with 12% of respondents still undecided. This poll was cited throughout October by both campaigns as a call to action […]

First, the good news if you are a supporter of the Colorado Republican Party: At least they aren’t talking this week about furries or transgender surgeries performed by the school principal. And now, the predictable bad news: The Colorado GOP is still laser-focused on internal grudges. The latest Colorado GOP newsletter/call to action out this […]
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, Poll #3, and Poll #4) 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 […]
As the Grand Junction Sentinel’s Charles Ashby reports, an apparent attempt to fraudulently cast as many as two dozen ballots by persons other than the intended voters has been intercepted by the state’s voter signature verification system in Mesa County–where, as readers know, the former county clerk is now cooling her heels in county jail […]
9NEWS’ Marshall Zelinger fact-checked a pair of related TV spots in the red-hot CO-08 congressional race last night, with two Republican PACs attacking incumbent Democratic Rep. Yadira Caraveo for her opposition as a state legislator to Colorado’s so-called Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights (TABOR), the fiscal chokehold measure narrowly passed in 1992 that has bedeviled […]
“Ballots are the rightful, and peaceful, successors of bullets, and that when ballots have fairly, and constitutionally, decided, there can be successful appeal, back to bullets; that there can be no successful appeal except to ballots themselves, at succeeding elections.” — Abraham Lincoln
As the Pueblo Chieftain’s James Bartolo reports, after losing earlier this month a second attempt to pass a city ordinance attacking abortion rights, anti-abortion usual suspects at Colorado For Life sent a letter this week to two professed pro-life members of the Pueblo City Council urging them with politically threatening overtones to switch their votes […]
