Emerson/FOX 31: Evans, Caraveo Locked At 44%

A new poll this morning of Colorado’s (and one of the nation’s) most competitive congressional races, Colorado’s 8th Congressional District, shows a race as close as the mapmakers intended when they drew this almost perfectly divided district: A new poll of voters in Colorado’s 8th Congressional District shows a tie between Democratic incumbent Yadira Caraveo […]

Another Gabe Evans Supporter’s Shockingly Antisemitic Posts

(Where do all these Nazis keep coming from? — Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder For the second time this month, a supporter of Republican congressional candidate Gabe Evans has been found to be promoting racist and antisemitic content online. On Sept 11, Evans fired his political director for her […]

Italian Boxer Declines Boebert’s Bigot Bucks

During the Summer Olympic Games in Paris last August, as readers will remember, a controversy erupted over a female Algerian boxer Imane Khelif, who was dubiously accused of being male on her way to winning the gold medal in her weight classification. Khelif’s bout against Italian boxer Angela Carini ended early after Carini stopped the […]

Who Will Win Colorado’s Two Tightest Congressional Races?

It’s that time in the election cycle when we ask readers of Colorado Pols about what’s going to happen when the votes are tallied. Pols’ readers have been oddly accurate in predicting outcomes over the years, so while these polls are completely unscientific, we think the results still carry some real weight. As always, we […]

Fact-Check Lauren Boebert, Reap The Snark

Last week, Colorado’s eminent epicenter of rhetorical excess Rep. Lauren Boebert sat down for an interview with Colorado Public Radio’s Ryan Warner, who has a reputation for fair and polite yet still persistent questioning, and also capable of real-time fact-checking so as not to allow his interviews to become launchpads for misinformation. As The Hill’s […]

Dave Williams’ Colorado GOP Gets Back To Offending Everybody

Colorado Republicans today are still reeling from or celebrating (depending on what side you’re on) yesterday’s ruling by an El Paso County judge definitively rejecting the attempt by critics of state party chairman Dave “Don’t Need No Stinking Brandon” Williams to oust him and his elective leadership allies, and replace Williams with former U.S. Senate […]

Analysis: Anti-Gay Threads Run Though Congressional Candidate Gabe Evans’ Adult Life

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder “If gay marriages are allowed, the institution of marriage will have been redefined to include all of the perverted and immoral practices mentioned above.” Colorado congressional candidate Gabe Evans wrote those words in a 2004 letter to the editor when he was just 17 years old. […]

Gabe Evans Will “Check The Box,” And That’s Why He Can’t Be Trusted

The Colorado Sun’s Jesse Paul gives us a lot to unpack today with a long-awaited hard look at CO-08 Republican congressional candidate Gabe Evans’ views on the social issues of marriage equality and abortion rights. Responding to ads slamming with backup Evans’ no-exceptions opposition to abortion as he indicated in several candidate surveys, as well […]

Where Do You Buy One Of Dan Woog’s $25 Burgers?

When we last encountered former state Rep. Dan Woog, running again for the Colorado House in Erie’s HD-19, he seemed to be lost deep in somebody’s cornfield with voices manifesting either in his head or in the background in what we think was a parody of the movie Field of Dreams, although Woog never left […]

Boebert Starts The War On Christmas A Few Months Early

  As the UK Indepedent’s Ariana Baio reports, debate yesterday in the U.S. House took a turn for the characteristically nutty, after Colorado’s carpetbagging crusader Rep. Lauren Boebert dropped one of her signature non sequitur bombs in floor debate over an amendment she offered to a forest management bill: Colorado Representative Lauren Boebert slammed Democrats […]

Trump Grows Aurora “Takeover” Fiction To Cover All Of Colorado

UPDATE: Gov. Jared Polis issued this statement welcoming Donald Trump to Colorado if he chooses to visit, but reminding Trump as a “convicted felon” to leave the “criminal elements that he brings with him” back in Washington: “Aurora is our third biggest city, over 400,000 people, it’s a terrific city, I was there last week.

Dave Williams Loots Colorado GOP During His Everlasting Goodbye

Yesterday, we discussed the conspicuous lack of the usual pre-election organizing operations normally carried out by the Colorado Republican Party this year, the result of gross mismanagement of dwindling resources under state party chairman Dave “Brandon Who?” Williams and a growing division between candidates who remain loyal to the state party and others including some […]

What Coordinated Campaign? Colorado Republicans Face The Down-Ballot Abyss

We’re just 42 days away from the 2024 general election, and as Colorado Public Radio’s Bente Birkeland and Caitlyn Kim report, the divided Colorado Republican Party’s disorganization and lack of resources to assist candidates at any level this year is becoming a full-scale emergency–and despite the urgency with yet another looming catastrophe at the polls […]

DENVER: In order to expose Gabe Evans’ personal mission to strip the women of Colorado of their rights and freedoms, ProgressNow Colorado, the state’s largest multi-issue advocacy organization, launched their campaign Women Against Gabe Evans beginning with a petition that will be digitally shared throughout the 8th Congressional District of Colorado. “There is a reason […]

Walling Off New Mexico: It’s Now Really A Thing

As Albuquerque’s KRQE-TV reports, what was once a running joke with its origin in various flubs committed by Republican politicians attempting to address immigration on the southern U.S. border, sometimes forgetting or misstating the state of New Mexico’s status as a U.S. state, now appears to be a highly questionable reality as the state of […]

Denver Gazette Running Ads With Falsehoods About Gangs Seizing an ‘Aurora Apartment Complex’

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally published at the Colorado Times Recorder It’s now well established that Venezuelan gangs did not take over apartment complexes in Aurora, but the Denver Gazette, a conservative online newspaper owned by GOP billionaire Phil Anschutz, is still running Facebook advertisements falsely claiming that a “Venezuelan gang used violence to seize […]

Delusional Mayor Mike Says He Can Change Trump’s Mind About Aurora

As we await the details of ex-President Donald Trump’s promised campaign visit to Aurora, Colorado, motivated by discredited “crisis comms” PR on behalf of an out-of-state slumlord has “fallen” to Venezuelan gang members, the city’s Republican Mayor Mike Coffman has a serious problem. After initially helping spread the false story that apartment buildings in the […]

Republicans Misunderstand Leverage in Stupidest Shutdown Threat

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson is really not very good at this whole governing thing. Like, historically bad. With less than 50 days to go until the 2024 Election, Johnson on Wednesday tried to ram through a continuing resolution to fund the government tied to a proposal so idiotic that many House Republicans publicly […]

Yadira Caraveo Not Letting Gabe Evans “Memory Hole” His Fired Political Director

As the Denver Post’s John Aguilar reports, incumbent Rep. Yadira Caraveo, defending her seat from freshman state Rep. Gabe Evans, took the offensive yesterday against Evans over the firing last week of Evans’ political director Jessica Spindle, a longtime Evans ally who was exposed by the Colorado Times-Recorder to have a lengthy history of overtly […]
