More on The Red Hen.
You know, if some of you worried more about what your leaders did than what some stupid blog commenter did then you’d probably be a bit more politically rewarded.
So far the real nail biter is the AG race.
Whoever wins has got some good practice running in this tight a primary.
Salazar is really strong in rural Colorado. It's like a big light green Salazar donut around the urban areas that voted more for Wieser. In some of them, it's super close or tied. Park County went for Weiser by 18 votes. Washington and Gilpin counties are exactly tied between the candidates.
This doesn't surprise me, because of Joe Salazar's record of getting out there and working on civil rights, prison, and environmental issues that affect rural communities.
If Weiser does pull this off by a whisker, will he remember how close it was, and that half the voters in Colorado want clear , consistent limits on where and when fracking happens?
Can we put to rest the notion that all the Joe Salazar voters are dumb, uninformed hicks that thought he was that other Salazar? I don't see anyone saying that Cary Kennedy got so much support because silly people got her confused with that other famous Kennedy politician.
not share with the DCCC, has gotten out the vote (or the ballot turn in) for Joe. I have gotten 5 texts and phone calls from Our Revolution urging me to vote for Salazar. That’s impressive. Annoying, but impressive.
Chances are still 50-50 that we wake up tomorrow with an attorney general nominee that nobody, least of all Colorado Pols, expected to win.
And you can bet that he will chop Broccoli.
UPDATE: ~8K votes apart with some of Weld, Montrose, El Paso, and Boulder still only partialy counted at 4 am 6/27. That shows the impact of the last minute “Our Revolution” GOTV for Joe, so I’m still optimistic.

Your faith is touching but doesn 't seem to be moving the mountain of Weiser's lead. You say "except for Denver and Jeffco, the late-counting counties are all rural. "
Uhh, those are our two biggest counties and between them have more votes than all of rural Colorado put together.
With 93 pct of the vote in, 9 News reports a 9,500 vote Weiser lead. Salazar would have to beat Weiser by 3-1 in latebreporting votes to come ahead.
My money is on the notoriois RBG's guy beating the Bernie Bro. Are we on for a beer?
Hey, CD3!!
Can Diane Mitsch Bush win?
I have spent quite a bit of time with Diane and I sincerly believe that she has the best chance of taking out Tipton than any of his previous opponents. She's been endorsed by a pretty impressive list of pols and groups from all over the spectrum.
I'd love to think she can win. But the knuckle-dragging trumpies in Mesa County gave Ray Scott a 2-1 victory over moderate Republican Dan Thurlow because of guns, PAC money and trumpian-level lies from Scott's campaigns. Mesa has by far the largest concentration of Republicans in the 3rd so Diane will need a large break of unaffiliateds and every Dem vote in the district. Pueblo dems will have to turn out huge.
True, Gertie. But I always say the term "Pueblo Democrat is like "Sterling silver!"
i'll send her a check in your honor.
Fun facts:
1) Even Saira Rao got more votes than Casper Stockham (take a hint, man — they don't want you!)
2) CD3 — total D/U votes exceeded (R) votes for Tipton (hang on to all those voters and we get a new Rep!)
3) CD6 — D/U turnout is substantially greater than votes for Coffman (dreams of retirement finally on the horizon 🙂
4) SoS — Go Jena! already ahead of Wayno
5) Treasurer and AG races — D/U combine to wallop the R turnout!
Also, call Lassie — Timmy appears to have fallen down the well! State Senate prelim voter turnout is favoring Tammy Story over Tim Neville (wow, hope those numbers hold up tonight and in the general!)
I noticed a lot of aggregate votes for Dems exceeded aggregate votes for Repubs. Like in the governor's race where both sides had competitive races. That's good sign.
And yes, Timmy was trailing Tammy even though neither had an opponent.
Where'd you see the numbers?
Latest election results are on the SoS website here.
Nice, Davie. Yes, Story is still ahead with 75% of the vote counted. It would be sweet to see a Neville bite the dust.
And Tom Sullivan pulled more votes than Cole Wist in Reddish HD37 down in Centennial — that is *very* encouraging!
RMGO and the NRA are going to have to spend some big bucks “They’re gonna take away your bazookas and Armored Personnel Carriers!” to hold on to these seats.
Plus, given the heavy Dem+Dem-leaning U turnout, expect *lots* of out of state (read: Koch) PAC money flooding in to influence the general races. If their money won’t go to the Federal Treasury, at least they’ll boost our local economy…
The gun nuts in Wist's district probably on their hands to teach him a lesson.
Good point. Hopefully, forgive and forget isn't in their vocabulary (a fairly safe bet with the Neville family)
The RMGO-backed Yuma County Sheriff candidate went down bigly last night. The locals really, really didn’t like outside money involved in the race and the front page article in the Wray Gazette from a week ago where the County Commissioners grilled the sitting sherifff on the Mercer issue left the reader with more questions than answers.
Really, Dudley shooting blanks in Yuma County? Who did Shorty the Watermelon killer support?
If I was a betting man…
Lefty rumblings in NY…bye DCCC
Give yourself a pat on the back Zappy! You earned it!
The Times called CD-4 for Karen. She’s chuffed. Also election house parties on hot days kinda suck
Made it home from Tennessee in time for the Polis event. Many thanks to Cary, Mike and Donna for their hard-fought campaigns. Jared gave a very inspiring speech tonight. He is really in his stride. #goteamblue
