I hope Pat Neville primaries his ass anyways. What has he got to lose?
I would love it if Pat Neville primaries Buck and loses. Just to get Neville out of his house seat. As much as I hate Ken Buck, Pat Neville would be worse.
Brauchler or Sonnenberg would be less embarrassing than Buckhead. Neville probably even worse.
^^ This^^
Ya’ think? . . .
. . . let’s not misunderestimate TimmyMiniMe.
He could possibly do everything for the Republican party, on a national basis from Congress, that’s he’s done for them here in Colorado!?
Buck is only guaranteed an ultra-safe Republican district until 2022.
The average congressional district for Colorado in 2022 will need to have about 730,000 residents. The current CO-4 will have about 838,000+. The redistricting commission could give Buck a gift by giving him more or less the same district minus either parts of Douglass or Weld to make the math work, but they might also redraw the map more substantially. He could find himself in a merely Republican leaning district where he could face an actual fight in beyond the primary.
Much the same way CD 6 has evolved…
Maximizing the number of politically competitive districts will be one of the criteria under Colorado's new law for the commission, while maintaining communities of interest and preserving county and municipal boundaries. Will be interesting.
I agree that it will be interesting to see what the commission is able to come up with. My guess is that it will not be nearly as competitive as Democrats might hope, but a great deal more competitive than Buck will want. Fairly CD-6 like.
I've noted in the past that Larimer and Weld county will have very close to one congressional district's population. But there may very well be a more subtle solution with more granular data about the population and partisanship of different towns.
Nice that you can talk about competitive districts…it really is. I think living over here in Mesa County (well, close enough, nowadays, I can throw a rock into it from up on the hill) where we use tax-payer money to teach kids to shoot, where a whole brain and half a heart is a disqualifier for elected office…where the Republican party owns a college with its own private motel.
The glaciers are melting faster than the political landscape here is changing.
