Colorado Pols Political Tourney - Breakdown

  • 13 Comments
  • by: Colorado Pols

We’re breaking down the bracket in the Colorado Pols Political Tournament, starting with the left-hand side of the bracket. Click below to take a look and cast a vote.

Here’s how to fill out your bracket: Consider the Political Tournament a race towards a big final political office. But in the meantime, in each matchup, consider the two candidates in a hypothetical statewide political race.

For example, if Mark Udall and Scott Renfroe were running against each other for a statewide office, who would win? You choose the winner of that race and move them on to the next round.

Which Top Seed is Most Likely to Be a First Round Upset?

  1. is Shafroth over Brophy, banking on his Democratic party backing and conservationist history doing him better in a 2-person statewide than in the CD-2 primary. Other than that, it seems like the first round is pretty straightforward.

    I do pick Beauprez over O’Brien though too, but in the 8-9 matchup it’s pretty much close your eyes and pick the first name you point at.

    1. Shafroth over Brophy ( that wouldn’t even be close)

      However, I would choose O’Brien over Beauprez, Romer over Suthers and Garnett over Buck. In this political climate, R’s probably would not win any of these.

        1. if I had to guess, Pols will probably have the higher seeds lose that get the most votes in each of the polls. However, I bet most people on this thread would predict Shafroth over Brophy, but, how is Pols to know without having that pairing in the poll?

      1. Also, I’m not sure folks were really understanding this thread. So far, people are saying that Ritter is likely to lose to Frazier. Are you kidding me? Must be several folks voting for Ritter to go down in the first round because they are hoping for a real primary against him in 2010?

  2. Ritter is unpopular and Frazier is much stronger then this liberal blog says he is. He won the Rocky Mountain Straw poll against players like Hillman and Beauprez.

    Why do you all say a Hillman upset. That’s the question…he’s the best hope for the GOP.

    1. people choosing Suthers to go down in the first round, but, I do not understand the reasoning behind picking Hillman to lose in the first round. That’s ok. This is not a scientific poll. Just for fun.
