THURSDAY UPDATE: Steve Sundberg finally got around to commenting on his racist videos with one of those “sorry if you were offended” type of “apologies.” From The Denver Post: “In a dark Covid shut down, when businesses were fighting to survive, with people experiencing mental health issues, uncertainty, suicide, substance abuse, domestic violence and fear, […]
As the Colorado Springs Gazette’s Nick Sullivan reports, while the rest of the state was still digesting the results of last month’s landslide victories for Democratic candidates up and down the ballot, a once-discredited Republican school board president, recalled from office seven years ago in Jefferson County, was making the unlikeliest of comeback plays an […]
Hannah Metzger of the Colorado Springs Gazette’s political blog reports on a changing of the guard in Adams County, as Democratic stalwart Rep. Adrienne Benavidez resigns from her House District 35 seat: Though she didn’t mention her reason for resigning in the letter, Benavidez spoke on the increasing number of Latino lawmakers in the legislature.

She sought to reverse the party’s losses in 2018 and 2020 through a […]
UPDATE: Shots metaphorically fired as Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene bodyslams Rep. Lauren Boebert for her lack of fealty to Donald Trump and Kevin McCarthy: Perhaps in the end there really can be only one. —– There will be a vote on January 3, 2023 to elect the next Speaker of the U.S. House. But as […]
Four years ago, Republican Walker Stapleton lost an open race for Governor to Democrat Jared Polis by 11 points. A few weeks later, a photo emerged of a newly-bearded Stapleton smiling into a camera during a family vacation to Hawaii. Stapleton had been preparing to run for Governor for roughly a decade, so you could […]
Almost ten years ago, a small number of rural Colorado counties led by conservative stronghold Weld County tried and mostly failed to pass ballot measures that would have, in theory, kicked off a process to secede from the state government in Denver. Since that time, secessionists in Oregon have enjoyed somewhat greater success, with a […]
Sandra Fish of The Colorado Sun outlined today some big-picture campaign spending takeaways from state races in Colorado, with the main takeaway being that Gov.
