The Colorado Republican Party has been working hard to stir up a bigger story about some dumbass comments made recently by former State Rep. Steve Lebsock, who is apparently not content to ride off into the sunset as the first state lawmaker in 100 years to be kicked out of the legislature. In case you’ve […]
Hey, Steve Lebsock! You’ve just become the first sitting member of the Colorado General Assembly to be expelled in over 100 years. What are you going to do now, the world wonders? Actually, we weren’t wondering. But in case you were: After then-Rep. Lebsock switched his party affiliation approximately one hour before being expelled from […]
UPDATE: Just so there is no confusion, State GOP Chair Jeff Hays confirms that Republicans could have made a smarter choice but decided against it: GOP chair says @cologop could have been “magnanimous” and let D @GovofCO pick @RepLebsock replacement, but to him personally, that seemed phony. He was an R when he was ousted — no matter […]
AP via the Washington Post summarizes yesterday’s all-day drama on the floor of the Colorado House, which ended with an outcome few expected as the House gaveled in on Friday morning: the first expulsion of a sitting Colorado lawmaker in 103 years: Democratic Rep. Steve Lebsock wasn’t present when Democrats and Republicans voted 52-9 Friday […]
UPDATE #8: Steve Lebsock is expelled from the legislature by a vote of 52-9 (4 members excused). —– UPDATE #7: The moment of truth approaches: Multiple members from both parties now tell me they believe there are enough votes to expel @RepLebsock. We may see soon, though there are several pleading with him to resign to […]
Beginning last fall, many people who work at the Colorado State Capitol have come forward to tell their stories of sexual harassment by lawmakers in both parties. Tomorrow, members of the Colorado House of Representatives will vote on a resolution to expel Representative Steve Lebsock, a Democrat accused of harassment by five women. An independent […]
Members of the Colorado House of Representatives are scheduled to hold a vote on Friday on a resolution to expel Rep. Steve Lebsock (D-Thornton) over multiple allegations of sexual harassment over a period of several years — the first reported attempt to expel a sitting state legislator since 1915. In advance of Friday’s vote, lawmakers […]
UPDATE #4: Denver7: “If we don’t move forward with this expulsion, we are sending a very dangerous message that when we put on this badge, that we are held above accountability and reproach,” [Rep. Faith] Winter said. “The last thing I was thinking of when I came forward was politics. My whole goal in coming […]
As the Colorado Independent’s John Herrick reports: As House leadership continues its investigation into allegations of sexual harassment against Rep. Steve Lebsock, a Thornton Democrat who is running for state treasurer, donors who have abandoned him say they had to make a hard-nosed political calculation: They want a Democrat who can win the treasurer’s office. […]
We noted yesterday the announcement by accused serial harasser Rep. Steve Lebsock of Adams County that he would leave the Democratic House caucus, and praise he got from prominent Republicans that seemed to open the door to Lebsock seeking a haven in that party–either formally with a party change, or perhaps to caucus with the […]
