A story from FOX 31's Eli Stokols looks in detail at billionaire Tom Steyer, who was in Aspen yesterday for the American Renewable Energy Day summit conference–talking about his ambitious plans to aggressively take on politicians in 2014 and beyond who deny the general scientific consensus that human activity is contributing to global climate change: […]
As promised, 9NEWS' Brandon Rittiman "Truth Tested" yesterday a pair of ads running from a Democratic-leaning group targeting the Republican gubernatorial primary. We discussed yesterday the incremental preference Democrats logically have for Republican candidate Tom Tancredo over frontrunning GOP opponent Bob Beauprez, which is primarily Beauprez's cash and the need to divert resources to counter it. Neither of […]
UPDATE 1/1 #2: The Denver Post's John Ingold: Colorado's ambitious experiment in cannabis policy hit a historic milestone Wednesday, when licensed stores began making the first legal sales of recreational marijuana anywhere in the world. A few people queued up outside pot shops early Wednesday to celebrate and claim bragging rights, but longer lines began […]
UPDATE: In response to claims by Tom Tancredo to CBS4 that he was being verbally harassed by "thugs" immediately prior to the video clip of him flipping off a pro-Evie Hudak cameraman, we received a longer version of the video clip in question showing the moments prior to Tancredo's gesture. As you can see, the altercation Tancredo […]
Over the weekend, the editorial board of the Denver Post weighed in on the Gubernatorial candidacy of Republican Tom Tancredo, who surprised many last week by throwing his hat in the ring for 2014. And what did the Post have to say? Well, they're about as excited for another Tancredo candidacy as a kid who […]
As The Hill's Jonathan Easley reports: The Republican National Committee (RNC) and Democratic National Committee (DNC) clashed Wednesday over a new RNC ad that the DNC says cruelly exploits the Newtown shootings. The ad, called "The First 100 Days," criticizes Obama on the failure of his legislative agenda, including gun control, so far in Congress. […]
No longer will the Jefferson County Clerk’s Elections Division be tucked away at the far end of a long hallway on the Taj Mahal’s second floor. Instead, the ballot counters and administrative staff will tomorrow be opening the doors of their new digs a few blocks away at the Laramie building.
That means it’s time to update your rolodexes! From the Jefferson County Clerk and Recorder:
(Golden) – The Elections Division of the Jefferson County Clerk and Recorder will be moving to a new location beginning Feb. 27, 2012. The office will move from its current location on the second floor of the Administration and Courts Building to the Laramie Building on the Jefferson County government campus in Golden. The new Elections Division address is 3500 Illinois Street, Suite 1100, Golden 80401.
“This move will allow us to consolidate and improve our processes by having all election-related activities under the same roof,” said County Clerk and Recorder Pam Anderson. “The Elections Warehouse, Mail Ballot Processing Center and Ballot Counting Room are already located in the Laramie Building, so it will be nice to have our elections administrative staff headquartered there as well,” she added.
It certainly will be “nice” to have everything in one building, although Anderson (or whoever writes the press releases in the clerk’s office) probably should’ve included thrown in a few words about increased efficiency or transparency for good measure. Of course this move is nice – if it wasn’t “nice” or “good,” why would you send out a press release about it?
If you’re going to include quotes in a press release, you ostensibly want those quotes to be tossed into a newspaper article. But the fact that something’s “nice” isn’t newsworthy, so why not say something a little more worthwhile? Anderson should’ve either crafted a better quote or included no quote at all and plainly released the information on the move.
Regardless, the next time you walk into the Taj Mahal intent on paying the elections division a visit, hop back in your car and drive two blocks down the road to the new office in the Laramie building. It’ll be real “nice.”
As the Colorado Independent’s John Tomasic summarized Friday, all this talk of a “Republican wave,” both nationally where conventional wisdom says it rolled strongly and in Colorado where it “hit a bump,” was more a question of whether or not Democrats had their hip boots on: In Colorado, Republicans won a one-seat House majority by […]
UPDATE: Politico’s Dave Catanese Tweets that Bennet’s campaign will release an internal poll shortly showing them up four points over Romanoff. The big story today, obviously, is the new SurveyUSA poll released by 9NEWS and the state’s newspaper of record showing big movement in our marquee primary races: The pollster asked 536 likely and actual […]
Today has not been a good news day for the Senate campaign of Democrat Andrew Romanoff. The Photoshopstroturfing story that first came out last night has gone national, and both the initial error and the subsequent “those minority folks” quote from new spokesperson Roy Teicher. So what does Romanoff’s campaign do in response? EXACTLY what […]
