Help Wanted: Colorado GOP seeks a leader after years of election losses
In four weeks, the Colorado Republican Party — bruised by years of electoral losses and divided over whether the 2020 presidential election was rigged — will elect its next leader to set the tone for the future. There are five candidates looking to replace the current party chairman, U.S. Rep. Ken Buck , who decided not to run again for the position. Ranging from a former secretary of state to a three-time congressional candidate, the contenders are known entities to party insiders — and to some voters — and range from hardline conservatives to a centrist Joe Biden endorser. Their divisions and similarities were on display Thursday night at a pizza restaurant in the small Weld County town of Hudson. They debated the minutiae of party politics, such as fundraising and candidate recruitment, as well as false claims about the election. “If Republicans do not accept the fact that Joe Biden won this election and are willing to say it, we’re screwed,” said Jonathan … [Read more...] about Help Wanted: Colorado GOP seeks a leader after years of election losses
Silverii: Effort to recall Rep. Sullivan exposes the worst of the Colorado GOP
How do we, as Coloradans, honor the memory of Alex Sullivan, a young man whose life was cut short on his 27th birthday when he was murdered in the 2012 Aurora theater shooting? What do we do to help our grief-stricken neighbors deal with the loss of a beloved son who died because someone who had absolutely no business anywhere near a gun bought an assault rifle, loaded a 100 round drum, walked into an Aurora movie theater, and opened fire? If you’re the Rocky Mountain Gun Owners or the Colorado Republican Party, you attempt to get Alex’s father, Tom, fired. Tom Sullivan decided to honor his son by fighting for stricter gun safety laws at the national and state level. In 2018, he ran for state representative walking door to door in his conservative Arapahoe County district wearing his slain son’s shoes, telling voters why Colorado needed laws like the “red-flag” bill that Republicans killed that year in the state Senate. Sullivan won — on both fronts. After Douglas County … [Read more...] about Silverii: Effort to recall Rep. Sullivan exposes the worst of the Colorado GOP
A repeal of Colorado’s new national popular vote law appears headed to the November 2020 ballot
Voters likely will decide how Colorado picks a president in addition to which candidate they want for the job when they fill out their ballots in November 2020. That’s because a group called Coloradans Vote say they have more than enough signatures to put a question before voters about repealing a law that would change how the state awards its nine Electoral College votes. “We had 185,000 signatures as of last week and packets are coming in droves every day,” said Rose Pugliese, a Mesa County commissioner and organizer for Coloradans Vote. “We’re definitely on track to break the record” for most signatures ever submitted. To qualify for the ballot, Coloradans Vote needs to submit 124,632 valid signatures from registered voters to the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office by Aug 1. If they’re successful, voters will decide whether the state should stay in something called the national popular vote interstate compact . Democrats added Colorado to the agreement during the … [Read more...] about A repeal of Colorado’s new national popular vote law appears headed to the November 2020 ballot
