Reader “Wild” Bill Baldwin dropped this nugget in a comment:
“According to the Boone County (IN) tax collector, John or Shannon Watts no longer own property there. According to the Boulder County (CO) tax collector, John and Shannon Watts do own property there. They live in Colorado’s 2nd congressional (deep blue) district.
It certainly wouldn’t be out of the realm of possibility that she try to unseat Cory Gardner in 2020.”
So I checked her Linkedin account:
It seems she officially has moved to the People’s Republic of Denver. Apparently Bloomberg feels that Colorado is now under his control and can get her favorite political courtesan elected to office.
Shannon is not going for a paltry State Congress seat but fully fledged Federal. The only question remaining: Is this vetted by Colorado Democrats or are we watching another Carpetbagging Attack?

Might one ask as to just who John and Shannon Watts might be?
I’m glad she’s out of Indiana. She was nothing but a Dem hack from Missouri. She’s not a stay at home mom. She runs a political PR firm.
I don’t think that Cory would be hard to beat, being the “Never Trump” Rino that he is. I for one won’t vote for him. What has he done except complain about our President.
Not so much john as far as I know, but she is the mouthpiece for nannie bloomers and his anti-gun BS. She’s supposedly a normal everyday stay at home mom who abhors guns and the violence “they” cause. A very nasty piece of work. Spreading hate and discontent as needed. Moms Against Guns. aka: Moms Demand Action. I think that’s the correct designation.
It’s comforting that she has left the Hoosier State, but how clever could she be if she thought setting up shop in Boone County was a good idea?
Shannon who?
Funny, I don't see them demanding police sweeps of public housing and gangbanger neighborhoods and hangouts, only more gun laws. And since only the law-abiding obey the laws...
Housewives against guns= HAG.

A couple of observations: It's been suggested that an additional reason for her having decamped from the Hoosier state was that she was about to become a test case for Indiana state felony criminal charges for soliciting violations of Indiana's recent Firearms owners protection act. In Indiana, such violations by elected officials and public servants are a level 6 felony, can be grounds for state conspiracy law violations, and can be grounds for state civil rights civil actions for triple damages- including triple times an attorney's typical $295-$495 per hour charges. The November election of Republican governor Holcomb as Mike Pence's replacement and his working relationship with Indiana's Republican Attorney General was likely no great comfort to her either.
As for her anticipated political activities in her new home in the Rockies, observers in neighboring Wyoming have been watching with interest and expecting a possible replacement candidate for CO House member Jared Pollis next year. Whether Pollis intends to take his half-billion dollar fortune and buy himself a higher office and the newcomer is deemed a good politically correct possible replacement for the rich white guy, [who is a self-admitted gay] or it's an out-and-out Democrat primary challenge catfight funded with out-of-state money for the office is yet to be seen.
Pollis may have seen the political handwriting on the wall; a year ago he was complaining about his fellow Dems being outnumbered by the Repubs and being unable to expand gun control in Colorado, so it may be that the Colorado party leadership wants someone more rabid on the subject and the screechy newcomer might be thought a good pick to fit the bill. But a try at a Senate seat within a year of her arrival in the state would be a pretty large bite for her first effort.
Troughton. She uses her married name Watts for her Mommies Demand Attention efforts, but when she hung out her shingle in the public relations biz, she used the name Troughton, which was how she'd been known when she handled public relations for the Wellpoint health insurance giant. Background here.
Correct. See FReepPosts #10 and #11 above.
Well if the CO dems are lookin’ for rabid, she certainly fills that requirement. If nothing else, they are persistent.
Shannon is gone?
Well, reportedly from the Hossier state anyway.
