Dec 06, 2020 DENVER, Colo. — Gov. Jared Polis' office said First Gentleman Marlon Reis is now in the hospital due to worsening COVID-19 symptoms.
Both Reis and Gov. Jared Polis tested positive for COVID-19 last Saturday. At the time, Polis said both of their symptoms were mild.
Over the last 24 hours, Reis started to experience a slightly worsening cough and shortness of breath eight days after being diagnosed with COVID-19, according to the press release.
As a precaution, Gov. Polis drove Reis to the hospital in his personal vehicle to be reviewed and treated. Polis is not experiencing any additional symptoms at this time.
Reis said in a message posted on his Facebook page Sunday the trip to the hospital was precautionary:
“Friends,
Today, on day eight of my bout with Coronavirus, I experienced a worsening cough and shortness of breath. My doctor suggested that as a precaution I go to the hospital, so a few hours ago Jared drove me to the hospital where I was admitted and am now being closely monitored.
“In addition to your kind thoughts and prayers for me and everyone else afflicted by this horrible virus, please be extra careful to avoid getting it. Wearing a mask properly reduces your risk by half! Also, make sure to avoid social gatherings (right now one in forty Coloradans are contagious with Coronavirus) and keep a distance from others.
“I hope to be home soon!”
Polis also posted a message to Reis’s Facebook page:
“Marlon wanted me to convey how much he appreciates the hundreds of people who have reached out to wish him well on email, Facebook, and text. Reading the kind words and thoughts brings great joy to him as he recuperates. He also wanted me to share that he hopes to be well enough to reply in a few days but for now he wants me to thank everyone and let everyone know that he feels the love. -Jared”
Which does not matter at all. Denver and Boulder Counties can outvote the rest of the State. Might even be using legal votes to do that.
Then again, Dominion Software has their North American headquarters located in Denver, and that is the voting tabulation system used in Colorado. We also have a "vote-by-mail" system and a bunch of counties with more registered voters than legal residents of voting age.
Democrats own the Governor's office as well as super-majorities in both House and Senate of the State Legislature. They can do whatever they want. Republicans are mere decorations in the State politics.
Oddly, the Boulder Republican Party chapter has a very active "resistance" movement ongoing. For people who have absolutely no prospects of victory, they are fighting harder than anybody else in the State. Good for them!
And Colorado’s secretary of state Jena Griswold is married to a guy named Mohamed.
