?Colorado has structurally changed in population with many many folks from California moving there.

And they're all Democrats, right? No Republicans trying to escape liberal insanity?

I’m in Durango and have seen Trump ads every day for about a month. As many Trump ads as Biden ads.

That's encouraging, thanks.

You’re welcome.

And it’s looking good for pistol packing Lauren Boebert to take the 3rd Congressional District after Scott Tipton was primeried out.

Yes, Lauren. [dreamy sigh] Trump won her CO-03 district 52-40, but it should be more competitive now with no incumbent.

Good point on incumbents. But the Trump factor has conservatives here, like everywhere, fired up like never before. She’s likely to receive more votes than Tipton ever did, IMO.

Thanks for all your good work and input.

Nice! thanks.

My pleasure. Took a peek on Ballotpedia, CO-03. Lauren has raised some good $$, but her opponent has raised about 75% more and had about 50% more cash on hand as of 9/30. Lauren's opponent lost to Scott Tipton in a good Dem year (2018) 51-44%. Tipton earned 54.6% in 2016 and 58% in 2014.

Thanks for that encouraging info.

Do you think Gardner can pull it off?

Do you think Gardner can pull it off?

Yes, but I would feel a lot better if the Trump campaign held a rally in CO. To show everyone they really believe it's winnable. I think for Sen. Gardner to win, Trump needs to win CO and pull Cory along.

I'll remind everyone again, four years ago Sen. Ron Johnson in WI led in exactly one poll, while former Sen. Russ Feingold led in 29 polls, many by double digits. Russ won by 3 1/2 points because Trump and the RNC had a strong get-out-the-vote operation in WI.

I agree and maybe we’ll be pleasantly surprised with a visit by someone.

Really much of the migration to Colorado really got steam when they legalized pot. They came from California and everywhere else.

I live in Boulder, I’ve seen maybe 6 Biden signs, and on weekends there’s been Trumpsters rallying on the corner of 28th & Pearl, lots.
I live in a liberal mecca, and I’m not worried about DJT winning CO.
MAGA!

Home of the Buffaloes! I have a friend who works at the university. Hope you’re right!
