John, I wanted to take a few minutes to share some updates with you from last week’s election:
Most importantly, Colorado had record Democratic turnout for an odd-year election, with more Democrats voting this year than in 2021 and 2019, and we also outperformed Republican turnout! If you voted, made phone calls, donated, or talked to your friends and family about voting, this result is thanks to your work. We’ve worked hard this year laying the groundwork for Tuesday’s election, and we’re so grateful to have us with you. We’ve worked hard this year with the belief that odd years are not off years -- they are build years. We launched an unprecedented Get-Out-The-Vote operation to turn out Democrats across the state and support our local candidates everywhere.
We reached nearly 100,000 voters in advance of Tuesday’s election, continuing our work to engage Democrats in elections that are traditionally low turnout. The next frontier of Colorado politics is local, and we’re proud of the work we’ve done to turn Democrats out this year. We’ll continue to build on this success next year. |
Now for a small sampling of exciting results: -
Democrats swept the Douglas County and Adams 12 school board races. Progressive candidates won three seats on the Gunnison County school board. We also won seats in Prowers County, Mancos, Jefferson County, Loveland Cherry Creek, Greeley and more!
- We elected city councilors and mayors in Las Animas, Arvada, Lakewood, Broomfield, Thornton, Westminster, Loveland -- and that's just a start.
- There were many other wins, and many races continue to be too close to call with a lot of votes left to be counted. After this week's voter protection work, we'll be better able to share Democratic gains statewide.
As we celebrate Tuesday’s wins and look toward the future, here’s what’s next: -
Tracking of all the close races across the state – We’re continuing to track close races and we’ll be making sure every vote is counted by running a ballot curing voter protection program.
-
Defeating Lauren Boebert – We’ve made giving her the boot one of our top priorities. If you’re ready to help right now, chip in $5.46 to The 546 Project so that we can oust Boebert from office.
-
Re-electing President Joe Biden and Yadira Caraveo – 2024 races will likely be decided by the smallest of margins. We’re starting to organize earlier than ever before, so we can build the infrastructure we need to re-elect President Biden and send Yadira Caraveo, back to Congress. If you want to chip in to help us do that, we’d love your support. Click here to do so now >>
