Two Toss-Up Races + defeating Lauren Boebert

Howdy John,  Next year, Colorado will host not one, but TWO competitive Congressional races. In 2022, Colorado’s 3rd and 8th Congressional districts were decided by razor thin margins – and its looking like 2024 will be no different. Cook Political Report has rated both of these races as “Toss Ups” …

Fwd: One of our most important jobs.

Quick update for you, John. We want to make sure you saw this email we sent recently. As we prepare for our end-of-month deadline tonight at midnight, it's even more imperative that we can continue registering voters and turning them out to elect and re-elect Democrats across the state.  It costs an…

Two tossup races right here in CO

Howdy John, Shad here.   We’ve got just a few days before we hit our August end-of-month fundraising deadline and I wanted to remind you how competitive Colorado will be in the 2024 election. We will need your help to win, and Colorado is certainly not a safe blue state. Next year, Colorado will lik…

It’s back to school time!

Howdy John,  For many Colorado families, August is back-to-school month which means shopping for school supplies, new morning carpool routines, college move-in days and picking out first-day-of-school outfits!  Colorado Democrats know that the rising cost of education and childcare, mounting teacher…

Help us flip 546 votes

Howdy John,  We could use your help securing 546 votes. Why?  That’s how many votes MAGA extremist Lauren Boebert won by in 2022 in Colorado's 3rd Congressional District. One of our party’s top priorities in 2024 is flipping CO-03 blue and forcing Lauren Boebert into an early retirement.   That’s wh…

Colorado is not a blue state (yet)

Howdy John,  It’s true. Colorado is still a toss-up state. In fact, our state will host two of the most competitive Congressional races in the country in 2024.  Cook Political Report recently shifted Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District – Lauren Boebert’s district – from “lean Republican” to a “tos…

MAGA Republicans are coming for CO’s new Congressional seat

Howdy John,  In 2024, Colorado will host some of the most competitive Congressional races in the country.

MAGA Republicans are coming for CO’s new Congressional seat

Howdy John,  The Congressional race in CO-08 will be one of 2024’s most contested races in the country. It’s a top target for Republicans who are already scheming to take the seat from Democrats. Keeping CO-08 blue is critical for Democrats if we want to win back the House majority. That’s exactly w…
