hi all! I know that most everyone is not thrilled with what Twitter has become. I've been using Bluesky for the past year and it's proven to be a really solid platform and by far my favorite of the alternatives – at Boulder, CO

Democrats overperformed in Colorado compared to the USA b/c Polis & CO Dems stay ruthlessly on message that the goal is to "save people money" Expanding healthcare, more housing, more transit, better schools, childcare, etc., all packaged as "saving people money" TAKE NOTES

And again, Democrats fix the economy and hand it over to Republicans to destroy. Each and every time.

Let's be honest here: This was an across-the-board shift away from the Democratic Party. Not just one demo (though Hispanics shifted the most). Two main reasons: Inflation and Democratic priorities and language that just doesn't appeal to non-college people (esp. men).

As you may have read, our colleagues in the Tech Guild are on strike. While they don't play a role in the model itself, they built and maintain the infrastructure that feeds us data and lets us publish on the internet

Wow, a huge voting rights change in Colorado: people in jail (often held pretrial) are eligible to vote, but almost always are not given ballots. Colorado adopted a law this year to require voting centers in jail. Read about it here: boltsmag.org/colorado-voting…

Colorado Adopts First-in-Nation Mandate for Voting Centers in Jails

People held in county jails typically retain the right to vote but face enormous hurdles to actually casting a ballot. Lawmakers passed a bill meant to remedy the issue.

*3* people, out of more than 1,000 eligible, voted from the Jefferson County (Denver suburbs) jail in November 2022, per the county clerk. Colorado recently passed a law forcing jails to offer in-person voting. Now, JeffCo reports hundreds of jail voters so far this cycle:

This is pretty wild. The GOP acknowledged that their failure to contest the early vote in 2020 was a massive liability. They invested heavily in it this time around. Yet as it draws to a close, they are now running behind 2020 margins for the first time.

Via TargetEarly, it is now official - Dems head into E-Day in a stronger position in the battleground early vote than 2020. More D post-Dobbs overperformance. Rs big campaign to make gains in the early vote has failed, and their EV "memos" are just pure bullshit.

LOL - Atlas's last Pennsylvania poll simply eliminated half the state's black population from its likely voter screen.
