Four super PACs tied to Democrats and Republicans in the state legislature and 2020 ballot committees reported millions in donations in the latest reports
The battle for control of the Colorado Senate in the 2020 election is drawing big money ahead of the November election, and the same is true with a handful of ballot measures.
The latest campaign finance reports show Republicans hold a slight edge against Democrats in terms of super PAC fundraising through the end of 2019.
The Republican-aligned Senate Majority Fund raised nearly $679,000 in 2019, compared to the $667,000 haul by its Democratic counterpart, Leading Colorado Forward, according to campaign finance reports filed last week. The Democratic group also received an additional $40,000 transfer from its predecessor, Coloradans for Fairness,
The two parties are eyeing a handful of seats that will hold the key to controlling the chamber, where Democrats hold a 19-16 majority. The Democratic majority in the House is much wider, and is expected to hold.
The unlimited contributions raised by these committees play a key role in legislative elections and pay for mailers, TV commercials and more in competitive House and Senate districts.

This Saturday at the NSRF we will hear from Colorado State Senator Beth Martinez Humenik, and Adams County Commissioner candidate Joyce Thomas. Both are on the ballot this November.
Beth won SD-24 four years ago giving Republicans control in the Colorado State Senate. If she isn’t re-elected, the Senate could shift to Democrat control and that means more government spending, higher taxes, more regulations, and laws as Democrats try to control your life.
Of the five AdCo Commissioners, four are Democrat and Joyce wants to add another Republican voice to the county’s governing body.
Both (and all Republican) candidates need your support, time, and money to stop the blue team.
We’ll also receive an update on the oil and gas presentation from a prior meeting.
The NSRF meets on the second Saturday of every month from 9:00 am-11:00 am at Amazing Grace Church, 541 E. 99th Place in Thornton. Use the north door to enter. Admission is $5 per person. Coffee, orange juice, bottled water, fruit, & pastries are included with your admission.
Next month we will hear from Greg Brophy on limiting large sums of money in political contests.

The 8 who would be governor: Candidates square off at CoPo/Gazette forum
Author: Ernest Luning – May 19, 2018 – Updated: 3 hours ago

For the first time, all four Republicans and four Democrats running for governor of Colorado squared off during a pair of debates Saturday in Colorado Springs, discussing policies ranging from transportation funding to gun violence, taxes to President Donald Trump.
The candidate forum was presented by Colorado Politics, The Gazette and El Pomar’s Forum for Civic Advancement.
Disagreements among members of the same party were few, and sparks only flew a couple of times during the exchanges, which took place just over two weeks before voters start receiving primary ballots in the mail — although the differences between the two parties were stark.
The two 90-minute debates bookended the inaugural Colorado Civic Barbecue, a chance for several hundred members of the community to rub shoulders and listen to live bluegrass music between the doubleheader at the historic Penrose House near The Broadmoor hotel.
