I'm honestly not sure. I moved here in Patsy Schroeder's reign and learned pretty quick that this is a blue state dominated by the "front range" liberals (think lemon boy). I dont remember who was before Hickenlooper and I found out after the election that our new gov is openly gay. I dont care but you can see i dont think anything consequential happens in Colorado politics and ignore the front range. Im sure the governor comes here on election years.
Im here on the "west slope" where rednecks, malcontents, and old hippies hide out. Big time red county. I choose to ignore Denver until they try to raise my taxes, but I do vote in every election.
Gary Hart was from here.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
