Despite growing voter disenchantment with Democrats, who have overseen spiraling housing prices, a rampant rise in homelessness and an economy that is now shedding jobs, whoever becomes the Democratic nominee is heavily favored to win. Colorado has not elected a Republican governor in more than 20 years, and the Republicans vying to become governor include a state legislator who has warned of a pedophile ring in the State Capitol, and a pastor who claims he was forced to murder a man at age 7.

A screenshot of a press release reading: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 2, 2026 DNC Releases Comprehensive List of States Where Gas Prices Are Below $3 a Gallon While the Trump administration predicted that gas prices would fall back under $3 a gallon by summer, costs at the pump have continued to soar in states across the country. Today, the DNC released a comprehensive list of states where gas prices have dropped below $3 a gallon since the beginning of Donald Trump's war with lran. This comes after Trump administration officials repeatedly promised that costs would come down, and Energy Secretary Chris Wright even said “there’s a very good chance” that gas prices would be back under $3 a gallon by summer. States Where Gas Prices Are Below $3 a Gallon 1. [end of list] In reality, the cost of gas has spiked by 50% since Trump started his deadly, unpopular, and unnecessary war with Iran. Now, the average price at the pump is $4.29 per gallon. It’s no wonder that the average American household has already spent $450 more on gas and energy. While Trump brags that he doesn’t “think about Americans’financial situation”even a little bit, families continue cutting back on travel, gas, food, and other essentials.
A screenshot of a fundraising email from Phil Weiser for Governor, here's the text: IAN, it looks like we hit a nerve. Senator Bennet's campaign is launching a set of baseless attacks — and it's not a good look. He can't justify his votes in Washington that have enabled the Trump administration to harm Colorado. Rather than defend his votes, his team is pulling out the old Washington, DC establishment playbook: Engage in baseless attacks in an attempt to distract voters from actions that he cannot defend.  In Colorado, we can smell BS from a mile away (yes, sometimes quite literally). Please chip in $9 (or any amount) here to get the facts out, stand with Phil, and help us fight back against Bennet’s desperate distractions in the final four weeks before the primary election >>> DONATE $9 OTHER AMOUNT Here are the facts, IAN, straight up: 👉 Bennet voted for eight of Trump’s cabinet secretaries — putting him in the top nine out of 47 Senate Democrats who have voted the most to support Trump’s cabinet.   👉 Bennet earned an F grade from Demand Justice during the first two years of Trump's first term — because he voted for over two-thirds of Trump’s judicial nominees.   👉 Bennet is out of step with what Coloradans want and need from our next governor in this moment. Coloradans are sick of establishment Washington, DC politics and baseless attacks pushed by out-of-state billionaires. It’s time for a fighter like Phil, who is clear about the fight we are in — chip in $9 (or anything) here to stand with us >>>
