Trump, gang violence in Aurora, Republican gains and much more. Here's a glance at some of the Colorado newsmakers and newsbreakers you may recall from 2024: Judicial retention — Among the tasks left for voters on a long ballot was the daunting role they had to decide judicial retention of judges from the Colorado Supreme Court and Co...

Commentary: Pueblo’s Democratic Party faces $2 million campaign finance scandal

The complaint targets the financial activities of the Pueblo County Democratic Central Committee, which operates as an ancillary entity to the Pueblo Democratic Party. Colorado law, specifically Article XXVIII of the State Constitution and 1-45-108 C.R.S., requires transparency in campaign finance r...
