NEW: Denver Councilwoman Shontel Lewis will run against Mayor Mike Johnston in 2027, according to an affidavit filed with the city yesterday. The decision means she won’t serve another term on the city council.
I reached out to Justice Dems and learned some key info:
1. This was a poll of 307 likely Dem voters in CD1. There are 416,000 eligible voters in the primary
2. The margin of error was +/- 6 percentage points. That’s larger than the gap between Kiros/Degette in these results
🚨WE HAVE A NEW POLL IN #CO01🚨
Justice Democrat @MelatKirosCO is up FIVE POINTS against 30-year incumbent Diana DeGette.
Diana's been in office Melat's whole life & Denverites are ready for bolder leadership unbought by Big Pharma & the real estate lobby.
11 Days. Let's win.
Denver Mayor Mike Johnston announced this morning his office is extending the city's contract with Flock, a company that installs AI-powered license-plate readers, without City Council approval. #denver
