Colorado Democrats’ first legislative supermajority is within reach. They’re not spending like they want it.
Source Scout · The Colorado Sun reports: Telling stories that matter in a dynamic, evolving state. Republicans are spending more than $1.6 million to defend a state Senate district in Douglas County they have held comfortably for the last 15 years in what appears to be a desperate attempt to prevent a Democratic supermajority at the Colorado Capitol. Democrats are just three House seats and one Senate seat shy of their first bicameral supermajority, meaning they would control two-thirds of the seats in both chambers of the legislature, which would allow them to override vetoes from the next governor and put constitutional amendments on the ballot without any Republican votes.
