A place for news and discussion about politics in the Centennial State.

Posts must be explicitly related to Coloradan politics. This includes the interaction of federal and state politics and that state’s congressional delegation. Local politics are permissible if they would reasonably be of interest to a statewide audience.
Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive.
Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed.
Posts must have appropriate source flair selected from the provided list. If the source could have two flairs, select the one you think better represents the post’s content. Eg, an announcement from the Governor’s office released through the Denver Post should be tagged '‘Official’ rather than ‘News’.
Be civil.
No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments.
Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
No hate speech, slurs, or abusive language. This will result in a ban.
