Support the Colorado County Comeback

The Colorado Democratic Party is proud to launch the Colorado County Comeback, a strategic initiative designed to take the fight to elect community-minded folks to battleground county-level district seats. This project will prioritize targeted investments into counties and candidates, comprehensive campaign planning, rigorous training, and robust staff support for dynamic campaigns led by both incumbents and challengers. Ten applicants will be awarded with the initial grants, with more grant opportunities possible later in the year.

Why Counties? Of Colorado’s 192 county commissioners, only 34% are Democrats. The stats only become more dire when considering Boards of Education, city councils, and other county-level positions. While Democrats are focused on bringing down the cost of living and protecting our outdoor spaces, far-right MAGA extremists on commissions are in the pockets of polluters, and holding back progress on delivering federal resources and creating the dynamic new jobs that will revitalize communities across Colorado. It’s time to end the supermajority of far-right Republican commissioners in Colorado.

The next frontier of Colorado politics is local. By focusing on local races, we’ll cultivate grassroots success that can translate into significant victories at the Congressional and statewide levels.

Federal contribution limit to the Colorado Democratic Party: $10,000 per person per calendar year.
