2004 Presidential Election
Taegan Goddard: "A new National Public Radio poll shows the presidential race in a statisical dead heat, with Bush at 49% and Kerry at 48%. However, the poll also shows that Kerry leads Bush 'among independents and voters in battleground states -- the states that were the closest in the 2000 election.' Here are the latest state polls: Arizona: Bush 44%, Kerry 41% (Arizona Republic), Rhode Island: Kerry 49%, Bush 25%, Nader 5% (Brown University)."
Senator Kerry leads President Bush 53% to 45% according to a new ABC News/Washington Post poll. You numbers junkies will go crazy with this article. Heh.

Colorado Water
Here's a story about the Colorado Water Trust's first big deal, from the Rocky Mountain News [June 21, 2004, "Ranch's water may be used to preserve scenic river"]. From the article, "This year, if all goes well, a portion of the Mosers' ranch water will become the property of Colorado, dedicated forever to helping maintain the health of Summit County's scenic Blue River as it winds along Colorado 9 between Silverthorne and Heeney. In trying to transfer the water to the state, the Mosers are casting their fate into the hands of the fledgling Colorado Water Trust. The proposed transfer is the trust's first effort at protecting state streams and will do much to determine whether the nonprofit enterprise succeeds or fails."
