2003 Denver Mayoral Election
John Hickenlooper is first out of the gate with Television according to the Denver Post. Here's a companion article from the Rocky Mountain News. He is trying to build name recognition amongst the voters. Most of the mayoral candidates have run for office before so they have a head start in some ways. Why doesn't he post a link to the ad on his website? Many would download the ad and watch it. This has worked great for Apple computer and their switch ads. If someone sees one on TV they are able to watch it again on their computer on their timetable. Make sure you post your ad in a cross platform file format John.
The Post is also running an in-depth piece on Phil Perington, candidate for Mayor. The article focuses on his past clashes with party leaders. They also mention that he's been successful in real estate and in managing a couple of campaigns, including Jerry Brown's campaign in Colorado. Perington resigned from the Democratic party in December and says, "party politics and city government don't mix." Good luck with that one Phil.
The Rocky Mountain News is reporting that Jeremy Stefanek, Dwight Henson, Phil Perington, and Thomas Spear will all have to wait at least another day to find out if they made the ballot. The blizzard still has city offices closed. Stefanek is much more confident of making the ballot than he was last week due to what he called the, "Boigon Break." Boigon was allowed on even though her campaign did not follow the letter of the law regarding signatures.
