Ritter for Governor Here's an article from the Rocky Mountain News about Bill Ritter and his bid for governor [May 13, 2005, "Ritter to seek guv's office"]. From the article, "As a boy, Ritter said he woke up at 5:30 most mornings to help milk the family's cows. After earning his bachelor's degree at Colorado State University and a law degree at University of Colorado, he became a deputy district attorney. Later, he went to Zambia for three years with a Catholic missionary team. There, he set up a nutrition program, which evolved into an AIDS clinic. On his return he worked for the U.S. attorney. In 1993, Gov. Roy Romer appointed him district attorney, even though he was considered a long shot for the nod. He ran unopposed in 1994, then defeated Craig Silverman in a bitter re-election campaign in 1996. In 2000, he ran unopposed and won a third term. He was term-limited and stepped down in January when Mitch Morrissey took over. Ritter said education and immigration need immediate attention." Coyote Gulch's former boss, Bruce Alexander, is on the list of supporters. Category: Denver November 2006 Election 6:12:17 AM    comment []
