Denver November 2004 Election
Monday, July 12, is the last day to register to vote in the August 10th primary. If you don't register you can't help choose the candidates for November and you'll be leaving it up to people that are dazed and confused about elections. 
Attorney General, Ken Salazar, has a campaign weblog.
Update: There was a debate amongst the four main candidates for Ben Nighthorse Campbell's U.S. Senate seat last Thursday. The 'Ol Coyote was somewhere near Rabbit Ears Pass communing with nature, but MakesMeRalph was keeping track of our favorite campaigners.
Update: Here's an article on the Denver District Attorney race from the Rocky Mountain News [July 5, 2004, "Lawns serve as signs of the times for DA hopefuls"]. From the article, "If signs are any indication, the hot race in Denver right now is for district attorney. Democrats Beth McCann, Mitch Morrissey and John Walsh have been walking neighborhoods, knocking on doors and planting signs in willing lawns. There are no Republican candidates."
Update: FasTracks is on the fall ballot, according to the Rocky Mountain News [July 2, 2004, "FasTracks plan receives green light for fall ballot"].
Update: The New York times reports, "In a campaign season of polarization, when Republicans and Democrats seem far apart on issues like Iraq, the economy and leadership style, it is perhaps not surprising that the parties find themselves on different sides in the politics of software as well. The Web sites of Senator John Kerry and the Democratic National Committee run mainly on the technology of the computing counterculture: open-source software that is distributed free, and improved and debugged by far-flung networks of programmers. In the other corner, the Web sites of President Bush and the Republican National Committee run on software supplied by the corporate embodiment of big business - Microsoft. The two sides are defined largely by their approach to intellectual property. Fans of open-source computing regard its software as a model for the future of business, saying that its underlying principle of collaboration will eventually be used in pharmaceuticals, entertainment and other industries whose products are tightly protected by patents or copyrights."
