Denver November 2004 Election
Early voting continues today. Vote early and vote often.
Here's a story from the Rocky Mountain News about Ken Salazar's Sleepless in Colorado tour that started last week.
Pete Coors is in the Rocky for lending his campaign another $500,00 [October 25, 2004, "Coors ups the ante"]. From the article, "Pete Coors dropped another $500,000 of his personal fortune into his U.S. Senate campaign this weekend, making him one of a handful of candidates nationwide to trigger the 'millionaire's amendment.' That provision of federal campaign finance law allows Coors' opponent, Ken Salazar, to at least triple the amount he can collect from individual donors - something Coors said in August he didn't want to do. Salazar's campaign moved quickly to counter, phoning and e-mailing big donors to ask for more cash, and Salazar accused his opponent of trying to buy his way to Washington." Here's the coverage from the Denver Post [October 25, 2004, "Coors' open wallet"].
