Denver November 2004 Election
Luis Toro, writes on the 5280 Weblog, "Speaker of the Colorado House Andrew Romanoff of Denver is making it clear he has no intention of being a one-term wonder in his new position. He is quickly moving to solidify Democratic control over the House by taking the unusual step of naming a freshman, Bernie Buescher of Grand Junction, to the powerful Joint Budget Committee. Romanoff understands that Grand Junction is traditionally Republican territory, and putting Buescher on the JBC will help Buescher when he has to run for re-election. The move also sends a message that the Democrats intend to develop a political presence west of the Continental Divide."
