Denver November 2004 Election
Senator-elect, Ken Salazar, has picked two Washington insiders for his staff, according to the Rocky Mountain News [December 1, 2004, "Salazar names 2 to staff"]. From the article, "On Tuesday, Salazar named Colorado Deputy Attorney General Ken Lane to be his Senate chief of staff in Washington and campaign manager Jim Carpenter to be state director based in Denver...Lane has a long resume as a lawyer and aide to top Democrats. After leaving the Pueblo law firm of Kettelkamp & Brown, he served nine years for Campbell in both the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate, the last five as his Senate chief of staff...Carpenter was once an aide to former U.S. Sen. Tim Wirth. In 1992, he signed up to manage Wirth's expected re-election bid, but then Wirth had a last-minute change of heart that opened the door for a surprising victory by Campbell, then a Democratic congressman."
