GOP Chair Horn: President Trump delivered in 100 days – now Colorado Conservatives must lead the charge

By Brita Horn | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice “We will close the border. We will stop the invasion of illegals into our country,” President Trump said at an Aurora, Colorado, rally on October 12, 2024. That promise was central to his push for a second term. Now, just over 100 days in, he’s delivering – tightening the border and reversing years of neglect. The previous administration under President Joe Biden left a legacy of border chaos. Millions of illegal immigrants crossed into the United States, overwhelming not only border communities but also cities and states far from the frontier. Colorado has become a hotspot in the fight against organized crime and trafficking.  In Aurora, Tren de Aragua gang members were arrested after violent apartment takeovers. I...

Proctor: Colorado’s conservative comeback starts at the ballot box

By David Proctor | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice One of the greatest challenges facing conservatives in Colorado is voter turnout. We have seen this time and time again. While progressive groups have successfully mobilized their base, many conservatives fail to vote regularly, leaving elections decided by a mobilized opposition.  As of February, of this year, Colorado has approximately 942,766 active registered Republican voters which shows that we continue to face an uphill battle in statewide elections. Meanwhile, Democrats continue to hold the registration advantage and additionally there are 1.9 million active registered independent voters.  This means it is not only imperative for conservatives to turn out our base, but also to gain the support of persuadab...

Overbeck: DougCo school board Conservative leadership delivers results – academic gains and parent power

By Joy Overbeck | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice As soon as they were elected in 2021, the four new Conservative Douglas County School District (DCSD) directors were faced with the major issues of the time: the Covid pandemic, and the twisted woke movement to reduce parents’ influence by infecting students with leftist political ideologies.     They began honoring their campaign promises on day one by keeping the Douglas County schools open, knowing that in-person classes instead of ineffective online lessons would lead to solid improvements in student achievement.  They also ended the useless Covid masking and vaccines dictated by the previous leftist board, who had sued the health department to keep kids masked and schools closed.   ...

Colorado conservatives face get-out-the-vote gap as election looms

By Heidi Ganahl | Rocky Mountain Voice With just over 50 days remaining before a critical election, Colorado's conservatives are grappling with a major organizational gap in their get-out-the-vote (GOTV) efforts. Internal battles over leadership have left the state party in limbo, while national political grassroots groups—typically a key source of support—are largely absent. Despite some outside help for two congressional races, the lack of coordinated efforts has left conservative activists and volunteers across Colorado asking: How can they make a difference with so little time left? This disconnection comes at a frustrating moment for many conservative voters, who feel that Colorado’s increasingly blue voting trends have diminished the state’s role in national elections. Without ...
