.@ConorMichael28, the reboot of NY football is well underway. I'll also be re-watching Hard Knocks Offseason With the Giants to see how Schoen and Daboll got it so wrong. Yikes! 🏈

What happens to your ballot once it's mailed off? How secure are mail-in ballots in Colorado? In this special edition of Colorado Inside Out: On the Road with host @kyle__dyer and election administration experts, we answer just that. Join us tonight at 8 p.m. or streaming online

Great explainer! We are E-13, but don't forget that Election Day is the mountaintop. Lots of work on the ascent and lots of work on the descent. This thing isn't official until right before Thanksgiving. #COPolitics

A little mood lightener at E-18. Who remembers George? The late JFK Jr.'s political mag? Coming across lots of memorabilia, including the inaugural issue of George mucking around in my storage unit. #COPolitics
