Twenty-one candidates running in Denver’s first open mayoral race since 2011 – IOTW Report

Twenty-one candidates running in Denver’s first open mayoral race since 2011

But first, let’s talk about Colorado Springs.

Did you know Tig Tiegen is running for mayor of Colorado Springs?

Yeah, that Tig Tiegen.

Quiet and precise, Tig was the most experienced Annex Security Team member. Defying a stand down order, he along with his team, rushed into burning buildings to defend the Consulate and fought arm-in-arm in defense of the Annex, holding off the radical Islamic terrorist until CIA employees could be safely evacuated. No American forces showed up to assist the security team during those 13 hours of combat and four Americans lost their lives; Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, Information Officer Sean Smith, and two CIA operatives, Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods, both former Navy Seals. If not for the heroic acts of Tig and his team that number would be much greater. Tig personally saved the lives of many of his team and was paramount in rescuing over two dozen others. He received the Award for Heroism and Valor for his bravery that night.

Back to Denver:

JTN: Twenty-one candidates are running in the general election for mayor of Denver, Colorado, on April 4, 2023. If no candidate receives a majority of votes, the top-two vote-getters will advance to a runoff on June 6, 2023.

Incumbent Mayor Michael Hancock, a Democrat, first elected in 2011, is term-limited. This is Denver’s fifth open mayoral election since 1959, the last time the city elected a Republican mayor.

Denverite‘s Kyle Harris wrote, “Denverites are worried about the city’s affordability … public safety and rising crime … [and] homelessness. People want solutions, and it’s clear that the people of the city understand that the mayor’s seat can try to tackle many of these issues.”

Former Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce CEO Kelly Brough, state Rep. Leslie Herod, former state Sen. Michael Johnston, At-large City Councilwoman Deborah Ortega, and Army veteran Andy Rougeot lead the field in fundraising and media coverage. While mayoral elections in Denver are officially nonpartisan, Brough, Herod, Johnston, and Ortega are Democrats, and Rougeot is a Republican. MORE

5 Comments on Twenty-one candidates running in Denver’s first open mayoral race since 2011

  1. Hancock, like just about every black mayor, walks away from a smoldering shitpile. He not only carried the banner of racial bigotry of his predecessors, the scums Hinkenlooper and Webb, but managed to make Denver even worse with his racial and communist crap.

    He actually tried to make a case for allowing bums to shit on the sidewalks and the commies and hispanic city council fags went with it.

    It’s now infested with white liberal homos, latino malcontents and feral blacks. You have to be wealthy or out of your mind to live almost anywhere in the metro area.

    Last place I lived in Denver was in NoDo, about 8 blocks north of central downtown. The illegals were so bad, I finally said fuck this and that was 2001! I lived in a virtual warehouse fortress. I’d go up to my roof evenings and watch the lunacy taking place around me. Imagine now after 12 years of another black scum mayor.

    Radioactive shithole

    I moved there in 1970 and believe or not, Denver had a Republican congressman. I could walk around my neighborhood anytime without bangers or low lifes. dems are scum, they destroy EVERYTHING they touch. I could almost cry.

  2. Last time we were in Denver was 2017 and it had become a typical liberal shi#&hole.
    Too bad.

    Tig Tiegan knows how to watch his back. Good thing too. Hillary won’t be happy with him getting into politics.

  3. Ever seen a liberal city all of a sudden become conservative? The homeless disappear, everyone is employed, no welfare, drugs or alcohol, no jails, no crime. If you believe that, vote for me.
