Help Take Colorado’s 2010 Political Temperature
New & Improved Online Survey to Become Monthly Feature
- Which way are Colorado conservatives leaning after the shakeup in the governor’s race?
- Is U.S. Senate candidate Jane Norton winning over the loyalties of her party’s base?
- Have new candidates in CD 7 and the treasurer’s races made an impact?
…And more!
A sleeker, friendlier 2010 version of the Survey of Colorado’s Political Temperature launches today. Widespread input is crucial to its success.
For the fourth time in six months, two of the state’s most established and respected conservative political bloggers invite the state’s political observers and activists to share their opinions in an online survey of issues, candidates, and trends. The January edition features fewer issue statements, and introduces head-to-head general election predictions between different candidates in the races for various offices.
The survey is available online at:

Recipients are invited not only to take the survey, but also to pass it on to anyone they know who might appreciate the opportunity. Postings on email, Facebook and Twitter are encouraged. Still, only one vote per computer or unique IP is allowed to help ensure accuracy.
“There’s been a slew of changes in the political landscape, and we want to know how it’s affected the views of those who have been paying the most attention,” said Michael Sandoval of Slapstick Politics (http://slapstickpolitics.blogspot.com).
The first survey launched in July, followed by editions in September and November. But since the arrival of 2010 brings a faster, more furious pace to electoral developments, a new Survey of Colorado’s Political Temperature will be unveiled the first Thursday of each month.
“Colorado political junkies now will have a monthly ritual they can look forward to,” said Ben DeGrow of the blog Mount Virtus (http://bendegrow.com).
The survey will be open until Friday, January 15, 5 PM local time. The survey is not affiliated with any political candidate, party organization, or any third-party entity.
Sandoval and DeGrow are both members of the Rocky Mountain Alliance 2.0 (http://rma2.blogspot.com) and the People’s Press Collective (http://peoplespresscollective.org), informal networks of Right-leaning, pro-liberty new media activists in Colorado. Poll editing graciously provided by Mary Ila MacFarlane.
