FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Aurora Ogg July 30, 2019 (720) 327-7233 LeGare Endorses Coffman for Mayor (AURORA, CO) -- Aurora Mayor Bob LeGare today announced that he is endorsing former Congressman Mike Coffman as the best choice to succeed him for Mayor of the City of Aurora in the upcoming November election. “Today, I’m proud to announce my endorsement of Mike Coffman for Mayor of the City of Aurora. I’ve known Mike for over 35 years and I know that he will make a great mayor because he has the leadership, the dedication, and the vision to keep our city moving in the right direction,” said LeGare. LeGare, a longtime Aurora resident, was first elected to the Aurora City Council in 1995 serving for two four-year terms. After an eight-year absence from the Aurora City Council, LeGare was again elected to the Aurora City Council in 2011 and re-elected in 2015. Following the death of Mayor Steve Hogan last year, LeGare was selected by the City Council to be the Mayor and to complete Hogan’s final four-year term that will be up in December of this year. LeGare said that he first me Coffman in the early 1980’s, just after Coffman returned to Aurora from having served overseas in the Marines. They got to know each other while serving on the Government Affairs Committee for the Aurora Board of Realtors. LeGare was involved in real estate in Aurora at the time while Coffman was an associate member of the Aurora Board of Realtors, having just started his property management firm. “What impresses me the most about Mike is his background of leadership in the military, as an Aurora- based small business owner, and in leading two departments of state government as their executive director. Aurora is now the 3rd largest city in Colorado and the 54th largest city in the United States and Mike’s proven leadership will be needed to help shape Aurora’s future,” said LeGare. Coffman, 64, grew up in Aurora and attended Aurora Public Schools. He dropped out of high school at the end of his junior year to enlist in the U.S. Army, where he earned a high school diploma through an Army program and later graduated from the University of Colorado. Coffman is a combat veteran with a combined 21 years of military service between the U.S. Army, the Army Reserve, the U.S. Marine Corps and the Marine Corps Reserve. Coffman has been a longtime member of the Aurora Chamber of Commerce and was a partner in an Aurora-based property management firm for 17 years. Coffman has held the elected offices of State Representative, State Senator, State Treasurer, Colorado Secretary of State, and U.S. Representative. - 30 - Paid for by Mike for Mayor | www.MikeforAuroraMayor.com .

Governor Polis Announces Statewide Mask Order
For Immediate Release Thursday, July 16, 2020 Shelby Wieman | [email protected] | 303-957-6011 Governor Polis Announces Statewide Mask Order DENVER - Governor Jared Polis today announced a Statewide mask order, directing Coloradans to wear a face covering while indoors. This Executive Order goes into effect at midnight tonight. The Governor also provided an update on the State’s response to COVID-19. “Wearing a mask is an easy and highly effective way to significantly reduce the spread of COVID-19. The more we wear masks, the safer we will be and the stronger our economy will grow,” said Governor Jared Polis. “Unfortunately, this pandemic is far from over, cases are up, and we have to find a way to live sustainably while protecting ourselves and those around us. Masks are the ticket to the Colorado we love and a critical part of supporting Colorado’s economy and prosperity. The best way to support Colorado workers and businesses right now is to wear a mask. I’ve said this from the beginning, and it’s still true today: together, we will get through this.” The Governor was joined by Denver Mayor Michael Hancock, Aurora Mayor Mike Coffman, and State Epidemiologist Dr. Rachel Herlihy at the announcement. Coloradans older than 10 years old must wear a face covering over their nose and mouth when entering or moving within any public indoor space. A public indoor space is defined as any enclosed indoor area that is publicly or privately owned, managed or operated to which individuals have access by right or by invitation, expressed or implied, and that is accessible to the public, serves as a place of employment, or is an entity providing services.

D.C. 20463 SENSITIVE BEFORE THE FEDERAL ELECTION COMMISSION In the Matter of ) ) Protect Colorado Jobs, Inc. ) MUR6056 John Berry ) Curt Cerveny ) Armstrong for Congress and Brian Watson, ) in his official capacity as treasurer. ) STATEMENT OF REASONS COMMISSIONER CYNTHIA L. BAUERLY COMMISSIONER ELLEN L. WEINTRAUB This matter concerns a mailer about a candidate that was prepared with corporate funds and possibly coordinated with one of the candidate's opponents. The complaint alleged that Protect Colorado Jobs, Inc. ("PCJ") used corporate funds to pay for a mailer attacking Mike Coffman, a candidate in the Republican primary for the 6th Congressional District in Colorado (the complainant), and included as respondents John Berry as PCJ's secretary and present treasurer, as well as Curt Cerveny, PCJ's former treasurer and the alleged signatory of the check used to pay for the mailer. Consistent with its standard practice, the Office of General Counsel ("OGC") reviewed the complaint, the response, and publicly available information in the course of preparing its recommendations for the Commission. Based upon publicly available information suggesting that PCJ may have coordinated the mailer with the campaign of Wil Armstrong, a primary election opponent of Coffman, OGC notified Armstrong for Congress ("AFC") and its treasurer Brian Watson and provided them with an opportunity to respond. OGC subsequently recommended that the Commission find reason to believe that the mailer was coordinated between PCJ and AFC.1 The complaint is brief, but to the point. It states, in pertinent part: During the last week of July, 2008, approximately three weeks before the Republican primary for the 6th Congressional District, PCJ used corporate funds to pay for an attack mailing against Coffman.

State Election Results, 1992
To: Citizens of Colorado From: Natalie Meyer, Secretary of State Subject: 1992 Abstract of Votes I am pleased to publish the 1992 Abstract of Votes Cast which provides as complete a picture of Colorado voting behavior as our data will provide. Compiled from material filed at our office, this publication profiles the voting patterns of Colorado voters in the presidential primary, primary and the general election. Some 1,597,186 electors exercised their voice at the polls in November 1992. This abstract is dedicated to those who realize that every ·voice is critical and counted in determining the direction of local and national governmental affairs. Our system of government would cease to exist without a concerned constituency who participates at every level of the electoral process. 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS PAGE Glossary of Abstract Terms 1 Directory of Elected and Appointed Officials 2 Presidential Primary Election 42 Primary Election Abstract U.S. Senate 48 U.S. Congress 51 State Board of Education 55 Regents of the University of Colorado 56 State Senate 59 State Representative 63 District Attorneys 80 General Election Abstract Presidential Electors 86 U.S. Senate 88 U.S. Congress 90 State Board of Education 91 Regents of the University of Colorado 93 State Senate 94 State Representative 96 District Attorneys 106 RTD District Directors 110 Moffat Tunnel Commissioners 112 Judicial 113 Ballot Issues 126 Registered Voters{furnout 142 ii iii GLOSSARY OF ABSTRACT TERMS Assembly Meeting of delegates of a political party held to designate candidates for nomination at a primary election.

Colorado 2018 Primary Election Results and Analysis
June 27, 2018 Colorado 2018 Primary Election Results and Analysis Colorado held its primary election last night, setting the stage for the November general election where Walker Stapleton (R) and Jared Polis (D) will compete to replace term-limited Gov. John Hickenlooper (D). In all the statewide races, substantially more votes were cast in Democratic primary contests than in Republican races. Figures from the secretary of state’s office indicate that, as of midnight, 1,158,700 voters had returned their mail-in ballots, a number that represents more than 30 percent of the state’s total registered voters. Ballots are still being processed, with July 5 being the last day for military and overseas ballots to arrive and the last day for a voter to cure a missing signature or signature discrepancy. Even without the final numbers, it is clear that voter turnout was up significantly from the 2016 primary election when only 21 percent of the electorate participated—an all-time low. This year’s high primary turnout was due in part to Colorado’s new law allowing unaffiliated voters to participate for the first time. Of the 1,158,700 ballots tallied thus far, 280,958 were cast by unaffiliated voters, 412,411 by Republicans and 465,331 by Democrats. Ballots cast in the Democratic primary for governor exceeded those cast in the Republican primary by more than 100,000. This difference was consistent in congressional and state legislative races as well. In a state with voter registration roughly even among Republican, Democrat and unaffiliated voters, this trend is notable and may reflect intensity.
