Gilpin County Democrats held their assembly yesterday, April 8th. In addition to our delegates and alternates, we were happy to have our State Senator, Senate President Joan Fitz-Gerald in attendance, as well as Secretary of State candidate and State Senate Majority Leader Ken Gordon and Colorado Democratic Party 1st Vice-Chair Dan Slater.

HD-13 candidates Claire Levy and Jim Rettew and local candidates County Commissioner 2nd District Jeanne Nicholson, County Assessor Anne Schafer, and County Coroner Zane Laubhan were all there; Clear Creek Democratic Party co-Chair Tim Mauk attended for Rep. Mark Udall (Tim also serves as Rep. Udall's Compliance Directory). Gilpin BOE member Scott Groginsky spoke for State BOE 2nd District member Evie Hudak.

Thanks to all who attended! Results and details "below the fold" - keep reading...
