You know Colorado voted for Joe Biden, and chose John Hickenlooper over Cory Gardner. But what about all those ballot measures voters said yes to -- what will that mean for your life here? And hey, spare a thought for your state legislature; the balance of power came out basically static, and that's actually rather interesting. Intrigued? Good.

Nearly 2.7 million ballots had been counted, representing 70 percent of active voters.

The measure had the support of 57 percent of voters as of 9:30 p.m., with a sizable lead of nearly 400,000 votes.

For local officials, especially in rural areas, repealing the Gallagher Amendment is their best chance to stave off difficult budget cuts. But for voters struggling with housing costs, the trade-offs aren't simple.

Obviously the big headlines on election night will be who wins and who loses, which ballot measures pass and which fail. But elections also tell a story -- about where the state is now, and where it might be headed. And that's what our Purplish team looks ahead to in this, our last episode before the election!

The governor said the payments are necessary after it was clear Congress was unlikely to pass another COVID-19 relief package before the election.

“I haven’t even decided how I’m voting on this yet — which is the only reason why I haven’t turned my ballot in, to be honest."

Voters should drop their ballots at drop boxes or voting centers in the final week of election to ensure they’re counted.

More than a million people have already cast ballots in Colorado. The Purplish team digs into who they are and what's motivating them to get it done so early. At the same time that lots of people are voting, there are also a lot of rumors flying about alleged attempts to prevent that from happening. A special guest joins to help separate fact from fiction.

On Saturday, Oct. 10, a shouting match near the Denver Central Library ended with a burst of pepper spray and a fatal gunshot in broad daylight. The victim: Lee Keltner. The shooter: Matthew Dolloff. Keltner and Dolloff would likely be unknown to one another — and the rest of the country — had it not been for the collision of political forces in downtown Denver that day. But now they are at the heart of a conflict among groups whose names differ depending on whom you ask: patriots and communists, fascists and Antifa, left and right.

A bipartisan team retrieved ballots from Grand Lake, but now an elections center is under a pre-evacuation notice.

The new order adds protections for renters, including those whose leases have expired.

The order supplements the CDC moratorium on evictions, which says that landlords can’t carry out evictions for non-payment through Dec. 31.

Hickenlooper has said his goal is to achieve universal health care coverage, which he claims is possible through a “national public opinion.”

The ethics complaints against Hickenlooper started during his final year in office as governor when a Republican-backed group obtained details through public records requests about numerous trips he took.

Gardner supported all three of the Republicans’ major attempts to demolish the Affordable Care Act in 2017, including efforts to repeal it and to replace it.
