Ludwig on 17 county assemblies
County assemblies can be exhausting. So I have much respect for Democratic statewide candidates like Ken Gordon, Bill Ritter and Fern O'Brien, who had to race from county to county, talking to voters.
Steve Ludwig, at-large candidate for Colorado University regent, attended 17 county assemblies, concluding with Pitkin County last night. So I asked him for reflections on the experience. He said water rights, the sale of public land, and disaffection with the White House are on people's mind all over Colorado. As for the regent's race:
In my race, people respond to the fact that a Democrat hasn't been elected statewide to the Board of Regents since 1976; how Colorado needs great higher ed to remain competitive globally; and that football isn't first - students, professors and academics are.
