The Plan

Currently in the Colorado State House there are

41 Democrats and 24 Republicans

Capturing 9 house seats from the Democrats would deprive them of a majority.

Currently in the State Senate there are:

20 Democrats and 15 Republicans

Capturing 3 State Senate seats from the Democrats would deprive them of a  majority.

That’s not to say we would only run candidates against Democrat seats. We will run candidates wherever we can recruit a good candidate.

 

Here is what we have to do to launch the Center Party:

  1. Create the web site – done , and always adding more content
