Dark Money Shapes Colorado Primaries

Colorado’s Democratic primaries are turning into a high-stakes money game, with over $2 million secretly funneled through three shadowy nonprofits into eight state super PACs—some with misleading names—to sway key races. The cash, flowing into ads and mailers across Denver and beyond, is backing moderate candidates over progressives, reshaping the state legislature’s future. Former Senate President Steve Fenberg warns this isn’t just about policy anymore—it’s about cultural divides. Behind the scenes, One Main Street Colorado and two allies are orchestrating this stealthy spending, while unions like AFL-CIO and Colorado Education Association push back with their own PAC, Colorado Labor Action, turning the race into a complex financial battle for control of the Capitol.
