Ferrandino says HD-40 will turn red; HD-17 may go blue

By Jeremy Pelzer, PolitickerCO.com Reporter

Colorado House District 40 will turn Republican this year, predicted state Rep. Mark Ferrandino (D-Denver), but he said Democrats should do well in other state legislative races.

"We have a lot of seats we need to protect," Ferrandino told PolitickerCO.com. "And when you get in the majority and you have this much of a margin of 40 to 25 -- and actually, really, 39 to 26 because the Debbie Stafford seat (in House District 40) is, you know, a pretty safe Republican seat -- we're spending a lot of time making sure our incumbents win."

Top 10 Democratic mediocrities in the Colorado legislature

By Wally Edge

1) Nancy Todd- HD-41

Nancy sure loves sponsoring resolutions. And she jumped on the Clinton bandwagon just as it was stumbling.

2) Suzanne Williams-SD-28

With 12 years in public office she has a mighty slim record of accomplishment.

3) Debbie Stafford- HD-40
