We've received a few e-mails this week about different political events taking place soon, and we thought it would be a good idea to start what we'll call a Political Community Roundup.
If you've got events, protests, or other gatherings that you'd like to publicize, drop us an e-mail. Once we get a couple of announcements in a row, we'll post them under this title. Click below for the first batch of events.
*Please note: Colorado Pols neither promotes, approves, or disapproves of any of the following event listings. They are posted here as a source of general information for all you political junkies out there.

Agreed. We already posted the information from the e-mail. This isn't a bulletin board. We've removed the comment.
