One blue state becomes purple

Back in the 90s, number seven was the lucky number here in Colorado, as John Elway led the Denver Broncos to four Super Bowl trips.

Now, under the leadership of Peyton Manning, our lucky number is 18. Guess what? The GOP now has a 18-17 majority in the Colorado Senate! So, even though the House of Representatives and Governor's office are still in the hands of the left, our blue state is looking more purple every day.
