Hillary by over 50% to beating Kamala by only 16%, when our Dem candidate madevan impressive run against lamborn's replacement, when some 3,000 people (as reported even by the local fishwrap) showed up at the first protest this year. .things look slightly more hopeful. Dems are working hard here, against very difficult odds.

I do live in the slightly bluer, less fundie, part of town, which is helpful. I don't have to encounter quite so many assholes.
