Progressives are branding Republican gubernatorial candidate Heidi Ganahl as a racist for choosing Danny Moore to be her running mate.

Spoiler alert: This is Danny Moore.

The press release from Progress Now Colorado claims that progressives condemn Ganahl’s lieutenant governor pick as racist and senseless, without any explanation as to how on God’s green Earth choosing people of color is now considered racist.

What is senseless is all the hysteria on the left being encouraged by the media to paint Moore as some sort of wild-eyed radical because he had the foresight to speculate that “by all account, the election of 2020 will go down as the most questioned election in our country’s history.”

PeakNation™ will recall it was one of Kyle Clark’s trademark hissy fits that elevated Moore’s social media post into a grand election-rigging conspiracy theory, which was intended to tarnish Moore’s character and get him booted as the chairman of the state’s Independent Congressional Redistricting Commission.

There is nothing the left and media hate more than a person of color with conservative values who dares identify as Republican.

Moore said at the time his comments were meant to spark a conversation, noting his 13th First Amendment rights, but the media attention was too much for the commission that did not want to be viewed as partisan.

They unelected Moore as chair, but he continued to serve on the commission.

We’re ignoring all the negative media coverage and look forward to learning more about Moore, who served our country for 24 years in the Navy and retired as a master chief, and owns a small business providing scientific, engineering, technical, and operational support services to the Defense Department.

We encourage voters to judge for themselves and ignore all the haters on the left.
