Former Colorado governor could announce candidacy for president
Former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper appeared alongside California Sen. Kamala Harris at the Story County Democrats Annual Soup Dinner Saturday in Ames, Iowa. Harris announced her candidacy for president in late January; Hickenlooper has applied to rent out Civic Center Park in Denver next week for a “celebration.”
John Hickenlooper is throwing a party, and you’re invited. An organization affiliated with the former Colorado governor has applied to rent out Civic Center Park March 7.
What for? The only reason listed is “celebration.” Look over the application here. An entity under the name “JHFP Inc.” filed the request for the downtown park, which sits in between two of Hickenlooper’s former offices: the Denver City and County Building and the state Capitol.
The “community gathering” is free and open to the public. While food will be available for sale, the brewery owner-turned-politico will not be offering booze.
