National focus on DPS race
A national media blitz by Denver school board candidate Emily Sirota is shaking up the race in southeast Denver but it’s unclear whether it will help her win.
Denver school board candidate Emily Sirota on MSNBC on Monday.
“While it might have some effect, I don’t know if it’s going to touch enough people in southeast Denver,” said Denver pollster and political analyst Floyd Ciruli. “It lacks a certain kind of believability.”
Sirota, who has appeared on national television and radio shows in the past week, is running against Anne Rowe for the seat being vacated by Bruce Hoyt, who is term-limited.
Their race had garnered little media attention – locally or nationally – before Sirota’s former boss, Montana Gov.
