@DNVR_Nuggets No podcast yesterday?

[Taylor West @Taylor_West]

@DenverPolice What’s happening at 28th and Forest? Our neighbors got a “shelter in place” notice but no additional information.

@TheOrvedahl Not exactly a deep cut as a song, but if you've never seen the ORIGINAL lyrics to "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas," before it got prettied up, I think they count for this list. Especially when you consider they were written in the midst of WWII.

Also, among our group of friends, we once debated in what order we'd sacrifice each other in a zombie apocalypse. The one thing we all agreed on - @lanon_baccam would be the last one standing, because he's just that damn valuable. (I got tossed early by basically everyone.) #IA03

[Taylor West @Taylor_West]

I don't really tweet anymore, but I'll make an exception for @lanon_baccam. There's a reason he can drop this remarkable list of endorsers one day after declaring - he's truly the real deal. Kind, smart, resourceful, dedicated. Everything you wish for in a public servant. #IA03

[Bleeding Heartland @LauraRBelin]

First Democrat to declare in #IA03 released a LONG list of endorsers today. I know others have thought about this primary but not sure whether they will move forward.

@DenverPolice @citybiiird It was last night (Wednesday) in the 9pm hour. A helicopter was circling over N. Park Hill (in our case the 2500 block of Fairfax St.) repeatedly.

@IanKarmel @SeanSJordan Feeling was mutual! I started listening to AFE last year when things were most stressful during the campaign, and y’all’s whole delightful deal was part of keeping me sane. So thanks right back at you both.

[Taylor West @Taylor_West]

@IanKarmel 👋 Sorry I couldn’t hang for the meet and greet (babysitter, etc.), but that was me in the audience tonight - the psychedelics campaigner. Both you and @SeanSJordan were fantastic. Good vibes all around.

[Taylor West @Taylor_West]

Our first-ever Berkeley Psychedelics Survey shows *61%* of U.S. registered voters support legalizing psychedelic therapy. Kind of blew my mind, and I’m really glad we’ve been able to launch this opinion research project.

[UC Berkeley Center for the Science of Psychedelics @SciPsychedelics]

“The level of national support for psychedelics policy reform far exceeded my expectations. Clearly much of the news around promising research and mental health results has begun breaking through to the general public," says @Taylor_West - at the preview of our inaugural Berkeley Psychedelics Survey, launched at #PS2023

Excited to share our first-ever psychedelic benchmark poll data tomorrow.

@JohnGHendy @JenSeniorNY @mcnallyjackson @AAKnopf @penguinrandom 👀 Don’t forget us little people before you get to Denver.

Just realized we *already* have a 100K+ vote margin (🎉), and it's only going to grow from here. Ran the math on our model again, and the final vote margin will likely be around 150,000. #Prop122

[Taylor West @Taylor_West]

It's officially official! The Natural Medicine Health Act passes in Colorado, creating a therapeutic access program for psychedelic-assisted therapy. When all the votes are counted, we expect we'll end up at 53% and a 100K+ vote margin.

NEW: Colorado is poised to become the second U.S. state to legalize medicinal psychedelics after Natural Medicine Colorado, the campaign behind the measure, declared victory at 5:20 p.m. The Associated Press has not yet called the race. https://t.co/97Tff0gFjU
