History of The Green Party of Colorado

The Green Party of Colorado was formed in 1992. As Greens grew and evolved to include electoral politics in our repertoire of activism, the need for a state party became apparent. With our ballot status in 1998, our growth has taken off as progressives in Colorado see the Green Party as a practical avenue for their political activism.

2002

We won a significant number of local offices in 2002 including seats in Carbondale, Basalt, Ward, Dolores, Telluride and Park County. None of our candidates won in the 2002 General Election in Colorado; however they all ran great campaigns and significantly raised awareness of the Green Party and the issues.
Nationally the Green Party had its best year ever winning 66 offices in 2002. The most prominent victory included John Eder’s victory for state house in Portland, Maine. Eder defeated his Democratic opponent by a two-to-one margin. Victories ranged from Hawaii to Maine and Texas to Minnesota, with North Carolina and Texas both electing their first Green to local office. Growth over the past two years nationally has been over 27%, according to Ballot Access News.
