    For our final event of the morning, Jared made an appearance and spoke with members at two assisted living care centers. I wasn’t allowed to photograph at the first one, but I had ample opportunities to do so at the Northglenn Heights Assisted Living and Memory Care Center in Northglenn,…

    Following the Thornton Park-N-Ride event, we stopped by the local Starbucks to refuel and check email before the next event at two assisted living care centers. As we were leaving, we noticed a yellow school bus passing by. Jared waved to the bus, not realizing initially that it was actually…

    Saturday afternoon was spent visiting various canvassing centers around Boulder and Louisville. All across Colorado (and the country), there are these canvass centers where people come to work the phone bank and organize walks through neighborhoods to talk to voters.

    On Saturday morning, Jared greeted shoppers at the final Boulder County Farmer’s Market of the year.

    Here are photos from Jared’s visits to his campaign headquarters and the joint Obama/Udall/Polis campaign office.
