more reliable. Let me get to some text on this, because when we get to these top lines, you'll see that big leads for 134, no boys in girls sports, big lead for 134, 55, 34, big lead 84-135 prohibits these disfiguring surgeries on minors. That lead 63-29 under one version of the question, 54-32 under another. Don't ask me why they have two versions, but big leads there as well. 87 is not polled in this, so I don't have anything for you on 87, but NN, which would essentially do away with Tabor to a large extent, that is leading 46-43. all of the statewide races are big dem leads, you know, somewhere in the 15 to 20 point range, all of the statewide races at this point. I'm not saying that that's where it's going to end up, but that's where they have them polled at this point. Amendment 81, which would require law enforcement to notify federal immigration authorities if somebody here illegally is being prosecuted for serious crimes, that is leading 49-39 with 12% Undecided, Amendment 83, right to hunt and fish, leading 48-33 with 19% undecided. Amendment 84, you have to provide personal identifying information with your mail-in ballot, leading 48-42 with 10% undecided. Amendment 85, hey, you got to write these ballot measures in plain English, leading 67-19. And then, of course, the critical 134-135 I just gave you. And this jumps off the page at me, and I'd love your thoughts on why this is so. My own theory is it's Jenna Griswold undermining confidence. Only 60% of independents in Colorado say our elections are fair and accurate. People are texting DAN57739 as they should. Dan says they text her 134, 135 are statutory elections. So can't the legislature change them if they want? Yes, of course they can. But in my mind, that doesn't dilute the importance of victory if that's what is achieved tomorrow. Because first of all, you have the voters, the actual voters in a blue state, hopefully sending this message across party lines, sending this message, no, no boys and girls sports, no boys and girls bathrooms and showers. The value of that in terms of helping to protect kids here and nationwide, is tremendous. And then, you're right, Texter, Democrats could, as they've done sometimes before, just go in and give the double middle finger to the voters and go ahead and pass some contrary legislation. I think they would do so at great cost to the Democratic Party, which, again, would be progress for this state. I think you would then start to see Democrats losing, you know, House, State House and State Senate races in places like, They have in the past and in places they normally don't. I think this issue, if tomorrow night, if the final returns match up at all with these poll results, this issue clearly is different for the people of Colorado. Dan, when did El-Sayed say he wanted naked men in children's showers? Are you quoting or imagining? No, Texter, I'm thinking. I'm using my brain. I'm actually inferring, I'm drawing reasonable conclusions from what he says. And I understand why the texter would be desperate to deny what Al-Sayed actually said. And here it is, and it's last night on 60 Minutes, where Al-Sayed, when asked very thoughtfully by the 60 Minutes correspondent about, hey, this clash of rights, when you talk about allowing these boys into, you know, girls' sports and locker rooms, and Al-Sayed said, Said, no, no, it's... Hey, these girls, they can see naked men on the internet anyway. So what difference does it make? Let me reset that so we get it from the beginning. 00:07:38 Speaker 3: Because, of course, you have all the information. 00:07:41 Speaker 1: I mean, it really... The arrogance of it. You'll hear him disparage the parents who are concerned about this. What happens with transgender kids on sports teams and so on, right? Like, these are places where... Rights are in conflict, right? 00:07:57 Speaker 2: What do you think happens there? 00:07:58 Speaker 3: I don't know that that's actually true. I think we manufacture these social issues because here's the thing about it. Ross, you have an iPhone in your pocket probably, or is it an iPhone or a Samsung? You have a phone in your pocket, right? You can get access to everything and anything in the whole world, all the world's information in your pocket. The notion somehow that you are going to prevent your child from being exposed to something that you may find disagreeable, And that that is going to be because of school is so profoundly outdated. 00:08:25 Speaker 1: Wow. No doubt about what he's saying. And he hasn't tried to claim he's saying something else there. Yeah, he's saying that there's no problem with allowing these boys and men in girls and women's showers because they can just see naked men on the Internet anyway. And how stupid and foolish and outdated of you, your parents, to complain about this. because they can just see naked men on the internet anyway. I mean, think about how arrogant that is, how hateful that is, how hateful of the children, how hateful of the parents. And why? You've got to ask yourself why, because it's not just about him. He is a clear view. He is a clear view into the heart and soul of the left in Colorado and elsewhere. And ask yourself again, why are they so determined to force this on children? Why are they so determined to force on girls and women, naked men in their showers and in their bathrooms and men in their sports? Why are they so determined to force that on them? Think about that. But he does a great service to everybody by just being so open about it. 303-713-8255, the number D-A-N-5-7-7-3-9. Dan, Army vet Jason Crow endorses the anti-Semitic supporter of the Boulder Firebomber. I wouldn't put this on the whole military. Listen, Chase, Crow has made it clear for a long time who he is, right? And we have some people, Democrat and Republican, they come out of the military and they have served very courageously and admirably. And then they go on to serve courageously and

admirably in office. And we've had examples in both parties. And then you have the Croatolas. You have that group who served in such a courageous and admirable way as he did in his military service. And then they come out and then they become the opposite in their political life. They become anti-military. They undermine the military. They trade on their very hard-earned, admirable, tremendous military service to then come in and parlay that into politics. attacking, attacking and undermining those same institutions. And that's what the Croatola has become. And that's, I mean, it's really sad. But you also have to feel a little sad for the Croatola because he has nowhere to go politically. He has nowhere to go politically in Colorado. You think in Colorado, the way it's set up right now, that he's going to be their U.S. Senate nominee or their nominee for governor? Ain't going to happen. Ain't going to happen. So Now he's trying to go from what he was, which is truly heroic military service. Now he's trying to make that transition into socialist. And it's going to be fun to watch, but it ain't going to work for him. He has nowhere to go in this Democratic Party. 303-713-8255, DAN-57739. You're on the Dan Kaplan Show. He works every single day to keep you and your families and our country safe. And because he's our president, America is stronger, you're safer, and our enemies are weaker all around the world. Thank you, Mr. 00:11:51 Speaker 3: President. 00:11:55 Speaker 1: He's doing a great job. He's doing a great job. Thank you, Marco. 00:12:01 Speaker 2: But he is getting too popular, a little bit more popular. 00:12:04 Speaker 1: I'm going to say, Marco, I'm sorry, you're fired. You know, the reason I played that is what we've been talking about for quite a while now, which is, listen, if you're in President Trump's shoes, you are very, very focused right now on one thing when it comes to the GOP nominee for 28. And that is who has the best chance to win. Because if you're Trump and you have been subject to the coup attempt while in office and all of these bogus charges through the lawfare, the left wage to try to cause you to die in jail because he couldn't beat you at the polls, you know. that if a Democrat follows you into the presidency, there is a real good chance you're going to be looking at more trumped-up, bogus criminal charges. So I think the president, I think he's going to make it clear who he wants as a nominee, and it's going to be whoever he thinks has the best chance to win. And right now, and it's no knock on J.D. Vance, right now I would think that it would be Marco Rubio, but we'll be talking about that a lot more When the presidential starts in full on Wednesday morning, as Dick Wadham said, he was on with us earlier on a great PCS Today in the Gazette about how phony a lot of these Democrat candidates for Congress are in Colorado. You know, Dick was making the good point that, hey, you know, the 2028 Senate race, U.S. Senate race in Colorado starts Wednesday morning. And we were talking about that in the context of obviously the socialists have taken over the Colorado Democratic Party. It's been very socialist in policy for a while, but now it's just full-throated out in the open when you've got this revolutionary, horrible anti-Semite, in my opinion, Malat Kiros, as the leader of the Colorado Democratic Party. Yeah, it's all out in the open now. And so it's going to make it very, very interesting starting Wednesday morning as we head toward, okay, who's their Senate nominee going to be in 28? And a very, very good chance it's going to be an open socialist, whether that's Malak Kiros, whether she bails from her first term in that first congressional district, or whether it's some other socialist. That's what the Colorado Democratic Party is now. All right, going to mix in some text and calls, and I'll continue to get you results from this very important CU poll, which has some really encouraging news on a lot of the big ballot measures, and it's a poll that's been accurate recently. in the past on a lot of different things. Hey, Dave, you're on the Dan Kaplan Show. Welcome. 00:14:37 Speaker 2: How you doing, Dan? 00:14:38 Speaker 1: I'm living the dream, my friend. How about you? 00:14:39 Speaker 2: Hey, good. So I was just listening to you talking about, you know, the different social issues and your view on them, you know, from a Christian standpoint. And I was just curious as to why you wouldn't endorse a man such as Victor Marks, who worked for Focus on the Family for years and was involved in, you know, missions to help women over in Iraq and stuff, the man seems like his credibility is pretty high. 00:15:21 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll tell you, Dave, if at this point I was fully satisfied that Victor's backstory is true. I would be his leading donor. If I had to sell the house, I'd be his leading donor. That's a little bit of an exaggeration. I would be his biggest fan. I'd be doing everything humanly possible to get him elected on one condition, and that is that he would come on this radio show and answer the good, tough questions my listeners had. Because two things for me, my friend. One is, as the host of a radio show, and I have been for 30 years, every Republican candidate for governor and Senate in the past 30 years has come on the show whenever we've asked to answer the tough questions from listeners. Victor Marks has been on the show twice, but kind of, you know, fluff appearances, a bio appearance in the beginning, and then to talk about his great fundraising numbers. And I invited him back to talk about the tough questions that have really caused a lot of problems for his candidacy, and he was unwilling to do that. And so as a talk show host, I could never ever endorse somebody who was unwilling to come on the show and answer those questions from my listeners. It'd be an insult to my listeners. It'd be an insult to myself. It'd be the weakest thing

I could ever do in this job as a talk show host. But second, I've been very open about it, Dave. If his story is true, and what he was telling all these Christians to raise all that money was true, I would be his biggest backer if I was convinced that was all true. To me, there are still so many big unanswered questions. I can't in good conscience get there right now. I haven't drawn any firm conclusions one way or the other because there are these good questions that need to be answered in my mind, and they haven't been. 00:17:17 Speaker 2: I get that. I would say that Victor, you know, I can't answer for him why he wouldn't come on your show, but I know that he has gone direct to your listeners all over the state. 00:17:33 Speaker 1: Can you hold on, Dave? Because you're great, and I don't want to cut you off. But the other thing I want to say is, listen, one of the things that really concerns me as I try to figure out for myself, is Victor's story true, in which case he's incredibly deserving and admirable, or is it not, in which case It's the worst of the worst. The man's been unwilling to stand up to these Democrat opponents. They stand for evil. He should be on the stage with them, calling them out on that. And he won't do that. Five thirty five here on the Dan Kaplan show. So glad you're here. Lots of text. Get back to our phone lines talking about poll results out of CU, a poll they do once every election cycle that has had a lot of accurate results in the past and a lot of good news in these results. on key ballot measures, including 134 and 135. We've been breaking that down in detail. We will continue to. I want to get back to the phone lines, talk to Dave, who was kind enough to stay through the break. I wanted to make sure he did. Very thoughtful caller who was saying, and correct me, Dave, if I'm wrong, but his central premise in starting the call was, hey, Dan, you talk about how important it is for us to vote our faith and for us to support these different ballot measures and not let you know, the other side impose things on us that strip us of religious liberty, inconsistent with our faith, et cetera. So why aren't you supporting Victor Marx, who makes faith a central part of his campaign? Does that sum it up, Dave? 00:19:00 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's pretty much it. 00:19:03 Speaker 1: Okay, and thanks for staying. And I won't repeat everything I said before the break. People who listen all the time know that what it boils down to for me, the reason I haven't been able to reach the point where I can look you in the eye and say you should vote for Victor Marx is, twofold in 10 seconds or less. One, he's been unwilling to come on the show and answer the tough questions that our listeners have. At that point, I'd be an idiot. I'd be a fool. I'd be pathetically weak to tell my listeners, hey, vote for this guy who won't come on the show and answer your questions. I've been on air 30 years. Every Republican candidate for Senate and governor has come on the show whenever we've asked to answer the tough questions. Has nothing to do with ego, It just has to do with respect for my listeners. The second reason is Victor Marx, as I've said from the beginning, and I think I've said to him, Victor Marx is either one of the most admirable, deserving candidates we've ever had, or he's a fraud. And I don't, my constitutionally protected opinion, I don't think there's a lot of room in between because he's either done these things he claimed to have done, which would make him one of the most admirable people to ever run for office, or he's claimed to have done a lot of things he didn't do and raised a lot of money that way, in which case it would be at the other end of the spectrum. So, Dave, that's where I'm at. I wish I could endorse him. I want to endorse him. I have a number of friends who are supporting him who I respect. But right now I just couldn't look you in the eye and say, hey, you should go out and vote for this guy. 00:20:41 Speaker 2: I did read his book, A Dangerous Gentleman. He came to my church and talked personally to us, and I was quite impressed with him. The story in his book seemed very credible. I'm of the opinion you had before, if all that stuff is true. 00:21:07 Speaker 1: Yeah. 00:21:08 Speaker 2: He's like one of the best candidates ever. And I mean, when it comes to a choice between him or Phil Weiser, it's a clear choice. It would be better for the state of Colorado. 00:21:18 Speaker 1: Yeah, Dave. And thank you for saying that. On your first point, I can tell you, I know some people who are really, really smart, really, really successful. They've been around Victor a lot. They believe his story and they are supporting him big time. And these are people I respect the heck out of. Now, In terms of the other point that, hey, Victor is better than Weiser, yeah, anybody, anybody who's truly pro-life would be better than Phil Weiser. You know, Phil Weiser is a wolf in sheep's clothing. He stands for some things that are just flat-out evil. He's not an evil person. I enjoy being around him, but he stands for some things that are flat-out evil. And so, yeah, hey, if Victor Marx was to win this election, I'd be very happy that Phil Weiser is not our governor. But when, I'm sure it's the same for you, Dave, it comes back to what Archbishop Chaput, I happen to be Catholic, said once, which is God will judge us in part on how we vote. And for me personally, and I know what I say doesn't matter to anybody out there in terms of how they cast their own ballot, I understand that. But for me personally, I just can't look somebody in the eye and tell them to vote for somebody if I don't 100% believe it. And I still have these very serious doubts about Victor that I was hoping he could address by taking these questions head on, and he's chosen not to. The other thing, Dave, that bugs me, and I'd love your take on this, my friend, is you talk about the title of his book, A

Dangerous Gentleman, and You know and I know and we all know a lot of people who are tremendously courageous. And I know a lot of Republicans who are tremendously courageous. But that's been Victor's brand, right? His book, A Dangerous Gentleman, his brand is that he goes into war zones and risks his life to save these kids. Then why the hell won't he go on the stage and confront Phil Weiser? Weiser stands for a lot of evil things. How can I support a candidate who is unwilling to walk up on that stage, stand up to Phil Weiser, and call him out on the evil things he supports? What the hell is up with that? Don't you want a candidate? Don't you want a candidate who will step up onto that stage at every opportunity anybody will give him and confront the opponent? 00:23:52 Speaker 2: Again, I can't answer for Victor Weiser. chose not to come on your show but as far as the title a dangerous gentleman he's not so much talking of himself but he's calling on you and I to be dangerous gentlemen to stand in the gap and protect people that are weak and can't protect themselves and also to be an absolute gentleman most of the time but to be dangerous when required you know like say to you know you're intervening in a crime or something like that you know. 00:24:33 Speaker 1: Well dave and i really appreciate the way you present that and i can see that you you carry yourself that way and what i'll tell you is i have worked my tail off for 30 years to be that guy to do my part to come on the show and do the very best i can to stand up to the left and to not duck from anybody on the left, and to take on their best arguments, and to fight the good fight. And so I've walked the talk for 30 years now. I'm wondering where the hell's Victor? I mean, he has been. 00:25:06 Speaker 2: I understand that you walk that walk, and that's why it confuses me that the guy that I believe walks that walk, and I do as well, That's why it just confuses me that you're not more behind him. That's what it comes down to. 00:25:29 Speaker 1: And I can't tell you how much I appreciate this call and the way that you're presenting it because when I say I wish I could endorse him, I say that for two reasons. One is because of good people like you and the friends I have who are supporting him, who I have a lot of respect for. And it would make it, frankly, it would just make it easier on me and more comfortable for me to be able to endorse him. He's the GOP nominee. But when I'm sitting here with serious doubts as to whether his story is phony, I just can't in good conscience. And that's why, Dave, I make the point about him being unwilling to step onto the stage and take on Phil Weiser. If his whole premise is, hey, you've got to be willing to stand up and stand in the gap and and take on these bad things, why has he been unwilling to do that? Why has he been unwilling to stand on the stage, toe-to-toe with Weiser, every place that would allow him to, and to call him out? That's what we want from a leader. So that's one of those things, Dave, that makes me wonder whether his whole thing is phony. 00:26:41 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't have that answer, but I do believe that He's not a phony guy. I guess the only thing else I would have to say is that I would encourage you to investigate that book that he wrote. And like, if nothing else, it would maybe inspire you as the same way it did me to be a better person. Well, you know, do anything to change your your. opinion of Victor Barks. I mean, it's a good read for just people in general, I think, you know? 00:27:19 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I appreciate that, Dave, and I appreciate your commitment to him and the way you presented the case, and thank you for that. Thank you for the call, Dave. You know, I would have to believe that the vast majority of folks feel as I do, that if our nominee is unwilling to get on the stage... against the Democrat nominee for governor, get on the stage as often as he can, everywhere he can, and expose Phil Weiser, call him out for his position, some of which are just flat evil. At that point, how could anybody consider that person to be a leader? I mean, we've never seen anything like that in Colorado before. So it's just an another one of those facts that causes me to have serious doubts about Victor and whether the whole thing's phony. I mean, can somebody explain to me why, why he will not get on the stage with Phil Weiser in any kind of meaningful way? That just, it really concerns me on so many different levels. If somebody wants to be our leader, if somebody says, hey, I'm going to be your warrior. You've got to stand up and fight. You're on the Dan Kaplan Show. 552, hey, glad you're here. I want to get to these calls and texts before the end of the show. What we've talked about for the most part today is some really encouraging news in this poll out of CU Boulder, encouraging on the ballot issues. Unfortunately, it shows the statewide races to be all of them in Democrat hands. That doesn't mean they will be, and that doesn't mean we should concede anything. But the CU poll, which has been very accurate in certain ways in the past, has very good news for 134, no boys in girls' sports. That's leading 55-34. But we've got to run through the tape, get every vote cast. 135, none of these mutilating surgeries for kids who have gender confusion. That way ahead as well. Interesting finding in this poll, only 60%, 6-0%. of independent voters in Colorado say that Colorado elections are fair and accurate. And Amendment 81, which would require law enforcement to notify feds that way ahead at 49-39. But again, you got to run through the tape. And even though these numbers, assuming these numbers are reliable, they didn't, by the way, poll 87, you know, whether to dramatically increase taxes in Colorado. They didn't poll that. So we don't have that number, NN, which is a close kin and would throw out a lot of Tabor in effect. And N is very close at 4643 in favor.

But encouraging information in this poll when it comes to ballot measures. I want to get back to some text. Culler had just called, very, very thoughtful, impressive gentleman, had called to say he was supporting Victor Marx and, you know, just questioned as to why at this point I wasn't. So that's what triggered some of these texts that are coming in. Dan, thanks for underlining that your ego prevents you from endorsing the only option to defeat evil. You are sad and weak. First, as the texter knows, I made the point it's not ego. It's just a matter of respect. I host a talk radio show. We have a candidate for governor who's unwilling to come on and answer the tough, fair questions my listeners have. And it would be, seems to me, extremely disrespectful to my listeners and pathetically weak to then say, oh, yeah, go vote for this guy who won't come on and answer your questions. It'd be like, say you're on a football team and one of your teammates comes to you and they say they want to be captain of the team and say, great, hey, got a few questions. Some of the guys on O here. And he says, no, I'm not going to answer your questions. How could you elect that guy captain? But so anyway, and the sad and weak thing, listen, that Where's the weakness here? Where's the weakness here? In my view, Victor never really engaged in this campaign after winning the primary. The way I see it, he never really went out there and tried to win statewide. When someone's trying to win statewide, you know it. The day they win the primary, they're everywhere at once. Every media outlet that will take them, every debate the other side will sign up for, Every group in the state that will have them, including Democrat groups, they're everywhere but at once. Have you seen that? In this campaign, I have not seen that. I've seen the opposite. Unfortunately, for the first time, I've seen a GOP candidate who won't stand up to the Democrat, won't get on the stage with the Democrat and really debate him. That is extremely frustrating to me because the reality is that Phil Weiser, he's not an evil guy, but he stands for a lot of evil things. And and yet Victor was never willing to get on the stage and really take him on. So. So, yeah, if this texture wants to talk about weakness, this campaign did not have the strength that it needed. Dan Marks, Wolf and Sheep's Clothing, I voted for Greg Lopez and I like Greg. We had him in studio the other day. Greg has never had any chance whatsoever to win this race. The only effect Greg was going to have on this race was taking votes away from the Republican, which in the end isn't going to matter because the Republican decided not to engage statewide anyway, decided not to debate, etc., as I just mentioned. Dan, who is Crowetola? That is a listener's brilliant name for Jason Crow. After he came out, and he's tried in so many ways to undermine Trump in this effort to defeat the evil regime in Iran, actually came out and said, that he gave more credibility to what the Iranian regime said than to Trump. I'm paraphrasing, but fairly so. A listener labeled him croatola, which I think is absolutely brilliant. Dan, why do you think 131, 134, and 135 are losing? No, I think they're winning. I think they're winning. And this poll, 133, 134, 135, I believe are winning, and I think this poll bears that out. What else do we have here? Alexa says, Dan, Abdul Al-Sayed in Michigan thinks only a woman's husband can see her hair, but it's okay for girls to see a male's manhood in a locker room. How does that make any sense from Alexa? We talked about that a lot on the show today, too, that Abdul Al-Sayed, that Democrat candidate for Senate in Michigan, he just came right out and said it. That, hey, these girls, they can see male genitalia on the Internet, so... So, yeah, why shouldn't they see it in the locker room? I mean, I'm paraphrasing. You can listen to the sound. We played it 10 times, but that was his clear message. But it just shows the arrogance of the left and the hatefulness of parents, parental rights, even of these children. The left is so far gone. So thank you to Abdul for giving that glimpse inside the left. Thank you, Jesse Thomas. Really appreciate it. Catch us tomorrow on Election Day.
