Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : In the general election, Lisa Calderón, a professor and criminal justice reform advocate who was endorsed by the Denver chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America, had just 14.4% of the vote when first results were announced, but her share grew to 18.2%, within 3,200 votes and 2 percentage points of second-place Brough, as the counting continued.
39% : That work, particularly a 2010 bill he sponsored that tied teacher evaluations to student academic growth, has also brought plenty of criticism from people who view him as an adversary to public education.
