Colorado deserves an Attorney General who’s ready on Day One to protect what matters most: our safety, our constitutional rights, our water and environment, and our way of life.

For Michael Dougherty, this isn’t a talking point – it’s the culmination of nearly 30 years as a career prosecutor. He’s led in the courtroom, in times of tragedy and crisis, and across Colorado’s communities, taking on tough cases and standing up for victims, workers, and families. These issues demand authentic leadership, not rhetoric. Michael brings the experience, expertise, and working relations throughout Colorado’s justice system. It’s time for steady hands, proven judgment, and real courage.

Let’s achieve big things for Colorado, backed by the experience to win in court.
