Description | The environment is a major issue as Democratic challenger Tom Strickland and Republican Sen. Wayne Allard snipe at each other in a rematch of their 1996 contest that Allard won by 5 percentage points.
Polls have indicated a close race this year, too, with Allard holding an edge so far.
Strickland has the support of the Sierra Club and the League of Conservation Voters. The latter has tagged Allard one of a "dirty dozen" lawmakers who have not voted with the league's interests on selected issues.
Allard's side says that's all about environmental politics, not the actual environment. Everyone involved agrees the environment is an important issue in Colorado. |
