Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Proud to earn the Sierra Club Colorado Chapter’s endorsement. I grew up in one of Colorado’s most polluted ZIP codes, so this is personal. Reliable transit cuts pollution, reduces traffic and gives families a real alternative to driving. Let’s build an RTD that delivers. 010
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 05/10/2026The Denver Post has published its candidate Q&A for RTD Board District K. I shared my plans for safer, more reliable service, responsible budgeting and stronger transit across the North Front Range. Read the candidates’ responses here: www.denverpost.com/2026/10/03/r...denverpost.comColorado RTD Director District K candidate Q&AThe race features Michael Farrington and Jessica Sandgren 010
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 23/09/2026I guess I should share here too that I have passed the bar exam. Thanks much to the legal community here and on Twitter that mentored me! 060
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Exactly. I do not think that meeting with DSA would have hurt her per se, but filing in Dec definitely did. 020
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 17/07/2026When on one hand the city is telling us they cannot do anything to help support RTD and on the other spending money on advertising around climate I am skeptical 010

Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 17/07/2026I have a guest column in the Brighton Standard Blade, Westminster Window, and other local papers this week on BroncosRide and RTD’s continued failure to deliver for the north Front Range. We need to ask for more and fight to protect routes like the RX. Link in the comments. 100
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 03/06/2026Today marks five months to the general election. I’m proud to be able to announce another wave of endorsements, from leaders all over Colorado’s front range that know it’s time for change at RTD. Thank you to the 60+ people and organizations that believe in an RTD that works for everyone. 010
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 28/05/2026Post primary I would love to talk about my race to flip an RTD seat! 010
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 23/05/2026Well I don’t disagree that Zach can lack nuance at times, I’m just not sure skipping nuance right back is particularly useful 🫣 GIT will be a massive step forward, and if it passes with a large enough margin I think property tax reform is likely to follow. 100
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 23/05/2026I mean, Zach is right that sales tax is regressive. We should definitely move away from sales taxes and instead do property taxes. I don’t think he’s arguing for fewer taxes, just a better system. 110
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 22/05/2026I think Zach is advocating for property taxes, not fewer taxes! 101
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 25/04/2026CD-08 D+4 beause of gas alone inshallah 000
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 22/04/2026Seems like under these specific facts its not insane. Folks, dont unlock and hand your phone to the police :sigh: 000
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 10/04/2026She’s almost certainly running for president 110
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 10/04/2026I really appreciate that both the major candidates are taking commerce city seriously this round. Certain other leaders wrote us of in the past and it means a lot to see a better set of dems doing better. 010
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 10/04/2026We know folks are going downtown for the playoffs more and working from the office less--time for RTD to catch up with the times! Thanks for your support! 000
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 10/04/2026Now that the Rockies are going to be good, we need RTD to be good so you can get to the game (and safely home after a 9-9-9)!! Learn about my plan to bring back RockiesRide: michaelforrtd.com/issues 131
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 10/04/2026Far be it from be to defend this admin, but a statue representing God would be substantially more offensive than the metaphorical representation of liberty. I actually have a far bigger issue with the phrase being included than the statute as a fairly anti-iconoclastic Christian who is a pluralist 100
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 09/04/2026We also override HOAs with most of our stuff here in Colorado lol 140
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 08/04/2026Like a month. We do actually look better so far 010
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 08/04/2026Proud to share that I have been recognized by @momsdemandaction.org as a Gun Sense Candidate! We need to make the safety of our communities a priority and I am proud to be recognized for that shared value. 011
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 08/04/2026Finally. Now to get some new board members and update the COA and maybe we can start the long road back to being a good agency 000
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 08/04/2026Great day for RTD: we have Jarrett Walker joining us and Debra Johnson leaving! There is hope ahead for the agency. 020
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 03/04/2026Guy who agrees with the Colorado Court that this was a ridiculous sentence because he thinks that most sentences for completely nonviolent conduct being nine years is ridiculous: Population two: Michael and John 110
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 01/04/2026Kavs seemed pretty skeptical to me. My feeling is 7-2 but Kavs writing a concurrence 010
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 30/03/2026It’s genuinely hilarious how after a certain candidates abysmal showing at caucus and state assembly every single Serious Thinker in politics is all repeating the exact same talking points from a couple of PR firms. 010
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 30/03/2026Caucus is good. Party insiders (those of us who actually show up, knock on doors and run campaigns) should have an elevated voice by merely showing up instead of people who tweet about politics all the time and can’t show up to a school for a few hours every two years. 000
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 29/03/2026Exactly what a bunch of were doing this weekend 010
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 29/03/2026Since this is not the regular stadium this is accurate! 000
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 29/03/2026Also it was totally possible to do both! I joined two protests before the game started! 041
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 29/03/2026Not a dome, not accessible via transit, it’s old, and the location should be housing. 000
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 27/03/2026Looks like a big factor is reduction of car thefts at the airport and the Kia / Hyundai getting their systems together were big factors too 000
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 27/03/2026My guess is a renewed priority of car theft for PDs, tougher approach from Walsh since his election, and flock/other database camera systems. 100
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 25/03/2026Thanks folks! Great working on this one with you. See you at another signing soon 😉 011
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 25/03/2026I couldn't be prouder to be one of many voices in supporting this vital legislation to make housing easier to build. Lots of folks say they want to build affordable housing--I mean it. Fun fact: the HOME Act allows RTD to build more housing... Wonder if anyone is running on doing just that? 020
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 24/03/2026Not to mention, I imagine the computing demands were just ridiculous 010
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 24/03/2026I’m not really a prestige focused guy (I went to community college after all!) but to me it’s undeniable that the network and hard work are demonstrated and improved via college. Not a law of nature but a great rule of thumb. 000
Michael A. Farrington @mikefromco.bsky.social · 24/03/2026I’ve said this before on another site; but being out and out super anti ai will be boomer and lefty coded—like saving the whales was in the 90s or being vegan is today—in the 2030s. Progressives are just fundamentally not well suited to be small-c conservative about anything but especially tech 000
