Noel Ginsburg Gets Gubernatorial Campaign for Christmas

[TexasTowelie]

You read it here first on Colorado Pols earlier this week: Businessman Noel Ginsburg looks to be the first official Democratic candidate for Governor in 2018.

According to a press release dated December 22, 2016, Ginsburg “has filed with the Secretary of State to be a candidate for Governor of Colorado in 2018.” As of this writing, Ginsburg’s candidacy is not listed on the Secretary of State’s website, though that could just be a delay due to the holiday season.

According to a bio attached to the press release:

Noel Ginsburg is a manufacturing entrepreneur and trusted civic leader. Ginsburg serves as the Chairman and CEO of Intertech Plastics as well as the founding CEO and Chairman of CareerWise Colorado, a statewide system of innovative, business-led youth apprenticeships.

Ginsburg currently chairs the Denver Public Schools College and Career Pathways Council. He has previously served as the chair of the Denver Public Schools Foundation, the Mile High United Way and JEWISHcolorado (formerly the Allied Jewish Federation of Colorado). In addition, Noel served as Founding Board Chair for Colorado I Have a Dream Foundation. He and his wife Leslie are Colorado natives and have two adult children.

2. I haven't heard about any Democrats,

but it looks like the state treasurer is a likely GOP candidate.
