Democrats' 2028 presidential auditions begin in Denver
A who's who of Democratic power players descends on Denver this week to plot the party's future, fresh off its sweeping midterm victories . Why it matters: The gathering gives Democrats' rising stars an early stage to test their 2028 message, and explore whether Colorado's red-to- deep-blue shift could offer a national playbook. Driving the news: The three-day " What's Next " conference, starting Thursday, features dozens of Democratic heavyweights and potential presidential contenders, including House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries , Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro , Texas Sen.-elect James Talarico and former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg . Colorado's own Gov.-elect Phil Weiser , U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet, U.S. Rep. Joe Neguse and Denver Mayor Mike Johnston round out the lineup. Majority Democrats, a group seeking to shape the party's direction, is organizing the event. The big picture: Colorado's two-decade transformation into a Democratic powerhouse made it a natural host, spokesperson Vidhya Jeyadev told Axios. Organizers want to dissect and pinpoint what worked — and what didn't — in the midterms, and how to turn wins into lasting power. The gathering comes as Democrats debate whether they should double down on progressive policies or tack toward the center heading into 2028.

Project Bulletin, November 9, 2026: Camden, Arkansas; Jonesborough, Tennessee; Centennial, Colorado
Last week, Lockheed Martin announced plans for a $420 million expansion of its operations in southern Arkansas. The company is aiming to increase production capacity for the U.S. Department of War’s (DOW) PAC-3, Terminal High Altitude Area Defense and Precision Strike Missile platforms at the 2,427-acre Camden site. The current 2.2-million-sq.-ft. facility houses production for seven DOW programs which has supplied over 700,000 rockets and missiles in the past four decades. This expansion follows Lockheed’s January 2026 investment to construct a new Munitions Acceleration Center in the city, further deepening the company’s footprint in the region while enhancing technical capabilities. “Lockheed Martin is investing at unprecedented speed and scale to expand manufacturing capacity and deliver the critical capabilities our warfighters need, faster,” said Lockheed Martin Camden Site General Manager Adam Bailey. “For more than four decades, Camden has played a vital role in strengthening our nation’s defense, and this investment marks another significant step in accelerating production, advancing next-generation manufacturing and creating 650 new jobs.”

Colorado voters approve transit tax despite economy
(The Center Square) - Colorado voters approved a sales tax increase to fund a transit project that could cost the state over $1 billion in gross domestic product over the next 10 years. Residents in the Front Range Passenger Rail District voted 56% to 44% in favor of Ballot Issue 7A, which would create a 0.33% sales tax for the district, including 31 cities such as Denver, Boulder, Fort Collins, Pueblo and Colorado Springs. The Nov. 3 ballot initiative is expected to raise an estimated $295 million annually for the Front Range Passenger Rail District. The extra tax revenue will help the public agency expand its starter rail route between Denver and Fort Collins to Colorado Springs and Pueblo while increasing train frequency across the corridor. The Denver-to-Fort Collins route is expected to start in 2029, while the others are anticipated to begin in 2032. Sal Pace, general manager of the Front Range Passenger Rail District, said Colorado is “one of the most congested states in the country,” especially in the Denver metropolitan area. “On average, people are losing two entire full work weeks every single year being stuck in traffic,” he told The Center Square.

(The Center Square) - Mayor Mike Coffman said he will propose another data center moratorium after Aurora City Council once again failed to reconsider an earlier ban.

But none did, so there was no vote.
