STATE BILL COLORADO
Abigail Vacanti, for two years the spokeswoman for the Colorado Senate Democrats, is taking a job with Denver political-consulting shop SE2. Her last day is Dec. 22.
Meanwhile, House Democratic spokeswoman Katie Reinsich also has given her notice. Reinisch and her husband, who teaches international law at the University of Denver Sturm College of Law, plan an entrepreneurial venture: a frozen yogurt shop. “I’m going to create jobs,” she said.
Vacanti, a former anchor producer for cable-news network CNN, said her job was an opportunity she couldn’t pass up. She’s leaving with the Senate Democrats still solidly in the majority, 20-15. The House Democrats lost their majority and have a slim minority: 33-32.
Jack Wylie, the deputy spokesman for the Senate Dems, is staying on. There’s no word on when either successor will be named.
