DO NOT REMOVE Mr. Danny Moore from his seat on this commission. His community conscience and brilliant insights would be a tremendous loss for the political health of Colorado if he were to be removed!

Comment:
This being the first time Colorado is implementing the independent commission process, was likely to find possible flaws. In order to get a better understanding of a person’s character and beliefs, a search of social media and other public information should be added to the process for future years. The result of not doing that for the initial choice of commission members resulted in the approval of Danny Moore as the new chair of the Colorado Independent Congressional Commission Committee. Danny Moore publicly proclaimed that the 2020 elections was not fair. This goes against the non-biased selection criteria; Danny Moore should therefore be strongly encouraged to resign in order adhere to the commission member criteria.

To Everyone This Message Concerns,
I write you in support of Danny Moore as Chairman of the Colorado Independent Congressional Redistricting Commission.
I have known Danny since 2019 where we were part of Leadership Program of the Rockies (LPR). Due to his character, integrity, successful business background, and leadership, he was not just a member of this group, he was elected overwhelmingly as President of that year's LPR class. This is a man who leads by example to ensure people and processes are treated fairly and with respect.
By all means should he remain on this Commission to ensure the integrity of the redistricting process in Colorado.
Sincerely,
Michael A. Cummings

I fully support Danny Moore as Chair for the Colorado Independent Congressional Redistricting Commission. He is a person who is fair, listens and has integrity. He currently owns and operates a growing Colorado business clearly demonstrating his leadership skills and the ability to navigate various situations. Danny Moore’s leader skills would be extremely beneficial to this commission.

Comment:
Very concerned about Danny Moore being the chair of the Congressional Redistricting Commission. He has regularly questioned the legitimacy of the 2020 Presidential election results (hence questioning our democratic process, including the legitimacy of mail-in voting) when after multiple investigations there have been no pieces of evidence supporting such claims.
He has also publicly made use of some very biased language and that certainly makes this individual not the unbiased leadership figure one would require of such a commission.
Using terms like "Chinese virus" does not suit a leader of such a commission. Language like this has increasingly made lives harder and has caused further division, in this country of natives, settlers, and immigrants and is evident in recent rise of anti-Asian racist bias and attacks.

Danny Moore should not have made it to the commission. It is supremely disappointing that the selection process did not include perusing candidates social media spaces. It is truly disheartening that a black man would espouse such racist comments as he has.
He must be disqualified for his xenophobic and racist views and a new candidate selected.
At the absolute minimum, he must relinquish his leadership role on the commission.

I am writing today to express my support for Danny Moore as chairman of the Colorado redistricting commission. Colorado needs strong Leaders with unquestionable ethics leading this most vital Commission. I have known Danny Moore in a professional capacity for years and his ethics, leadership and commitment are unquestionable. The citizens of the state of Colorado will be well-served with his participation on the Colorado redistricting Commission.

Danny D. Moore has my complete faith and confidence that he will be an honest and fair in his capacity as Chairman. His background and experience make him more than qualified.

Comment:
It has come to our attention that the current chairman of the Colorado Redistricting Committee, Danny Moore, has made disparaging comments that question his ability to lead in an impartial manner for the good of the people of Colorado. We find his comments about the Asian community and promoting false statements around the integrity of our elections completely disturbing, particularly since it led to violence in our capitol and the loss of life. Given the importance and significance of the redistricting process, we believe Danny Moore lacks the integrity to chair this process. We stand with the All on the Line and community members in their call for his resignation.

I have heard there has been some turmoil surrounding Danny Moore and his place on the commission. Danny Moore is a very good individual with a track record of standing up for what is right for people. As a Colorado small business owner who takes care of his employees by providing them with benefits such as fully paid health care, time off, and a great 401k matching plan he has shown that he cares about doing what is right for the people without regard to political pressure. The fact that he came up from his humble beginnings to owning his own business and wanting to provide his employees the benefits his family didnt have growing up goes to show the type of character he has when he could easily have tried to build his company while only providing minimal benefits to his employees goes to show the type of man he is.
