Talk:Jared Polis

message: I would like to know when he moved to Colorado.
The net worth of other very wealthy people is usually listed in their articles.  His most recently calculated net worth, at least, should be included, too.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Waterflaws (talk • contribs) 16:03, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

message: What does the following line mean? 
"He is the first openly gay man elected to the House as a freshman." 
Does it mean that he was openly gay the first time he ran for office? If I've understood it correctly, presumably this means that other gay congressmen/women only game out after being elected. 'Freshman' is a term that seems to be particular to North America so I'm not really sure what it means in this context. Could somebody please expalin. Thanks.

replies: text: Not done: What the source says is not that he does this, but that his staff say that he normally does this. The Denver Post is reliable, but in this case it is reporting a biassed source, so there is risk of advocacy. I'm also concerned about that "normally". --Stfg (talk) 09:53, 22 October 2013 (UTC)

message: "Polis is one of the few openly gay people elected"
"Polis and his partner, Marlon Reis, have two children: son Caspian Julius, born on September 30, 2011, and daughter Cora Barucha, born July 4, 2014."
How is it possible? I mean, if he is a gay (so his partner is also a man), then who was the mother of the kids? 85.67.253.118 (talk) 09:08, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Seriously? ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:24, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes. The question remains. Who is the mother? Or if, as is most likely, there was some kind of payout and then a Non Disclosure Agreement focused on the surrender of that woman's children to Polis, is there any kind of knowledge or documentation of that transaction?. Because a transaction it certainly was. 2601:282:1E81:A9B0:2149:1E40:7471:1A11 (talk) 08:05, 21 January 2024 (UTC)
thread_title:  Kids, how? 

message: The 2018 gubernatorial race wasn't that close, yes, but does an 11 point margin count as a landslide? I get that it's a large-ish swing, but usually when I see landslide victory invoked, we're talking winning by a 2:1 margin or something. A landslide is "when one candidate or party receives an overwhelming majority of the votes or seats in the elected body, thus all but utterly eliminating the opponents." Thoughts? TheSavageNorwegian 08:40, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: After some additional research, it seems like the term landslide is reserved for a result that is significantly larger than what was expected. In light of that it makes a bit more sense to call this a landslide, since previous gubernatorial races had much smaller margins. Still not sure if we should leave it though.

message: At the top of page it says: "and was the third-wealthiest member of the United States Congress, with an estimated net worth of $122.6 million" but than further under the Business career section it say: "During his tenure in Congress, Polis was among its wealthiest members; his net worth was estimated at over $300 million". I suggest it be changed so that there is no conflicting info.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.226.179.58 (talk) 14:19, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
