Joe Oltmann Untamed | Joe’s Conversation W/ Lori Gimelshteyn: Election Eve Exposé | 11.02.26

On the eve of Election Day, Joe breaks down the races and moments shaping the final hours of the 2026 midterms. In Michigan, a stunning cross-party moment as Democrat Haley Stevens appears alongside Republican Mike Rogers, while Abdul El-Sayed faces mounting scrutiny over his comments on locker room policy and sharp criticism from Black voters. In Arizona, two Maricopa County vote centers close over “power related issues,” reviving memories of the county’s 2022 Election Day breakdowns. Plus, JD Vance makes his case for who America belongs to. Then, Lori Gimelshteyn, Executive Director of the Colorado Parent Advocacy Network, joins the show to talk about the Protect Kids Colorado ballot measures: Proposition 133 on child sex trafficking, Proposition 134 on girls’ sports, and Proposition 135 on gender-related surgeries for minors. We look at Rep. Brittany Pettersen’s opposition and dig into CU Boulder’s new Colorado Political Climate Survey, which shows Proposition 134 at 55% support among likely voters and Proposition 135 between 54% and 63%, depending on how the question is worded. Finally, we take on Amendment 81 and the fight over law enforcement cooperation with ICE, then open the Gregory documents. Christopher Gregory, the former head of Colorado’s judicial discipline commission, has filed a complaint targeting every judge on this year’s retention ballot. At its center: a commission report describing a judge’s sexual relationship with a court staffer that continued inside the courthouse, a judge Gregory identifies as Adams County Judge LeRoy Kirby, and a 2024 letter that warned the state to check judges’ discipline records before voters ever weighed in. Who knew, when did they know, and why weren’t voters told?
