A campaign video. A young survivor's heartbreaking story. And footage that raises some unexpected questions.

Colorado governor's candidate Victor Marx uses a video featuring dramatic scenes from his military and humanitarian work. But one particularly striking image appears to come from a 2015 PBS NewsHour report about a young Yazidi woman who escaped ISIS captivity.

Audrey McCabe sits down with the two residents to hear the case against all four amendments.

Audrey McCabe talks with local supporters about the case for the four proposed amendments ahead of November's election.
