Coloradans like their senators

While I appreciate the Politiler indy stance, its still important to admit mistakes. Here is the original version of this article:

"U.S. Rep. Mark Udall (D-Eldorado Springs) is successful in his challenge of U.S. Sen. Wayne Allard (R-Loveland), Allard would be just the sixth incumbent U.S. Senator from Colorado to lose a re-election race.

Since direct elections began in Colorado in 1912, there are only five instances of incumbent U.S. Senators losing to challengers. The first time was in 1918 when Lawrence Phipps (R) unseated U.S. Sen. John Shafroth (D). More than four relatively uneventful decades passed until Peter Dominick (R) defeated John Carroll (D) in 1962. In 1972, Floyd Haskell (D) narrowly defeated Gordon Allott (R) only to be unseated six years later by William Armstrong (R). Most recently, then-U.S. Rep. Wayne Allard (R) defeated incumbent U.S. Sen. Tom Strickland (D) in 1996."

Here's what Wally posted before and took down without noting any correction:
