The Denver Post today has an Energy
Q&A with Senate candidates,
Bob Schaffer (R) and
Mark Udall (D). Good news for the nuclear industry: both support its expansion.
Do you support the expansion of nuclear energy?
Schaffer: Yes. Bob Schaffer supports safe and environmentally responsible expansion of nuclear energy. Nuclear energy is cost-effective, efficient and just one plant can produce a great deal of energy. France, for example, depends on nuclear for 75% of its energy. Nuclear can and should be part of America's strategy to achieve energy independence.
Udall: Yes. Given our nation's energy crisis, its effects on our national security, and the threat of global climate change, I think nuclear power has to be "on the table" in the mix of power sources we look to for the 21st Century.
Schaffer and Udall are running for the seat vacated by
Wayne Allard (R). The RealClearPolitics
average currently has Udall up by 8.3%.
