BRIGHTON, Colo. - The swing dancers and loud Frank Sinatra impersonator didn't merit even a glance from Andrew Romanoff at a recent Adams County Fair event. The Democrat paid attention only to voters as he moved from table to table at a breakfast for seniors.
Romanoff has missed political chances before, and he's trying to make sure it doesn't happen again as he challenges Rep. Mike Coffman for his U.S. House seat in the 6th Congressional District.
The suburban Denver district was reshaped after the 2010 census, and Democrats say they have an opportunity to take it from the GOP for the first time.
The district is now almost evenly divided among Democrats, Republicans and independents, and it's also the state's most ethnically diverse. Latinos make up about 20 percent, and blacks and Asians make up more than 13 percent of the district. Recent immigrants make up a sizable voting bloc in an area where Ethiopian and Korean restaurants share strip malls.
"This district is to me the most exciting in the country," Romanoff said over lunch recently at a Thai restaurant in Aurora. "It's home to people from so many different countries and who deserve a representative that celebrates our diversity."
The comment was a dig at Coffman, who was elected in 2008, when the district was 90 percent white and heavily Republican.
Coffman, a three-term incumbent, has recognized the changes and shifted his approach.
"This is really my first re-election in what is arguably a new district, where 40 percent of the district is areas I haven't had before," Coffman said after addressing job-seekers at an Aurora employment fair. "The people in the district are very different. So, yeah, I've had to refocus."
Coffman's new outreach strategy centers on personal interaction and includes taking Spanish classes, visiting Korean churches and working the counter at an Aurora convenience store to meet voters.
He's even shifted his stance on core issues, such as immigration. Before the district was reshaped, Coffman sponsored a measure to require English-only ballots and said in 2010 that a proposal to allow permanent residency for some immigrants brought to this country illegally as children would be "a nightmare for the American people."

Democrat Andrew Romanoff seeks political revival
After President Barack Obama said he didn't yet have a strategy for ISIS in Syria, even a Democrat on Sunday criticized the President's approach to fighting the extremist terror group.
There's been the expected GOP criticism: Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Illinois, said the President's statement was "unfortunate," a predictable assessment from someone who disagrees with the Obama's handling of foreign policy.
But more notable is Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee, who split with the leader of her party.
"I think I've learned one thing about this President and that is he's very cautious. Maybe in this instance, too cautious," the California Democrat said on NBC's "Meet the Press."
Feinstein's description comes as the Obama administration is implementing a split strategy in dealing with the group now calling itself the Islamic State.
In Iraq, where America recently concluded a long war there, the United States has continued airstrikes against ISIS, including strikes near Amerli Saturday. In Syria, meanwhile, the President has been reluctant to pursue military action as a complicated web of factions, including ISIS, is fighting to defeat President Bashar al-Assad, also a U.S. opponent.
The threat
While members of both parties indicated that Syria is the most dangerous country in the world right now as it is considered ISIS' home base, Republicans differed from Democrats in that they insisted that the threat ISIS poses to the U.S. is immediate. "I believe strongly that ISIS does plan on attacking the United States," Rep. Peter King said on "Fox News Sunday."
Sen. John McCain went even further on CBS News' "Face the Nation": "I think it starts with an understanding that this is a direct threat to the United States of America, that it may be one of the biggest we have ever faced."
The top Republicans' statements come just days after British Prime Minister David Cameron elevated the terror threat to "severe," the second-highest rating for that country.
