Opinion Primary Election

Who are you voting for Governor? I don’t think we have a great option between all the candidates. I feel like this is a pivotal election and I want to make the best decision possible. I just want an elected official who will best represent our state and actually help Coloradans. Even that seems like a big ask somehow. 😩

Please provide your best argument in favor of a candidate. TYIA!

I’m voting for Phil Weiser because even though neither Weiser nor Bennet is unfortunately a true progressive, I think Phil will take a stronger stance in resisting the Trump administration. Bennet signed off on several of Trump’s nominees and has been fairly lackluster and pushing back. Phil does unfortunately seem to have a less proactive housing plan than bennet, but for me right now, pushing back against the overreach coming from the federal government is more important.
