Colorado’s Wild Political Shift | Denver News

Victor Marx, a Republican gubernatorial frontrunner with zero government experience, is winning over 40% of GOP primary voters—despite his “unique” background—sparking concern that Colorado’s political direction may continue leaning left. His rise sidelines more seasoned candidates like Barbara Kirkmeyer, who could’ve energized a more competitive general election.

Colorado’s elections keep delivering wild, unpredictable surprises.
