As AuH2o pointed out, Darryl Glenn’s biggest problem seems to be being low on $$, so hopefully he’ll get some love in that area.
Curious that Calandra Vargas is not even listed as a candidate on Politics1, and she managed to win over Lamborn for a ballot slot. That’s embarrassing for Lamborn.
Paging the NRSC, turn on the spigot. Keyser seems good too but I’m inclined to favor Glenn after this. This was a significant event and seems like just the kind of thing the CO GOP needed to inject some energy into this race.
The article says Vargas was a write in (at the convo?) which adds another layer of wow, humiliating for Lamborn. She seems to have come out of no where. Gunzberger hasn’t updated Politics1 but Ourcampaigns has her

Is it called a convention or an assembly?

Video at link, haven’t watched it,
According to one article I read you can submit petitions and still try to get nominated at the convo and if you get at least 10% at the convo you can still get on via petition. But Neville didn’t take that precaution (deadline was Apr. 4th) being confident of getting at least 30% at the convo (and in fact confident of winning it).
I don’t know if Lamborn took the precaution or if incumbents are exempted from the 30% requirement, if no on both counts, then he’s lucky to even be on the primary ballot. I gotta think he’s still favored in the primary though.
