The Colorado Republican Party gathered in Colorado Springs at the World Arena over the past weekend to conduct official party business.
The Multi-County District Assemblies were held Friday, April 8 at the Double Tree in Colorado Springs, CO. The first order of business was the State Central Committee Meeting followed by Congressional District assemblies.
The early morning of Friday April 8th began with delegates arriving to obtain credentials so that they may cast a vote for the candidates of their choosing in the Congressional District assemblies.
The highly controversial but ‘apple of the grassroot conservatives’ eye, Lauren Boebert, swept CD3. Boebert became well known and was subsequently elected in 2020 after fighting COVID 19 restrictions in her restaurant in Rifle, Colorado.
In the CD4 race, Representative Ken Buck who did not receive a warm reception from the delegates in attendance, was not the shoe-in that many may have expected. Bob Lewis, an unknown candidate to some CD4 delegates, was nominated on the floor and took 62% of the vote. Lewis will run against Ken Buck on the primary ballot. Buck has been criticized for following the rhetoric that the 2020 election was the “Gold Standard.”
In CD5, incumbent Doug Lambourn protested the assembly and instead opted to petition his way onto the primary ticket in June 2022. Lamborn has become highly unpopular with the Republicans in his district and has gone as far as making a comment about the El Paso County Republican leadership saying, “I officially decline to be nominated at the upcoming 5th CD Assembly this Saturday. I continue to have complete confidence in the 5th Congressional District leadership. They represent the many solidly honest, hard-working people who live here. Sadly, I do not have confidence in the El Paso County Republican leadership.”

The Colorado COP are nothing but Associate Democraps.
Very interesting news story. Even with the reporterette’s snide comments it certainly tells us the fracture(s) in the Republican party.
It leads me to wonder, if Ken Buck wins the nomination, will Bob Lewis supporters vote for Buck in November? And vice versa
The answer is to ask yourself, “Will I vote for a (1) Never Trump Republican, (2)GOPe Republican, (3) MAGA Republican?”.
Unless you can answer YES to all three, I suspect the Republican party is once again in deep doo doo come November and “We the People” are completely fu***d.

Well, that’s the little trap they like to put us in. “vote for our guy of the democrat. You wouldn’t want to vote for the democrat would you??”
I don’t always play along. I’ve blanked several republicans on my ballot and really didn’t care whether they won or lost.
They ALWAYS want us to vote for THEIR guy but when push comes to shove they NEVER vote for OUR guy.
i always vote for my guy. f the gope
if you don’t vote the way you want, you have no right to complain about the government you get.
“Buck has been criticized for following the rhetoric that the 2020 election was the “Gold Standard.”
Very sad that Buck has “fallen”
Sounds like it's straight out the Soviet Union or Red China.
The senate seat is the big enchilada-Bennett. Our candidate is a conspiracy theorist. Won’t work.
Never again. Folks thought what Bush did in Loouisiana was necessary. Then came Alaska. Then Albabma.
Having seen reality, I'd easily vote for the left wing Democrat over George Bush for Texas attorney general if it comes to that in November.
Colorado Ping ( Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)
I used to think highly of Ken Buck (R-CO) and Mo Brooks (R-AL) but their positions on the stolen elections have made me rethink my support for them.
Election integrity is crucial to our Republic. Without it, we have no Republic.
Ever since mail-in voting became the standard in 2013, Colorado was doomed.
Mail-in voting as the norm only gives an incentive to cheat.
Even *France* doesn’t allow for mail-in voting.
France : no mail-in voting, early voting nor voting machines .. citizens must show photo identification and sign a document - to match signatures..

Gold Standard for epic-level voter fraud and corruption.
If he said anything to the contrary, he should be hanged alongside all the other traitors who participated in the coup d’état against President Trump.
