Colorado Democrats Spent $500k to Boost Far-Right Republican Ron Hanks

Colorado Democrats are throwing more than $500,000 into a GOP primary to boost a far-right Republican.

Rocky Mountain Values, a Democratic PAC, and congressional candidate Adam Frisch have spent $400,000 highlighting Ron Hanks, a primary candidate who attended the January 6 “Stop the Steal” rally and claims former president Donald Trump won the 2020 election. Democrats have also bought more than $100,000 in TV ads attacking the GOP primary’s frontrunner, Jeff Hurd, presuming Hanks would be easier to beat in November.
