Colorado GOP Picks Victor Marx For Governor
2 days ago
Marine Corps veteran Victor Marx has won the Republican primary for Colorado governor, narrowly defeating establishment-backed state Sen. Barbara Kirkmeyer in a closely watched race.
Marx, founder of All Things Possible Ministries, will now face Democratic Attorney General Phil Weiser in the November general election. The Republican nominee celebrated the victory as proof that voters wanted a political outsider to lead the party.
Republicans have not won Colorado's governor's race in more than 20 years, making the general election an uphill battle in a state that has increasingly favored Democrats.
