Victor Marx clinches Colorado GOP gubernatorial primary in a razor-thin win
Victor Marx, a first-time candidate, narrowly defeated state Sen. Barbara Kirkmeyer in Colorado’s three-way Republican gubernatorial primary, earning a November showdown against Attorney General Phil Weiser. The victory, aided by Marx’s national social media following and unconventional campaign style, comes amid questions about his fitness for office and Kirkmeyer’s fundraising challenges, with no GOP statewide win in Colorado since 2016 and the general election a high-stakes matchup for the party.
