Democratic delegates sent Trisha Calvarese and John Padora to Colorado’s 4th Congressional District primary ballot Thursday night at an online assembly.
They join Ike McCorkle, a Marine veteran and two-time previous nominee for the seat, who qualified for the primary earlier this week by petition.
Covering Douglas County, parts of Larimer and Weld counties and the Eastern Plains, the 4th CD was formerly represented by Ken Buck, a five-term Republican who resigned from Congress last month. It’s Colorado’s most solidly Republican congressional district.
The June 25 primary election will appear on the same ballot as a special election to fill the six months remaining in Buck’s term.
