The Republicans running in the June primary in Colorado’s 4th Congressional District threw more elbows than punches in a televised debate on Thursday night in Denver, with most of the jabs aimed at U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert, though her rivals also took hits.
During the fast-paced, hour-long debate, the six Republicans running for the seat left vacant by former U.S. Rep. Ken Buck traded blows over immigration policy, electability and each other’s ability to bring legislation across the finish line.
Sponsored by 9News and Colorado Politics, the debate aired live on the Denver TV station and streamed online, where it’s archived for later viewing. The station’s Kyle Clark and Marshall Zelinger moderated, with additional questions from Colorado Politics Editor Luige Del Puerto.
