A who’s who of Colorado politics will assemble Sunday, Sept. 15, for the Rocky Mountain Rumble at the Wide Open Saloon in Sedalia.
Republican nominees for the U.S. House will be joined by Heidi Ganahl, formerly a Republican candidate for Colorado governor and founder of Rocky Mountain Voice, during the Rocky Mountain Rumble. Confirmed speakers include U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert, John Fabbricatore and Valdamar Archuleta. Also attending will be Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jurinski, who has been at the forefront of exposing the Venezuelan gang takeover of apartments in Aurora.
Boebert presently serves in Colorado’s 3rd District in the U.S. House, but is seeking election in the 4th District, the most Republican leaning district in Colorado. Fabbricatore is out to flip the 6th District for Republicans in a area presently held by Democratic U.S. Rep. Jason Crow. Archuleta is vying to unseat Democratic U.S. Rep. Diane DeGette in the most Democratic leaning district in Colorado.
If Republicans could hold the three U.S. House seats it presently has, pick up a win with Gabe Evans in the 4th District and win any other seat, the party would have a majority of the congressional seats in Colorado and deliver a plus-two seat gain to U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson. Republicans presently hold the third, fourth and fifth districts.
The Rocky Mountain Rumble is aimed at getting out the conservative vote in November. In addition to food and fun, the Randy Burghardt Band is slated to play. Tickets are free, but RSVP’s are encouraged because of limited space. Visit rhs.nucleuspages.com/events/rocky-mountain-rumble-wo for information.
