Phil Weiser on Colorado Primary Win: ‘People Saw My Record Taking on the Trump Administration’

‘Our campaign was about showing up everywhere’

EXCERPT:

WEISER: "Our campaign was about showing up everywhere so that the people of Colorado felt that I was there authentically to listen to them and to fight for them, whether it was issues around affordability, like housing or health care, or standing up against this lawless, bullying Trump Administration. When you think about threats to the republic, this president has consistently run roughshod over the Constitution. We won yet another case last Friday where he tried to take over elections. People saw my record taking on the Trump Administration, taking on big corporations that harm them, and what Coloradans know is I show up, I fight for you, and I get results. That‘s what people want, and that‘s what can win campaigns. We overcame a lot of spending from a super PAC with corporations and out-of-state billionaires all pouring money in to do cynical attack ads. It didn't work because the people of Colorado want a fighter for them, they got behind our campaign."
