Colorado Governor Nominee Phil Weiser: ‘People Know that I’m a Fighter for Them,’ I’m Taking Actors Who Harm Them

EXCERPT:

WEISER: "I do think, if you‘re a Democrat in Washington and you‘re seen as going along with a system that isn‘t working for people, and in the case of my campaign, Senator Bennet had voted with President Trump‘s cabinet picks more than almost any other Democrat in Washington, I‘ve sued this administration now 67 times and counting, that was a real contrast that people could see. People also can see my job as attorney general that I‘m taking on actors who harm them. I took on proposed grocery store merger that would have hiked up food prices and lost jobs. I‘m taking on Live Nation/Ticketmaster to break them up because they‘re hiking concert ticket prices. People know that I‘m a fighter for them. I‘m getting results. And I also did something that was critical to victory, which is I crisscrossed our state, all 64 counties, and The Durango Herald, the one newspaper that made an endorsement, said that I did so and built meaningful relationships along the way. When people feel seen and heard and cared about, they can trust you. If people don't see you, they don't think you're fighting for them, they don't trust you."
