Mike Johnston is the first Democrat to leave the Colorado Senate race after former Gov. John Hickenlooper launched his campaign last month
Mike Johnston ended his Senate campaign in Colorado on Tuesday, becoming the first Democrat to leave the race after former Gov. John Hickenlooper launched his campaign last month.
He added that a grueling and expensive primary "would have risked the chance of weakening the eventual nominee so that we could have lost to Gardner and lost the seat, and that's the opposite of what everybody that came to our campaign came to accomplish." Colorado is a must-win state for Democrats to have any path back to the Senate majority.
He added that he was not encouraging other candidates in the race to follow his lead and drop their bids, but that he saw avoiding an expensive primary as the most productive path forward. He said the Supreme Court, action on climate change and "democracy reform" were at stake in the race.
