About this episode
Scott Bottoms discusses his candidacy for governor in the Republican primary, emphasizing his conservative platform.
Colorado hasn’t elected a Republican governor in more than two decades. One candidate on the primary ballot thinks unapologetic conservatism will be the key to changing that. Scott Bottoms is our guest today. Thursday, we'll hear from one of his opponents in the Republican race, Barbara Kirkmeyer. The third candidate on the primary ballot, Victor Marx, has declined an interview. All three candidates answered questions for our voter guide.
