Colorado Senate candidate Joe O’Dea said in an interview that he would “actively” campaign against Trump in the 2024 presidential primary. Trump fired back.
But O’Dea’s candidacy is also testing the forbearance of the state’s base voters, who are being asked to support a candidate who is feuding with Trump.
George Brauchler, a former Republican district attorney, told them they could send their letter about how “unhappy” they are to Sen. Joe O’Dea next year instead of to the incumbent, Democratic Sen. Michael F. Bennet. “That’s how you know you’ve made progress in the state of Colorado,” he said. “It will prove to these unaffiliateds that O’Dea has a spine,” said state GOP Rep. Colin Larson, who has endorsed O’Dea. “He’s proving that he’s able to stand up to the biggest bully in his party.”
Bennet, who’s running for a third full term in the Senate, led by seven percentage points among voters overall — but by just three percentage points among crucial independent voters. President Biden’s approval rating was 40 percent among voters there, underscoring Bennet’s vulnerability.
