Colorado: Ted Harvey

With Primary Day being held Tuesday, PolitickerCO.com takes a look at the four competitive congressional primary races in Colorado.

1ST CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT

Incumbent: Diana DeGette (D-Denver)

Candidates:

Some 6th Congressional District Republican primary campaigns have commissioned pollsters to survey how the race is playing out.

But Steve Ward's campaign prefers to poll 6th District voters the old-fashioned way: by going door-to-door themselves and asking them.

Ward and about 90 campaign canvassers have talked to about 2,400 6th District residents (out of about 10,000 houses hit in total) from around the district since the state senator from Littleton began campaigning in March.

The Fourth of July is about fireworks, barbecuing, parades and -- of course -- politicking. Here's where Colorado candidates for U.S. Senate and Congress will be on America's birthday:

U.S. Senate:

Bob Kinsey (G):

• Green Party party, Avogadro's Number, Fort Collins, 2 p.m.

Bob Schaffer (R):

• Greeley Stampede and Independence Day parade, 9 a.m.

Mark Udall (D):

Sixth Congressional District Republican candidate Ted Harvey has picked up an endorsement from the Credit Union Association of Colorado, Harvey's campaign announced Tuesday.

“No business group in Colorado has a more impressive and well organized grassroots mobilization network than the Credit Unions," Harvey said in a release sent out Tuesday. "To have their powerful backing combined with my authentic record of conservative leadership means Republican voters will be mobilized in my favor in time for early voting in just a couple of weeks."
