Momentum is building behind Republican Pam Anderson’s run for Colorado’s Secretary of State’s office, with a bevy of respectable folks lining up behind her with their support and endorsements.
Colorado Springs Mayor John Suthers said we need more dedicated public servants like Anderson in his endorsement.
Former U.S. Sen. Hank Brown and former U.S. Rep. Scott McInnis have also endorsed the former Jefferson County Clerk.
She’s got former secretaries of state backing her bid including Wayne Williams, who now serves on the Colorado Springs City council, and Mike Coffman, who is shaking things up for the better as mayor of Aurora.
It’s a decent and honorable list of supporters Anderson is attracting, who are betting she’s the candidate to take down Democrat Jena Griswold in a head-to-head, General Election battle.
Colorado Politics has the complete list of endorsements, plus this response from Anderson:
“These respected leaders have won races and developed important policies that improve our state. They trust and respect the will of the voters and the system we’ve built to govern ourselves. That’s what I’m fighting for in this race.”
Before she advances to the general election, Anderson will first have to get past two opponents in the June 28 Republican primary — Yuma County business consultant Michael O’Donnell and Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters.
