A Colorado judge has ruled “Let’s go Bandon” will not be on the Republican primary ballot as a candidate for Colorado’s 5th Congressional District representing the Colorado Springs area.
That’s the nickname state Rep. Dave Williams wanted to use on the ballot instead of his own name, but the Secretary of State’s office said no, 9News reports.
To the court’s satisfaction, Williams proved proper use of “Let’s Go Brandon” as a nickname.
However, state law says a nickname can only be used on the ballot if it’s actually the person’s nickname.
Technically, it’s Joe Biden’s nickname.
Not surprising, 9News had to explain to their viewers, that “Let’s Go Brandon” is code for “F— Joe Biden.”
Williams, along with Rebecca Keltie and Andrew Heaton, are challenging U.S. Rep. Doug Lamborn for the congressional seat in the June Republican primary.
