Colorado Democrats are raising the profile of a Republican running for the 3rd Congressional District of the state ahead of Tuesday’s primary.

Rep. Lauren Boebert, who is vacating her seat in Colorado’s Fourth Congressional District, is running for the seat. Democrats hope to flip this seat in November.

According to The Hill a Democrat super PAC called Rocky Mountain Values PAC and Adam Frisch’s campaign run ads against Republican candidate Ron Hanks.

Hanks can be heard saying in an ad for the Rocky Mountain Values PAC that “immigration” needs to stop at the southern border. The narrator adds that Hanks’ views are “too conservative.”

Hanks’ response to the advertisement was, “I am glad that they are not lying about me. The Republicans are now lying about me. “Isn’t this an ironic turn?”

Hanks criticized Republicans for an ad from the Congressional Leadership Fund (a super PAC aligned with House Republicans). Hanks was portrayed as “anti-gun,” and as having “abandoned” President Trump in the ad.

The Hill reported Hanks was unfazed. He noted that he attended a political rally in 2021 and did not believe that President Joe Biden had won the election.
