Victor Marx wins the Republican primary for Colorado governor and is projected to advance to the general election against Democratic state Attorney General Phil Weiser. Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ) projects Marx will succeed outgoing Democratic Gov. Jared Polis. In the GOP primary, Marx defeats state Sen. Barbara Kirkmeyer and state Rep. Scott Bottoms to secure the party’s nomination. Coverage also notes that Marx has drawn public attention due to a claim he made about killing a man when he was a child. The sources agree on the primary’s outcome, Marx’s nomination, and the matchup for the general election between Marx and Weiser. The Winnipeg Free Press and The Hill focus on the nomination result, while NBC News includes additional context about the child-killing claim that has shaped public discussion around Marx. All accounts indicate the election will determine the next governor of Colorado, with Marx moving forward as the Republican candidate.
