Andrew Romanoff officially kicked of his Congressional bid last week in Aurora.
More than 500 enthusiastic supporters, including State Rep. Rhonda Fields and Hon. Ken Salazar, gathered at Dora’s Mexican Restaurant in Aurora for the official launch, because what better way to launch a campaign than with delicious Mexican food?
The race for Colorado’s 6th district will be one of the most-watched races nationally, as it is one of the few congressional seats in the country with a chance of flipping parties. Andrew Romanoff — energetic, committed, and charismatic — has been a strong fundraiser, bringing in about $2 million in 2013, and edging out his opponent in cash on hand.
With a national approval rating of 12%, the Republican incumbent in a Republican-controlled Congress looks vulnerable, and all eyes will be on this race.
