AINews Summary

Last updatedJul 10, 2026

Dwayne Romero is running in the Democratic primary for Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District, where he is one of the candidates trying to win the nomination to challenge Republican Rep. Jeff Hurd. In a recent opinion piece, he said his campaign would focus on opposing Donald Trump, protecting mail-in voting, defending the Constitution, and addressing rural health care, Social Security, Medicare, housing, and the cost of living. The district is considered Republican-leaning, so his race is part of a difficult House contest for Democrats.
