Megan Verlee reports on the 7th CD race for Morning Edition.
Colorado’s 7th Congressional District was originally designed to be competitive, but in the past three elections, Democrat Ed Perlmutter has fought off all competitors. This November, Republican Joe Coors hopes to change that, challenging Perlmutter in a redrawn district that’s redder than before.
As part of this year’s election coverage KUNC, along with Colorado Public Radio, will provide overviews of this year’s congressional races starting Monday during Morning Edition.
