InfoErik Monroe Underwood

I am from a single parent household (the oldest of six children), grew up in 3 housing projects, and escaped from being shot at when I was a teenager. An avid athlete, I was a hurdling champion (110 and 400 meter hurdles) in high school and in college.

I graduated from Central State University with a concentration on International Relations - Political Science. As a media tech entrepreneur and businessman, I own and launched a cutting edge media technology company (My24HourNews.Com) which spawned a $102 million joint venture with AT&T (2012). I also own a personal assistant search engine called E.R.I.C.A.

The U.S.Senate needs more Americans of Color in the upper chamber to help shape legislation and the conversations that we need to have as a Country. I will not leave anyone behind, especially rural and urban Americans.

I am running for U.S. Senate because I have the unique experience to bring forth meaningful legislation. Enough talk, we need action to solve some of our lingering problems here in this Country. I will work across the isle to help move this Country forward without sacrificing my soul or moral compass, Having worked in the U.S Senate years ago and as a leader who understands where this Country needs to be; I know we need new voices of leadership, not stale or recycled ones. I want Coloradans to send me to the U.S. Senate as a leading voice in the Senate, not as a get in line follower.

While I am aiming to make history to become the first American of Color to represent Colorado in the U.S. Senate, I have a platform that I plan to implement, moving our Country in a new direction. Please go to my Issue - Platform page to learn more about the issues you care about.
