Anna Stout said she has a story that southern and western Coloradans can relate to.
The 38-year-old candidate for Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District seat is in the process of sharing her story growing up in Grand Junction, where she currently serves as mayor and where she began demonstrating leadership skills at a young age.
“My neighbors in southern Colorado have been asking for someone that they can get behind, get excited about,” said Stout, who announced her candidacy for the Democratic nomination in late July. “I’ve had people approach me and ask if I’d be willing to do this for a long time. I’ve been putting serious thought into it since last year’s Republican primary,” when former state Sen. Don Coram lost to the incumbent U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert.
Stout said she pondered what kind of candidate, if not Coram, could beat Boebert. She decided she herself fit the profile. |
