We have big news: Rep. Ken Buck, who has represented this district since 2015, announced that he will not run for another term—setting up a competitive contest for an open seat in a year where House control hinges on the results of a handful of key elections.
Ken Buck's likely successor, MAGA lunatic Trent Leisy, always wears his MAGA King hat and a shirt with Trump's image that reads: "Sexiest Man Alive"
In his retirement announcement, Buck cited that he is tired of his party doubling down on Trump’s 2020 election lie, and the death threats he has gotten from his base. He also must have known that he would be forced to spend resources in a primary challenge—and then face off with me in the general election.
I am ready to fight for and win this seat to stop MAGA lunatics from taking over, because Colorado, and the country, deserves better.
I am a retired U.S. Marine, a Purple Heart recipient, and father of four beautiful children. I’m proud to have been endorsed by Governor Jared Polis, VoteVets, state and national chapters of the Sierra Club, and the Colorado AFL-CIO.
Your help is crucial to defeat the toxic MAGA agenda that is ruining our country. Colorado wants proven leaders who will serve with integrity, and that’s exactly what we’re going to give them in this campaign.
Thank you so much for your support! Now let’s go win this.
Very Respectfully,
-Isaac "Ike" McCorkle
U.S. Marine Corps, retired
Purple Heart Recipient, Retired Officer, and Candidate for Congress
Ike McCorkle is a Purple Heart recipient, Marine Force Recon Veteran, and the 2022 Democratic nominee in Colorado's 4th Congressional District. Ike will fight for working class families and to restore the people's trust in American Government and leadership.
