Incumbent U.S. Rep. Jeff Hurd holds a commanding position in the June 30 Republican primary for Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District due to his status as the sitting member, strong fundraising, and re-endorsement from President Trump following Hope Scheppelman’s withdrawal from the race. The former state GOP vice chair suspended her campaign in March after Trump reversed his earlier support for her bid. This left former state Rep. Ron Hanks as the sole remaining challenger; he qualified at the state GOP assembly in April after a late filing effort but has limited time and resources to close the gap before primary voting. Trader consensus reflected in current pricing aligns with these dynamics, though a major late-breaking development such as a scandal or unusually low turnout could theoretically alter the outcome in the final two weeks.
