President Trump endorses Stapleton

With less than a month away from election day, Republican gubernatorial candidate Walker Stapleton just received a key endorsement.

President Trump says he supports the current State Treasurer.

The president tweeted Wednesday morning “Walker Stapleton is running as the highly respected Republican Candidate for Governor of the Great State of Colorado. His credentials and talents are impeccable. He has my complete and total Endorsement!”

In a survey commissioned by Healthier Colorado, Stapleton’s opponent, Democratic Congressman Jared Polis of Boulder, has a 7-point lead in the race.

The poll has Stapleton’s support at 40 percent. 11-percent of voters are still undecided.

Polis and Stapleton are scheduled to debate each other Saturday night in Colorado Springs.
