Republican Delta County Commissioner Wayne Wolf entered Colorado’s U.S. Senate race on Monday, saying his campaign message would focus on fiscal conservatism.
The fifth generation rancher joins former U.S. Rep. Bob Schaffer in a GOP primary. The only Democrat currently runnning for the seat is Congressman Mark Udall of Eldorado Springs.
The seat is being vacated by U.S. Sen. Wayne Allard, who is retiring after two terms.
Wolf is a former teacher, and as commissioner, he founded the Delta County Meth Task Force.
