GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo.— Brian Vande Krol, Republican candidate for House District 35, earned more stripes within the Colorado GOP’s Trailblazers Program this week. Party chairman Ryan Call reported Vande Krol met the necessary campaign benchmarks to rank as a Contender candidate.
“We’re excited about Brian,” Call said. “He’s a hard worker, a proven job creator and we know he can do great things for the families and business owners of Adams County as a member of the state Legislature.”
With just over 40 days left until the November election, Vande Krol ranks with 14 other candidates for the state Legislature that have been recognized by the Colorado GOP’s Trailblazers Program.
The Trailblazers Program was created earlier this year to emulate the National Republican Congressional Committee’s successful Young Guns Program. The program assists Republican legislative candidates in running smart and efficient campaigns by meeting fundamental campaign goals that help them carve a path to victory in November’s election. There are three tiers to success within the program: On the Radar, Contender and Trailblazer.
