Colorado Congressional Candidate Endorsed by Big Lie Proponent Ted Nugent

Erik Aadland gets leg up in CO-07 Republican primary’s race to the right

The Republicans of Colorado’s 7th Congressional primary are not letting up in the race to claim the mantle of extremism. Previously, self-funding candidate Tim Reichert made waves after claiming abortion is a “human sacrifice at the altar of Baal.” Now, Erik Aadland, Reichert’s primary opponent, is touting the endorsement of singer-turned-Radical-Right-activist Ted Nugent.

Among Nugent’s greatest hits:

  • Claiming the 2020 presidential election was stolen from Donald Trump – a fraudulent claim that led to a violent insurrection against our government;

  • Calling for Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama to be hanged for treason;

  • Stating he wants to give Kyle Rittenhouse, who fatally shot two people, “a lifetime supply of ammunition”

Does Erik Aadland support the violent views of his latest endorser?

DCCC Spokesperson Maddy Mundy
“The Republicans of CO-07 are locked in a desperate race to the right, and leaving Colorado families behind in the process. As Tim Reichert remains fixated on ripping women’s constitutional rights away and Erik Aadland embraces the support of violent extremists, one thing is clear: the radical Republicans running to represent Colorado’s 7th are totally out of step with the needs of this district.”
