At the assemblies, the candidates were nominated by their friends, families and/or constituents, and often had groups of supporters with them on the stage.  While most of the delegates had decided prior to the assembly which candidate they would support, sometimes that decision was verified as much by who was standing with the candidates as by the speeches they gave.

In order to have their name on the primary ballot for the GOP, candidates needed to receive at least 30% of the votes cast by the delegates for their particular race.  The results of the elections held at the Assemblies are as follows, and in bold are the people that will be on the primary ballots for the Republican Party in June.

Candidate for United States Representative to Colorado's 2nd Congressional District:

George Leing (74% of the vote)
(Bob Comer and Larry Sarner fell short of the 30% necessary to get on the ballot.)

Candidates for United States Representative to Colorado's 4th Congressional District:

Scott Renfroe (53.8%)
Ken Buck (45.98%)
Steve Laffey (petitioned on)
Barbra Kirkmeyer (petitioned on) 

Candidate for United States Senate

Cory Gardner (73.62%)
(Senate candidates Randy Baumgardner (23.8%) and Tom Janich (2.58%) fell short of the 30% necessary to get on the ballot.)

Candidates for Governor of Colorado

Mike Kopp (33.6%)
Scott Gessler (33.11%)
Bob Beauprez (petitioned on)
Tom Tancredo (petitioned on)
(Governor candidates Greg Brophy (18.9%), Steve House (12.81%), and Roni Bell Sylvester (1.59%) fell short of the 30% necessary to get on the ballot.)

Candidates for Colorado Attorney General

Cynthia Coffman (69%)
Mark Waller (30.47 %)

It was exciting to be surrounded by so many wonderful Republican Patriots from all over the state and to hear from such qualified candidates for all positions.  Naturally, not all candidates were able to be elected to the primary ballot, but there were no losers this weekend.  Some have had their paths changed, and their newly enriched leadership skills will be used in another capacity.  We all will be the richer if we act upon the the concerns and conclusions brought forth by all of the candidates.  Let's Roll!
