Northern Colorado Republican Governor Candidate Forum

 The Northern Colorado Republican Governor Candidate Forum, sponsored by the Northern Colorado Legislative Wrap-Up, is your chance to hear directly from Republican candidates running for governor in 2026. This forum-style event is designed to give voters a clear look at each candidate’s priorities, ideas, and vision for Colorado’s future. The forum will be moderated by Kim Monson and live streamed for those unable to attend in person, ensuring that every voter has access to this critical conversation. An official straw poll will be conducted following the forum, giving the public a unique way to weigh in.

Come early to take part in the pre-event meet-and-greet, where you’ll have the opportunity to meet with the Republican governor candidates, connect with state house and senate representatives and candidates, and learn about local Northern Colorado organizations. This is a one-of-a-kind chance to talk face-to-face with the people shaping the future of Colorado while building connections across the community.

With the 2026 election year quickly approaching, this forum is an important opportunity for voters to be informed, engaged, and involved in the direction of Colorado. Whether you want to hear firsthand from the governor candidates, meet other leaders on the ballot, or connect with organizations working at the local level, this event is built to empower voters and strengthen the civic conversation in Northern Colorado and beyond.
