Party: Unaffiliated

Incumbent: No

Political Office: None

Submitted Biography:  "Colorado native born in Greeley. Retired. During COVID I began researching the inconsistencies I was hearing from various news outlets (CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, FOX). I found that the most reliable and seemingly balanced news outlet was FOX. I came to this conclusion by spending hours on the internet verifying the reported stories and the "facts" the stories were supposed to be base upon. I continue this process for how and what my representatives were voting. I started reading the bills and extracting the details from the pdf downloads. I then would e-mail my representatives asking them why they voted as they did on the bill. Quite often I did not receive a response and when I was provided a response I found the response to be lacking in relative content. I concluded that if I'm going to complain on how these representatives are going their job then I should be willing to put my name on the ballot."

Key Messages

To read this candidate's full survey responses, click here.

---

I think voters need to be willing to fire their representatives when they aren't doing their job and Jason Crow needs to be fired. Since assuming office in 2018 he has demonstrated that he is a partisan politician who does not address the issues that affects the majority of his constituents, like the border, government spending and crime. He has voted for every major spending bill since coming into office and thus is more responsible for the country's inflation crisis than either the Trump or Biden Administrations.

---

Election interference. I believe one of the biggest problems we have is how campaigns are financed. People, corporations, NGOs, PACs and political parties provide money to a candidate's campaign. Thus the candidate will woe their party, vote, and/or make promises that allows them the opportunity to acquire more funding. That funding provides them name recognition and increases their chance to be elected. This ultimately removes the candidate from needing to address the issues of his constituents. Thus, I believe that if you can't legally vote for a candidate then you should not be able to provide funding for that candidate's campaign. As of Sep. 2024 only 43% of Jason Crow's campaign moneys came from Colorado.

---

The legislative process is not focused on providing government funding. Many "feel good" bills and resolutions are passed each year as the house refuses to focus on addressing the 12 components of government funding. And each year we end up with continuing resolutions and an omnibus funding bill. This process directly leads to excessive government spending and an increases the national debt. A debt that has to be serviced (paid), which results in less of our tax money being available to address funding needs.

A debt that has to be serviced (paid), which results in less of our tax money being available to address funding needs.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

John Fabbricatore (R)

Border security is national security. Absolute enforcement of immigration laws and control access to our borders. We must stop drug and human trafficking and dismantle transnational criminal organizations that profit off of poisoning and harming our citizens. We need to cut government excess and restructure federal agencies that are not working for the people. Term limits for all political positions must be passed.

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

We must start to return our government to its fundamental principles. A government of the people, by the people, for the people, before our government and the principles it was founded on perish. Currently government appears to service or champion only political parties, special interests and specific groups of people, leaving the rest of the people paying their bills. It also appears some political parties work very hard to find and/or manufacture groups of people that they claim are in need of being championed.

Is there a book, essay, film, or something else you would recommend to someone who wants to understand your political philosophy?

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

We all need a wake-up call regarding politics and some of our history. A good start would be to read "The Real Lincoln", by Thomas DiLorenzo who is an economics professor.

What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

Integrity and honesty. If a member has been found to have lied and/or made false claims there must be consequences. At a minimum that member should be removed from and prevented from severing on any committee for the duration of their term.

What qualities do you possess that you believe would make you a successful officeholder?

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

I believe in the truth and facts. And I'm willing to work to seek out the truth and the facts so my constituents can be better informed when they want and need to be regarding national legislation and issues.

What do you believe are the core responsibilities for someone elected to this office?

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

They must not vote for anything that comes up unless they have been allowed to read in understand the document. In addition they need to provide to their constituents the critical details of the document and how and why they addressed the document.

What is the first historical event that happened in your lifetime that you remember? How old were you at the time?

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

I had and elementary school teacher (Fremont Elementary in Arvada, CO) who told us that American ideal is based on one single concept; "your rights end at the tip of our nose". This has stuck with me for a very long time, and it took me a very long time to fully understand is a fundamental truth that very few people recognize or are willing to accept.

What was your very first job? How long did you have it?

John Fabbricatore (R)

United States Air Force 4 years.

What qualities does the U.S. House of Representatives possess that makes it unique as an institution?

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

Representative should represent a unique group of people with unique issues and needs. Those people should be able to elect their representative without any interference from the outside. Meaning, that no person or entity should provide funding for a candidate unless they can legally vote for that candidate. To often outside interests provide funding in the hopes that they will get another vote for a global interests.

Do you believe that it's beneficial for representatives to have previous experience in government or politics?

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

No

What do you perceive to be the United States’ greatest challenges as a nation over the next decade?

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

The functional education of our youth, spending and national identity.

Do you believe that two years is the right term length for representatives?

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

Yes, and the number of terms should be limited to no more than 6.

What are your thoughts on term limits?

John Fabbricatore (R)

There should be term limits. 18 years in the senate and 10 years in the house.

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

Term limits must be required for all legislative branches. Two terms for the senate and 6 terms for the house.

Is there a particular representative, past or present, whom you want to model yourself after?

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

No

Both sitting representatives and candidates for office hear many personal stories from the residents of their district. Is there a story that you’ve heard that you found particularly touching, memorable, or impactful?

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

No. To often there is to much attention on a personal story. This degrades one's perspective on the needs of the majority the districts residents and how to address them.

Do you believe that compromise is necessary or desirable for policymaking?

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

Yes, but it needs to occur within each of the 12 spending components. NOT at the overall spending level.

The Constitution says that all bills for raising revenue must originate in the House. What role would this power play in your priorities if elected?

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

This must become the critical and primary focus of the house. And if the house can't deliver on each of the 12 components of spending in a timely manor there should be consequences. Maybe docking their pay for every day they are late would be a good start.

How should the U.S. House use its investigative powers?

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

The U.S. House should always be providing oversight and investigate as required. However, they must focus on and deliver the budget.

What organizations or individuals have endorsed your campaign?

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

Only those friends of mine who have been willing to discuss politics and national issue. Its unfortunate many people don't want to or are afraid discuss issues.

What committees interest you?

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

None

What are your views on financial transparency and government accountability?

Brad Nickle (Unaffiliated)

Financial transparency and government accountability are critical. Bills should not be allowed to have manipulative names and ballot issues must be clear and concise. To often both of these things occur which miss-leads voters and a representative constituents. Local news must do a much better job of tracking, monitoring and reporting on legislative actions at all levels of government.

General election race ratings

See also: Race rating definitions and methods

Ballotpedia provides race ratings from four outlets: The Cook Political Report, Inside Elections, Sabato's Crystal Ball, and DDHQ/The Hill. Each race rating indicates if one party is perceived to have an advantage in the race and, if so, the degree of advantage:

• Safe and Solid ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge and the race is not competitive.
• Likely ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge, but an upset is possible.
• Lean ratings indicate that one party has a small edge, but the race is competitive.
• Toss-up ratings indicate that neither party has an advantage.

Race ratings are informed by a number of factors, including polling, candidate quality, and election result history in the race's district or state.

Post-filing deadline analysis

The following analysis covers all U.S. House districts up for election in Colorado in 2024. Information below was calculated on May 2, 2024, and may differ from information shown in the table above due to candidate replacements and withdrawals after that time.

Thirty-two candidates ran for Colorado’s eight U.S. House districts, including 12 Democrats and 20 Republicans. That’s 4.00 candidates per district, more than in the previous three election cycles. There were 3.75 candidates per district in 2022, 2.28 candidates per district in 2020 and 3.43 in 2018.

The number of candidates who ran for the U.S. House in Colorado in 2024 is also higher than any other year this decade.

The 3rd and 5th Congressional Districts were open, meaning no incumbents ran in those districts.

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-3rd) ran for the 4th Congressional District, which Ken Buck held before he resigned from Congress on March 22, 2024. Rep. Doug Lamborn (R-5th) did not run for re-election because he retired from public office.

Nine candidates—three Democrats and six Republicans—ran for the 4th Congressional District, the most candidates who ran for a seat in Colorado in 2024.

Seven primaries—three Democratic and four Republican—were contested in 2024. That’s less than the eight contested primaries in 2022 but more than the two contested primaries in 2020.

Two incumbents—Reps. Diana DeGette (D-1st) and Boebert—were in contested primaries in 2024. That's less than the four incumbents in contested primaries in 2022 but more than the one incumbent in a contested primary in 2020.

Candidates filed to run in the Republican and Democratic primaries in all eight districts, meaning no seats were guaranteed to either party.

Partisan Voter Index
