Campaign themes
2016
Morse issued the following statement regarding his bid for office:
| “ | Returning Northern Colorado to a fairly represented congressional district is reliant upon our need to have a representative in Congress who works on behalf of the citizens in his district, not on behalf of his own interests. My goal as your congressman would be to bring hope and potential back to the 2nd Congressional district by creating a new era of innovation in our corner of Colorado.
My desire to run for office comes from the same frustration you feel in your heart when you feel unvalued, unheard, and disadvantaged by our elected leaders. My goal is to change this and to show how true servant leadership can yield amazing results in Northern Colorado [8] |
