Democrat Joe Neguse, son of African immigrants, runs for secretary of state
Secretary of state candidate Joe Neguse can count on cheers when he tells
Democrats, "I'm the guy running to clean up Scott Gessler's mess."
Those are the first words in a campaign video that will be played at the
Colorado Democratic Party assembly in Denver Saturday where he will be
officially nominated for the job. Neguse is expected to face Republican
Wayne Williams, the El Paso County clerk and recorder, in November.
Williams will be nominated at the Colorado Republican Party assembly in
Boulder on Saturday.
The video looks at Neguse's life -- he's the son of African immigrants who
moved to this country in the early 1980s. Neguse also praised by Pueblo
Clerk Bo Ortiz and state Sen. Pat Steadman. The word 'integrity is used at
least three times.
Gessler opted against a second term, and is instead running for governor.
His tenure at the secretary of state's office has been rocky at times, but
he argues he's just doing his job and the left doesn't like it.
