Incumbent Rep. Jeff Hurd commands 96% trader consensus in the CO-03 Republican primary due to his strong incumbency advantage, superior fundraising—nearly tenfold over challengers—and President Trump's March re-endorsement, which prompted Hope Scheppelman to withdraw from the ballot. Despite former state Rep. Ron Hanks' late April grassroots entry criticizing Hurd as insufficiently conservative on issues like tariffs and votes with Democrats, no public polling indicates a competitive race, and Hurd gained fresh backing from groups like American Conservation Coalition Action this week. Ahead of the June 30 primary, an upset would require Trump withdrawing support again, a major scandal hitting Hurd, or unexpectedly high MAGA turnout in this rural, Republican-leaning district.
