COLORADO SPRINGS — U.S. Rep. Doug Lamborn has decided to petition onto the Republican primary ballot.
Lamborn faces Jeff Crank and retired Air Force Maj. Gen. Bentley Rayburn in the race for the 5th Congressional District.
In a letter to friends and supporters, Lamborn said the El Paso County Republican Party was overwhelmed when six times the normal number of Republicans showed up for February caucuses.
The El Paso County Republican Party said, in a news release, that “there . . . were challenges that were overcome and we achieved success.”
