WINDSOR - Colorado 4th Congressional Democratic Candidate John Padora filed his 2023 End of Year Report with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) on Wednesday, January 31, 2024.

Padora launched his campaign in May 2023, challenging five-term Republican Ken Buck, who then retired in November. As controversy and scandal-plagued Republican Lauren Boebert dropped out her Colorado 3rd District Race and carpetbagged over to the 4th District Republican Primary, this race has been anything but predictable, but Padora remains committed to running an honest and honorable campaign for the people of CD-4.

“I am proud to say that I have submitted my End of Year Report to the FEC and that it is accurate, timely and transparent. As a candidate for public office, I take reporting very seriously and I pledge to the voters of Colorado’s 4th Congressional District that I will continue to respect them and not obfuscate nor ever misrepresent my campaign’s financial standing,” states Padora.

He continues, “but let’s be clear: people vote, not dollars. It's not just about the money. It's the engagement with the people and the understanding of the needs of Coloradans in District 4 that matters most. While we didn't have a headstart with carry over funds from previous campaigns, we're on track to meet our goals for the first quarter of 2024.”

John Padora 2023 FEC Financial Summary

Padora has built his campaign for the people, the same people who have been struggling with the same issues that Congress hasn't been able to solve for years: water rights, reliable broadband in rural regions, and failing infrastructure.

John Padora’s platform continues to prioritize the livelihood of working class families through tax reform, housing availability reform, and expanding access to affordable health care. Padora believes in the individual’s right to bodily autonomy and vows to nationally codify a woman’s right to choose and her access to reproductive healthcare.

As a resident of Colorado’s Fourth District, he also understands the issues facing rural America and plans to support bills that resuscitate American manufacturing, redirect federal subsidies from corporate agriculture to small farmers and ranchers, and rebuild clean water infrastructure throughout the state.
