DENVER — While Democrats continue to openly pump millions into the 2022 Republican primary races, there is also a large amount of money being spent by vague organizations and unidentified people — most recently in the Congressional District 7 race — hoping to confuse voters at the ballot box next week.
The goal behind the Democrats and others’ meddling, is the dark money groups hope to influence frustrated GOP primary voters into actually voting for the candidates least likely to win on the November ballot.
Strategists say Democrats are pushing the far-right conservatives in the primary, believing they are too extreme to beat their Democrat opponent in the general election, which is expected to see a complete flip of both the House and the Senate in D.C.
“It is one thing to cross party lines to promote someone you regard as a “less evil” candidate,” says Ari Armstrong in an opinion piece in Complete Colorado. “It is quite another to actively aid the other party’s weaker candidate during the primaries to try to beat that party in the general.”
Armstrong is the author of several books about classical liberalism.
