Kelsey
Heikkinenfor Governor of Colorado

I'm fed up with politicians' empty promises. I'm running as an unaffiliated write-in candidate to fight the problems Coloradans actually live with — drugs, elder abuse, gang violence, and the cost of staying in the state we love.

The Plan

A Colorado that works for the people who live here.

Four priorities. Real proposals. No insider games.

01

Safer Communities

Community policing, recovery-first response to addiction, and accountability for violent crime in Pueblo and across Colorado.

02

Protect Our Elders

Fully fund Adult Protective Services to stop abuse — without taking away seniors' rights or independence.

03

Affordable Colorado

Tackle housing costs, lower property tax burden, and protect water for farms, families, and the next generation.

04

Help Animals

State funding for shelters and stray-pet programs, so no Colorado animal is left behind.

"I'm not a politician. I'm a Coloradan who's tired of watching our neighborhoods, our seniors, and our animals get pushed aside. On November 3rd, write me in — and let's take Colorado back."
