Republican Senate candidate Darryl Glenn is not the most accessible candidate in Colorado. Glenn easily (and surprisingly) won the June Republican Primary for the U.S. Senate nomination, but since then he’s been harder to track down than an Hispanic female supporter of Donald Trump.
Glenn likes to spend his campaign time speaking only in front of friendly audiences, which is why he has shunned most Colorado reporters and is rarely seen outside of highly-partisan right-wing events. With just a few weeks left until ballots drop in Colorado, Glenn is turning to Facebook to spread his anti-collaboration message.
Glenn is answering questions during a “live” town hall event on Facebook that was scheduled to begin at 3:00 today. Glenn has been in Washington D.C. this week, and he took some time during his travels to shoot an incredibly-awkward video promoting his Facebook outreach.
Here’s Glenn standing in front of The Capitol Hill Club (?) in Washington D.C., pretending not to be reading off of a script or teleprompter or something. Enjoy!
“I look forward to being your next Senator…[pause]…In Colorado.”

Questions from "Pastor Dave" are getting a lot of play. The rest of us, not so much.
The ineptitude is strong in this one.
Nothing on his official website.
Using Facebook instead of an official site.
Using a camera phone instead of a real camera for video.
Does he literally have a budget of $3000? Total.
"I'm here in Washington
observing the dysfunction of governmentgroveling for money from the GOP.”Latest poll on RC says Bennet up by 13.
It's that close?
What puzzles me is the gap between Bennet's lead and HRC's. His is bigger. I'm trying to picture what kind of voter would vote for Bennet and Trump.
I suspect a significant part of the difference is third party candidates. There are probably a few percentage points of the electorate that are voting for Bennet and Stein or Bennet and Johnson.
Glenn continues to find ways to talk to those he already knows and who follow him. His webpage provides his "Events" for the next couple of weeks:
Sep 24 Clear Creek County Republicans Election Rally
Sep 28 US-South Asian Chamber of Commerce Meeting
Sep 30 Rocky Vista University Military Appreciation Event
Oct 01 Pikes Peak Firearms Coalition Dinner
Oct 05 Arapaho County Republican Breakfast Club
For an underdog who emerged by going many miles and meeting political activists, who now has a limited budget for staff and advertising, he certainly doesn't seem to be working his strengths. He even stayed active as a El Paso County Commissioner.
Right….like there's real risk that the Pikes Peak Firearms Coalition is going to support Bennet. (Although I suppose Lilly Tang Williams might be a viable alternative to Glenn.)
