Pro-Israel Colorado AG Weiser Wins Democratic Governor Primary

Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser defeated U.S. Senator Michael Bennet in the state's Democratic primary for governor, giving pro-Israel voters a statewide counterpoint to the same-night Denver House upset by anti-Israel socialist Melat Kiros. Times of Israel and JPost, carrying JTA, identify Weiser as Jewish, a strong supporter of Israel and an outspoken voice against antisemitism; they note his mother was born at Buchenwald two days after liberation. Colorado Sun and CBS Colorado confirm AP projected Weiser's victory and that he now advances toward the November governor's race. The result shows pro-Israel Democrats can still win statewide when they organize beyond activist districts.
