The Washington Post is reporting that Colorado Democrats have chosen state Attorney General Phil Weiser over Sen. Michael Bennet in the gubernatorial primary. It said the primary race served as a test of whether voters viewed Bennet’s experience in Washington as a liability. The newspaper also noted the election was a measure of which of the two Democratic candidates would more aggressively challenge President Donald Trump. The outcome reflected the party's "anti-D.C. tilt," according to the Post.
