GOP seeking candidates to serve Boulder County
"LONGMONT -- The field of Republicans challenging Boulder County's three incumbent Democratic county commissioners' election bids has narrowed to one GOP candidate, for the time being.
County Republican chairwoman Marty Neilson said Ward-area resident Dean Thedos has decided against running for the District 1 seat on the Board of County Commissioners.
Party members attending the March 8 Boulder County Republican Assembly had designated Thedos, director of product development for Longmont-based Cornerstone Homes, Inc., to be their candidate in this year's contest with incumbent Democratic Commissioner Will Toor of Boulder."

"Still in the hunt for a commissioner's seat, however, is Amy Barnes Frey, a Louisville Republican running against incumbent District 3 Democratic Commissioner Cindy Domenico of Lafayette.
Barnes Frey told people attending a Wednesday Boulder County Republican Breakfast at Longmont's IHOP Restaurant that she's been doing her campaign homework by attending recent meetings at the Courthouse and reviewing archived videos of past commissioners' meetings.
Barnes Frey, owner of a Boulder business that designs devices for video and audio professionals, said that "right now," at least, her campaign slogan is: "Take Back Charge of Your County Government."
