Republican John Curtis is running for his second full term in the 3rd Congressional District this November, and Democrat Devin Thorpe is challenging him for his seat. Our radio partners spoke to both of them about the federal pandemic response, how to lower healthcare costs, and why they’re running for federal office. Remember – ballots were mailed on Tuesday to all registered voters in Grand County. Locals should see them in their mailboxes later this week or early next week. Plus, we continue our in-depth look at where water and fire intersect in the region.
