We’ve previously written that the race between Summers and Kerr for SD-22 will likely be Jeffco’s most engaging campaign this cycle – it pits two three term incumbents against each other in a newly competitive district.

Part of the story behind the SD-22 race is that Kerr and Summers currently represent similar constituencies in close geographical proximity to one another. That they’re sharing a stage at a town hall is testament to the fact that wherever Kerr goes, Summer is close behind – and vice versa.
