HUGO, Colo. — A vacancy committee on Thursday selected the Republican nominee to replace former Congressman Ken Buck in Colorado’s 4th Congressional District.

“It's life. I'm just like everybody else,” Lopez said to Denver7 in a 2022 interview. “Have I made mistakes? Sure I have. Have I learned from them? Of course, I have. You know, these are things that make character, make people better.” “When it comes to rape and incest, look, those are traumatic things. I'm not saying that we can't be compassionate when those types of things happen,” said Lopez in 2022. “But we have laws against those already. We need to enforce those laws. And this is where the pregnancy resource centers come in, you know, where they can help a female decide, you know, what's moving forward.

Murib called Lopez “a scandal-ridden politician” and said his “hyper-political views fly in the face of rural values.” Lopez said if he wins the special election, he intends to be a “placeholder” member of Congress and has no interest in serving a full term of his own.
