Christy Peterson
Peterson’s platform answers in one line: "Yes to the protection, defense & alliance with Israel", fifth in a yes-list between veterans and fiscal spending. Nothing located reaches U.S. weapons transfers, aid packages or conditions, and nothing located has her addressing U.S. aid to Palestinians.
Peterson is the Republican nominee in Colorado’s 1st District (Denver, where no Republican has won since the early 1970s), a construction-company office manager who was unopposed for the nomination.
Her platform page carries her whole Israel record: a yes-list whose fifth line reads "Yes to the protection, defense & alliance with Israel". It names no transfer, package, or condition, and this card does not supply one. The line sits between "Yes to protecting & serving our Veterans" and "Yes to conservative fiscal spending", and that placement is the honest measure of its depth.
Her profile coverage, Denverite and Colorado Politics, runs on public safety, taxes and her long-shot race against the Democratic nominee, and does not reach these questions.
