Colorado Senate Candidate To Speak At Republican National Convention

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (CBS) - The Republican National Committee has released a partial list of speakers for this year's convention.

Among them is Darryl Glenn, the conservative candidate from Colorado Springs challenging incumbent Democrat Michael Bennet for the U.S. Senate.

Glenn is a strong supporter of presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.

CBS4 asked the Glenn campaign for a comment and received this emailed reply:

During my campaign, I've focused on the need for decisive leadership and unifying as a country, and now I'm thrilled to have the opportunity to take my message to Cleveland and address the Republican National Convention.

For the past year, I've been traveling the State of Colorado, hearing firsthand from Coloradans about the issues they face. These issues: national security, jobs, economy will be on the table at the RNC, and I look forward to meeting with other Republican leaders in Cleveland to discuss how Colorado can lead in so many of these critical areas.

While the committee released the names of the speakers, it has not yet released a full schedule for them. Glenn's representatives told CBS4 he will speak on Monday.
