Colorado GOP Statehouse Candidate Openly Supports QAnon Conspiracies
A local Colorado Republican leader has publicly declared both her intention to run for the statehouse and her belief in the QAnon conspiracy theory.
Jefferson County resident Mary Lynn “Dede” Wagner announced her intent to run for House District 25 last month. Her statements in support of QAnon and other conspiracies began much earlier.
Wagner, who leads the Mountain Republicans Club in Evergreen, describes herself as a “Christian, Constitutional Conservative.” A retired public school teacher who taught for 27 years, this is her second time running for the Colorado legislature. She was the Republican nominee for House District 23 in 2008, a campaign she lost to Democrat Gwen Green.
Wagner declared her belief in QAnon, which Trump’s FBI considered a domestic terror threat, on Jan. 6, just hours before QAnon believers, Trump supporters, and militia members stormed the U.S. Capitol.
“We – PRESIDENT TRUMP, Q, and us-are the champions, my friend,” wrote Wagner on Facebook. “And we’ll keep fighting ’til the end. We are the champions! We are the champions! No time for losers-cheating Bidens! “Cause we are the champions of this election!!! The Lord rewards the righteous!”
