Colorado is 25% Democrat, 23% Republican, and 52% none of the above. Navy veteran, engineer, and first-time candidate Bob Chew joins Paul Rieckhoff for the Meet the Independent Candidate series to talk about his run against John Hickenlooper, the $8 trillion debt bomb neither party will touch, why he left the Republican Party a year ago, how the Forward Party got him on the ballot, and why he's writing checks to fellow independent veterans like Todd Achilles, Brian Bengs, and Dan Osborn as this movement breaks out in 2026.

Independent Veterans of America announced two new endorsements last week.
One was Matt Baker in Virginia's 2nd Congressional District. Baker is a Marine Corps veteran running on a direct argument: a member who owes their seat to party money stops answering to the people. Hampton Roads, against an incumbent party structure.
The second was Steve Woll for Virginia's 3rd Congressional District. Woll is a Navy veteran, scientist and businessman who came to Virginia with the Navy 25 years ago and stayed. He is running for a seat that has not changed hands since 1993.
