Former President George W. Bush is expected to attend an upcoming fundraising event for Joe O’Dea, the Republican Senate candidate in Colorado, in mid-October.
Bush’s rare appearance on the campaign trail comes after O’Dea posted big numbers in the recent July-September quarter, reporting $3 million in fundraising. Of the funds, $1 million included a personal loan from O'Dea.
Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, is also expected to attend O’Dea’s upcoming Colorado fundraiser.
In a recent appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” O’Dea said that he would not support former President Donald J. Trump if he chooses to run again in 2024.
Bush has also held fundraisers this election cycle for Gov. Brian Kemp, R-Ga., and Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., both Republicans who have distanced themselves from Trump in the past and faced Trump-backed primary challengers this year.
