Nick Hinrichsen, the Democratic operations supervisor for Pueblo Transit, was elected Saturday to take over for departing Pueblo County Sen. Leroy Garcia.
“I’m honored to be your new State Senator,” Hinrichsen said in a statement posted to his Facebook page. “While I’m thrilled with today’s results, the work is far from finished.”
Hinrichsen, an Army veteran, received the most votes in both rounds of voting in Saturday’s special election in Pueblo and beat out Jason Muñoz for the seat. Newly elected Senate President Steve Fenberg, D-Boulder, previously endorsed Hinrichsen and offered him his congratulations over the weekend.
