Gregory Carlson Announces Candidacy for Fremont County Commissioner FLORENCE, CO
August 26, 2025
Gregory Carlson, 36, today announced his campaign for Fremont County Commissioner District 2, running as a Republican with a platform focused on fiscal responsibility, improving the standard of living, and preserving the rural way of life. Carlson is committed to serving the community where he grew up.
"After prayerful consideration and the support of my family and friends, I am excited to announce my candidacy for County Commissioner," Carlson said. "Our local businesses, families, and seniors are facing increasing pressure from rising costs. I am bringing my experience as a math teacher for 14 years and running my two successful businesses to unite community leaders, make life more affordable, and bring prosperity to our community."
The Carlson family has been involved in the community for decades since moving to Fremont County in 1990. "Growing up on a farm taught me the meaning of hard work," Carlson said. Gregory graduated as the valedictorian from Cañon City High School in 2007 and graduated from CU Boulder, class of 2011, earning three Bachelor Degree's in math, economics, and political science. He later earned a Master's Degree in Secondary Education from the University of New Mexico and was a high school math teacher as part of Teach for America. He later returned to Fremont County to be a teacher at Pueblo Community College. He was Chairman of the Fremont County Republicans, and the President of the Colorado Association of Parliamentarians, and served on the Rules Committee of the Republican National Convention as a delegate for President Trump.
Gregory enjoys all the great things Fremont County has to offer including hiking, rafting, food, and scenic views. Carlson concluded, "Our founding fathers envisioned communities just like ours. If we stand united around the principles of the Constitution, we will continue to have a place that everyone is proud to call home."
