Don Wilson is a former state representative from Monument, Colorado. A Republican, Wilson represented Colorado House of Representatives District 20, which includes a portion of unincorporated El Paso County and the communities of Air Force Academy, Black Forest, Gleneagle, Monument, Palmer Lake, and Woodmoor.[1] Previously, Wilson served as the mayor of Monument, Colorado, and before that he served on the town's board of trustees. He is originally from Littleton, Colorado.[2]
Following the resignation of former district 19 state representative Tim Geitner on October 7, 2022, a vacancy committee met to select a replacement to fill out his term. However, the committee was unable to achieve a quorum before the 30-day deadline. In such cases, the governor is then required to appoint someone to fill out the term. Governor Jared Polis selected Wilson on November 9, 2022.[3]
