Colorado
The Senate race has attracted attention, but in the end incumbent Michael Bennet (D) has a clear inside track for re-election, while Gov. Jared Polis (D) is a safe bet to win a second term.
The new 8th Congressional District that Colorado earned in national reapportionment was drawn as a 50/50 seat. Polling and early voting suggests that state Sen. Barbara Kirkmeyer (R-Weld County) has a slight advantage over state Rep. Yadira Caraveo (D-Eastlake). In the open 7th CD from which Rep. Ed Perlmutter (D-Arvada) is retiring, state Sen. Brittany Pettersen (D-Lakewood) appears as the favorite over military veteran Erik Aadland (R).
