COLORADO, USA — Voters in Colorado’s 8th Congressional District have decided who will represent them in the U.S. House after a highly competitive race in their battleground district.

At around 9:30 p.m. Tuesday night, the Caraveo campaign said she will not appear at her campaign’s gathering. Her campaign made this statement:

“It’s early and this race is too close to call. Our team is closely monitoring votes as they come in and are cautiously optimistic about where we are.” said Kevin Porter, Caraveo for Congress communications director.

Caraveo, a pediatrician and former state lawmaker, ran unopposed in the Democratic primary. She beat Republican Barbara Kirkmeyer for the seat in 2022.

Chris Baum was also on the ballot under the Approval Voting Party, a single-issue party dedicated to implementing a system in the U.S. where voters can select one or more candidates on their ballot. It was recognized as a minor party in Colorado in 2019.

The 8th District includes large population hubs like Thornton, Commerce City and Greeley, marking it as a competitive district that encompasses both suburban and rural voters north and east of Denver.

Its active voter makeup is 25% registered Democrat, 22% Republican and 49% unaffiliated, according to May numbers from the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office.
