The 2024 election is reaching a crucial moment in Colorado.
Why it matters: The primary elections on June 25 will decide dozens of contests for Congress and the state Legislature in districts where one party is dominant.
State of play: Republicans are selecting nominees for four congressional races, including the high-profile 4th District where Rep. Lauren Boebert moved to run.
- Democrats are closely watching a pair of legislative races in Denver where progressive lawmakers are facing challenges from establishment-backed rivals.
How to vote

- Unaffiliated voters will receive both major party ballots and can participate in either primary, but not both.
- The primary that you vote in is a public record, but not whom you supported.
Zoom in: Voters who live in Congressional District 4 will be asked to select an interim representative to fill the vacant seat until Jan. 3 in the wake of former Republican Rep. Ken Buck's early resignation.
