Trump loses ground among Latinos in competitive Colorado district

State of play: 61% of respondents in the district said they disapprove of Trump, while 37% said they approve, according to the 2026 Colorado Latino Policy Agenda survey.

• That's a 13-point jump from 2025 in the share of Latino voters in the district who disapprove of Trump, the Colorado Sun reports.

What they're saying: Axios Denver has reached out to Evans' campaign for a response.

Between the lines: Evans faces Democrat Manny Rutinel for the suburban Denver seat, which House Democrats see as a potential pickup in their bid to retake the majority.
