The long-awaited Blue Wave hit the country last night as Mid Term Elections 2026 drew the biggest crowd of voters ever. The Democrats won both the House of Representatives and the Senate majority. The country spoke loud and clear against the Trump Administration as they sought a change in politics, perhaps an end to the war and ending high gas and grocery prices, tariffs, raising the minimum wage, and providing a health care plan for all Americans and more.
On the Colorado landscape, the results were–
Senator John Hickenlooper (Democrat) won reelection to a second term in Colorado’s U.S. Senate race, defeating state Senator Mark Baisley (Republican) and third-party candidate Bob Chew. The people of Colorado determined loud and clear that the experience of Senator John Hickenlooper was what drove their deciding vote. Sen. Hickenlooper won with a strong 60.03 percent of the vote.
Former Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser decisively defeated Victor Marx and multiple 3rd party candidates, getting 60.72 percent of the vote. Congratulations to Phil Weiser and Lesley Dahlkemper as Colorado’s next Governor/Lieutenant Governor.
