The race between Lauren Boebert and Adam Frisch has gone down to the wire with the Democratic challenger now leading by just 64 votes.
By early on Thursday morning, 99 per cent of all votes had been reported for the US House seat in Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District, with the two candidates neck and neck with 50 per cent of the vote each.
Mr Frisch still holds a narrow lead, with 156,746 votes to Ms Boebert’s 156,682, though the race remains too close to call.
The tight race came as something of a surprise to both Republicans and Democrats – as well as pollsters – after the controversial, gun-toting congresswoman had been expected to enjoy a comfortable reelection to the seat she has occupied since 2020.
Meanwhile in the race for Senate, Democrat Michael Bennet edged out Republican Joe O’Dea with 54.9 per cent of the vote.
The governorship also went blue, with Democrat Jared Polis beating out Republican Heidi Ganahl.
