Are you curious to know how the recent Colorado election turned out? Look no further, as we have a comprehensive list of results for you right here. And for those interested in the Denver-specific outcomes, we've got that covered as well.
While there are still a few races that are too close to call, let's take a closer look at how the candidates and ballot measures fared in this year's general election in Colorado. We'll start with the federal offices.
In the race for U.S. Representative District 4, we have Lauren Boebert facing off against Trisha Calvarese. Boebert, who is seeking her third term, seems to have a slight advantage in this district. Meanwhile, in District 8, Yadira Caraveo and Gabe Evans are in a tight race for Congress. It's anyone's game at this point. And in District 3, we have Adam Frisch and Jeff Hurd vying for the seat previously held by Boebert. It will be interesting to see who comes out on top in this competition.
Moving on to the Colorado ballot measures, let's take a look at Proposition 127, which deals with mountain lion and bobcat hunting. Unfortunately for supporters of this measure, the results show that it is not likely to pass. On the other hand, Amendment 79, which aims to protect abortion access, seems to have gained the support of Colorado voters. And Proposition KK, which proposes a tax on firearms and ammunition, has been overwhelmingly approved by voters.
Amendment J, which seeks to repeal a same-sex marriage ban, is also up for consideration in this election. The early voting results show that it is likely to be removed from the Colorado Constitution. However, it seems that voters are not in favor of Amendment 80, which would have enshrined school choice in the state constitution.
Now, let's take a closer look at the ballot measures specific to Denver, Denver Public Schools (DPS), Aurora, and the Regional Transportation District (RTD). Ballot Issue 2Q and 2R, which deal with a sales tax for affordable housing and Denver Health, respectively, have received mixed results so far. While the affordable housing tax is not likely to pass, the Denver Health sales tax seems to have the support of voters. On the RTD front, Ballot Issue 7A, which would allow the transit agency and two counties to keep tax revenue, is likely to be approved by voters.
In addition, Denver voters have also weighed in on a few initiated ordinances, including Ordinance 308, which proposes a fur ban, and a slaughterhouse ban. The results show that these initiatives are not likely to be approved. And finally, Ballot Issue 4A, which seeks a $1 billion bond for Denver, Aurora, and Cherry Creek schools, is likely to be approved by voters. And in Aurora, Ballot Question 3A, which proposes lifting the pit bull ban, is also leaning towards being passed.
Overall, it's been an eventful and closely contested election in Colorado, and we'll be sure to keep you updated as the final results come in.
