Colorado Democratic Party Concludes 2026 State Assembly, Announces Results

DENVER - The Colorado Democratic Party today concluded its 2026 State Assembly in Pueblo, marking the party's first in-person State Assembly since 2018 and bringing together nearly more than 1,600 delegates, candidates and activists from across the state.

The assembly capped off a high-turnout caucus and assembly process that drew nearly 13,000 participants statewide - nearly doubling participation compared to recent cycles - and featured a significantly younger and more representative group of delegates. Preliminary data shows the share of delegates under 30 more than tripled compared to 2022, with nearly one in four under the age of 40.

Held in Pueblo, the heart of Colorado's labor movement, the State Assembly plays a critical role in the Democratic nominating process, where delegates determine which candidates advance to the primary ballot. Candidates who receive at least 30% of the vote earn ballot access.

"Colorado Democrats showed up in a big way," said Colorado Democratic Party Chair Shad Murib. "We're seeing more energy, more participation and a new generation stepping up to lead. From Pueblo to every corner of the state, Democrats are united and ready to win in November."

Below are the unofficial results from the 2026 State Assembly. Candidates who received 30% or more of the vote have earned access to the Democratic Primary Ballot. The Party platform was also adopted.
