Colorado Democrats Congratulate Eileen Laubacher on Election to Congress

DENVER - The Colorado Democratic Party congratulates Eileen Laubacher on her election to represent Colorado's 4th Congressional District.

A retired Navy rear admiral, Laubacher spent 34 years serving her country before answering the call to run for Congress. She and her husband raised five children in Colorado, and her campaign focused on the costs facing families and the need for a government that does its job. She proposed strengthening rural hospitals, supporting farmers and ranchers, and holding Washington accountable to the people it serves. Laubacher's campaign spoke to voters across the political spectrum, inspiring voters of all backgrounds and zip codes to believe in a better type of representation in Washington.

"This is a meaningful win for so many people in this district ready for results over politics. Representative-elect Laubacher has spent her life in the military taking solemn responsibility for other people's safety and well-being and that's exactly how she'll approach her service in Congress," said Colorado Democratic Party Chair Shad Murib. "Laubacher brought that seriousness to this campaign, listening to communities across the district and offering practical plans to help them. Voters have chosen a representative who understands that public service comes with obligations. We're proud to congratulate her and celebrate what this victory means for the 4th District."

Colorado Democrats ran a coordinated campaign alongside Representative-elect Laubacher's phenomenal campaign for Congress. We knocked on tens of thousands of doors and made tens of thousands of calls, directed a voter protection operation, delivered a paid media operation and visited the district mobilizing voters as part of CDP's "Our Future. Our Colorado." bus tour. The local, state, and national Parties were aligned around these efforts and developed infrastructure alongside talented county leaders that stands ready to grow beyond this election.
