Anchored in the Denver metro, this district's urban density and college-educated demographic profile have pushed presidential margins consistently past 15 points in recent cycles, making it one of Colorado's more reliably lopsided legislative seats.

The 2008 election was the turning point, when the Democratic candidate carried the district by nine points. The 2024 margin was nineteen points, in line with the district's new direction.

The demographics suggest why. A population of 38,158, a 79% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $110,559 situate the district in the broader realignment patterns of recent cycles.
