Harris wins Colorado

Vice President Harris has won Colorado, securing another victory in a safe blue state.

Harris was expected to win the Centennial State's 10 electoral votes. The western state has elected Democratic presidents since former President Obama in 2008. Before that, they had elected Republicans since 1968, with a break in 1992, when former President Clinton won.

The vice president won the state despite former President Trump visiting Colorado in October to elevate his top campaign issue of immigration. He held a rally in Aurora, which is a city of about 400,000 people that the former president helped launch into the spotlight by amplifying stories of Venezuelan gang activity there.

Although state and local officials, including Aurora's Republican mayor, had pushed back on the narrative that the city is overrun by migrants, Trump argued to a crowd of thousands that the Biden administration's immigration policies allowed for gangs to overrun cities.

President Biden won Colorado in 2020 by more than 55 percent of the vote, while Trump carried nearly 42 percent.

The margins were much closer in 2016, when former Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton garnered more than 47 percent of the vote in the state and Trump won more than 44 percent. When Obama flipped the state blue in 2008, he won with nearly 54 percent of the vote, compared to the late Sen. John McCain's (R-Ariz.) nearly 45 percent.
