In the 2026 election, Colorado voters will choose one U.S. Senator and all eight members of the U.S. House of Representatives.

These officials serve in the U.S. Congress, where they vote on federal spending, foreign aid, and major national policy decisions. That includes decisions about U.S. funding for Israel and broader policy related to the genocide in Gaza.

Because members of Congress directly influence how U.S. money is allocated and what positions the country takes internationally, these elections are of utmost importance and will determine who will represent Colorado in debates that affect both domestic priorities and global conflicts.

The 2026 election cycle in Colorado will be one of the most important in recent memory because of the sheer number of offices on the ballot. Voters will elect a new Governor, choose a U.S. Senator, and decide all eight of Colorado’s congressional seats, shaping the state’s leadership in both Denver and Washington.

At the state level, every seat in the Colorado House and a significant portion of the State Senate will be up for election, along with other statewide offices that directly affect how laws are enforced, elections are administered, and public priorities are set. With so many leadership decisions happening at once, the 2026 elections will have lasting consequences for Colorado’s political direction and civic life.

          The primary election in Colorado will be held on June 30, 2026

          The general election will be on November 3, 2026. 

Participating in both is essential to fully exercising the right to vote and influencing who leads and represents Colorado at the state and national level.
