My vote power

High

Election date

November 3, 2026 · General election

This seat represents District 3, not the whole district above. We can’t match an address to an area this small, so this race may not be on your ballot.

How do we calculate my vote power?

What goes into the rating: Representation: how much weight one vote carries here compared with a statewide vote — the smaller the district, the more each vote counts. Decisiveness: how likely this race is to be close, based on past results or current analyst ratings, plus the number of candidates.

Representation: High · 66 out of 100

This district is a small slice of its state, so each vote here carries much more weight than a vote in a statewide race. About 169,356 people live here.

Show the representation math

score = 50 + 50 × ln(state population ÷ this district's) ÷ ln(50,000) = 50 + 50 × ln(5,862,189 ÷ 169,356) ÷ ln(50,000) = 66.38, measured against a statewide vote in CO (grades: 66+ high, 55+ above average, 33+ average, otherwise low; a statewide race is the 50 baseline)
