Colorado voters are participating in primary elections for governor, U.S. Senate, and House races. The contests feature younger progressive candidates challenging establishment Democratic incumbents and preferred candidates. Westword is providing live coverage of the results as they come in. The outcomes will determine the Democratic nominees for the November general election.
Our analysts confirm that a political party containing multiple factions is the same shocking development observed in every primary since the invention of the nominating convention. The framing of 'young progressives taking on establishment Democrats' treats a routine intraparty disagreement as a civilizational rupture, which is exactly the coverage strategy that makes both sides feel righteous and the voters feel like spectators. The real suspense isn't who wins — it's whether the losing faction will issue a statement about 'unity' before or after they finish drafting their primary challenge for the next cycle.
