YouTube Description
as posted by the channelDemocratic challenger Jason Crow has defeated Republican incumbent Rep. Mike Coffman to turn Colorado's 6th House District blue.
The district, which covers the eastern edge of the Denver metro area—including all of Aurora and parts of cities like Centennial, Highlands Ranch, Englewood, Parker and Brighton—has been inching more Democratic as the district's demographics have become more diverse in recent years.
This is the first time since the district was created in 1983 that a Democrat has won the seat.
Crow's victory was meant to be part of a "blue wave" trying to turn the U.S. House of Representatives over to Democratic control two years into President Donald Trump's presidency.
Crow campaigned on the idea that Coffman was a "yes man" to Trump, hammering the point that Coffman’s voting record sided with Trump 96 percent of the time. Crow, an attorney and ex-Army ranger, campaigned heavily on the idea that he would stand up to the president and do more to fix the ailing U.S. Department of Veteran's Affairs.
