First In Line: Colorado

Not every corner of Colorado is blue. In 2024, Democrats didn't contest five state legislative districts, leaving Republicans to run without opposition or accountability.

In 2026, two people decided to change that.

They filed to run in districts Democrats didn't contest in 2024. First In Line is making sure they don't do it alone.

First In Line funds the candidates doing the hardest work in the hardest places. We start with districts that went completely uncontested in 2024 and work our way out from there.

Our goal is $2,500 per candidate – enough for yard signs, postcards, and gas money – basics that make the difference between a real campaign and just a name on a ballot.

We fund in rounds: uncontested districts first, then Solid R, Likely R, and Lean R. Once a round hits its goal, the next opens. A candidate not listed may not yet qualify for this round, may still have a primary, or may not have an ActBlue page set up.
