Matt Alexander won the Colorado House District 60 race over Kathryn Kester Green after receiving 66% of the vote as of November 4. Green conceded in a statement posted to her Facebook page on Wednesday morning, and Alexander's race was called in his favor while not all votes had been counted.
Why it matters
The district is conservative-leaning and is currently represented by Republican Stephanie Luck, so the outcome preserves that partisan balance in the state House. Green said voters did not feel she was the right fit for the seat.
Alexander held 66% of the vote as of November 4, according to unofficial returns, while the race was called before all votes were counted. The extraction does not provide certified totals or the number of ballots still outstanding at the time of the call.
