More Boulder election coverage: Read about Aaron Brockett’s reelection as mayor, the Boulder City Council race and the results of city and county ballot measures.

As of Wednesday morning, Boulder Mayor Aaron Brockett had won reelection, while three incumbent councilmembers and former councilmember Jill Grano were headed for victory. Sam Fuqua was leading the race for the fifth council seat, with little change expected in the council’s political makeup. The city’s $400 million bond measure was poised to fail, while voters were on track to approve a vacant-home tax, collective bargaining rights for firefighters, new child care funding and an expansion of the Board of County Commissioners. A proposal to incorporate Niwot was also headed for defeat.

Results will appear here as they’re reported. All results are unofficial until certified. Boulder County results are here. Statewide results are here. We are not reporting results for county offices on this page because most of those races are uncontested or noncompetitive.
