Colorado Democrat John Hickenlooper is projected to unseat GOP Sen. Cory Gardner for US Senate

Hickenlooper, a former two-term mayor of Denver from 2004 to 2010, served two terms as the state's governor from 2011 to 2019. He was elected as a statewide Democrat in 2010 and 2014, two GOP wave years, andHickenlooper ran an ultimately unsuccessful campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination, and announced his campaign for US Senate shortly after dropping out of the presidential contest in August 2019.

Despite some negative headlines, he easily defeated his main opponent in the Democratic primary, Andrew Romanoff, by nearly 20 points on June 30. And now he's unseated the Republican incumbent.

Currently, the US Senate is made up of 53 Republicans, 45 Democrats, and two independents who caucus with Democrats. Democrats need to win back a net total of four seats to have a 51-seat majority.
