Despite Gardner's win however, with slightly over 48% of the vote, it is the lowest a winning Republican had received in the Class 2 Senate seat since 1918.
As of 2024, this is the last time that a Republican has won a Senate election in the state. This is also the last time as of 2024 that the Republican candidate won Larimer County.
Mark Udall was the only Democrat to file to run, and thus at the Democratic state assembly on April 12, 2014, he was renominated unopposed.[1]
