As a CO resident and voter, I am predicting that the CO-8 congressional district will be located in-

Southern Part of Jefferson County(CO-2)
All of Douglas County(CO-4)
Northern Part of El Paso County(CO-5)

Jefferson County will be the Democratic stronghold
El Paso County will be the Republican stronghold.
Douglas County will be a Battleground County.

El Paso has liberal areas (downtown and Manitou). Northern EP is pretty extremist (I do what can to counteract). Douglas is where they declared "the pandemic is over".

issues. Uggh. Jeffco is safer for us, but it has its share of RWers too. Give Denver another district or split it between Ft. Collins and Boulder.
