Colorado 2024 primary results: Trump, Biden projected to win

ABC News projects that former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden will win their respective parties' primaries in Colorado on Tuesday, based on analysis of the vote.

Thirty-seven delegates are up for grabs in the Republican race, and 72 delegates are on the table for Democrats.

Voters were able to cast their ballots in-person or via the mail, though all votes must have been received by local officials by 7 p.m. on Tuesday. Early voting began on Feb. 26.

As of 7:25 p.m., with 87% of the expected vote reporting, Trump led with 63% of the vote, while Nikki Haley had 34%.

With 73% of the expected vote reporting for Democrats, Biden led with 84% of the vote, while the "uncommitted" option had 7%, Marianne Williamson had 3% and Rep. Dean Phillips had 3%.

State significance

Colorado's primary was thrust into the spotlight in December after the state's Supreme Court said Trump could not appear on the ballot for violating the 14th Amendment, citing his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Trump denies wrongdoing and his team appealed the ruling. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled on Monday that states don't have the power to disqualify candidates in this way.

More broadly, the state has shifted more and more Democratic at the presidential level and is not expected to be a battleground in 2024.
