The University of Colorado Board of Regents held its 2026 election on Tuesday night, with results yet to be finalized at press time. The election will produce at least one new member for the board, which currently consists of six members.
Four of the six incumbents are running for re-election, representing Colorado's 2nd Congressional District, 6th Congressional District, and 7th Congressional District. These districts mirror the state's congressional districts.
Callie Rennison, a Democrat, announced last year that she would not seek re-election to the 2nd Congressional District seat. The 6th and 7th district races are currently held by Democratic incumbents.
The board exerts significant influence, as it is responsible for setting policy and making funding decisions that govern the University of Colorado campuses, including CU Boulder, CU Denver, CU Colorado Springs, and the state's medical campus, CU Anschutz. The board currently has a 5-4 Democratic majority, which gives Democrats considerable control over the institution's direction.
Ongoing election results will be reported starting at 7 p.m. Jason Gonzales, a reporter covering higher education and the Colorado legislature, is providing live coverage. Chalkbeat Colorado collaborates with Open Campus to provide comprehensive higher education reporting.
