Colorado state Rep. Lindsey Daugherty is on track to win the Democratic primary election in Senate District 19, according to early results from the secretary of state’s office.

Daugherty was ahead of Westminster City Council member Obi Ezeadi with 65% of the vote as of 10:20 p.m. Tuesday.

Senate District 19 is centered in Jefferson County and includes parts of Arvada and Westminster. It is currently represented by Democratic Sen. Rachel Zenzinger, who won in 2020 with 59% of the vote. She is term limited and cannot run again.

Daugherty will face Republican Sam Bandimere in November’s general election.

In Newsline’s state Senate primary Q&A , Daugherty said her top three priorities for the 2025 legislative session are to support workers, make health care affordable, and invest in public education.
