Colorado's 6th Congressional District
Colorado's 6th congressional district is a congressional district in the U.S. state of Colorado. Located in central Colorado, the district encompasses much of the eastern part of the Denver metropolitan area, including all of Aurora, as well as portions of the southern (Centennial and Littleton) and northern metro area ( Brighton and Henderson). The district is currently represented by Democrat Jason Crow. The district was created in 1983 as a result of the redistricting cycle after the 1980 Census, and was originally a classic suburban Republican bastion; this was once the safest seat for Colorado Republicans outside of Colorado Springs.
