The CO-1 race
Olivia Miller is running as a Democrat for the U.S. House in Colorado’s 1st Congressional District. The general election is scheduled for Nov. 3, 2026, and the race is classified as contested.
The listed field includes 12 candidates: eight Democrats, three Republicans and one candidate whose affiliation is recorded as “UN.” Democratic incumbent Diana L. DeGette is also among the candidates. The official entries contain no campaign finance totals or documented policy positions for anyone in the field.

Background, positions and campaign money
Miller’s entry does not identify personal history, education, employment, previous public service or other biographical details. It also does not record positions on legislation or public policy. That means the official record does not establish where Miller stands on issues in the congressional race.
The same limits apply to every other listed candidate. None has a documented policy position on file, so the field cannot be compared on issues using these entries alone.
Campaign finance categories are also blank throughout the field. There are no figures on file for money raised, money spent or cash on hand for Miller, Cutlip, Smith, DeGette, Hanson, Kiros, Peterson, Blau, Rodgers, Oldfield, Palomino or James.
What voters should watch
The next concrete date listed for the race is the Nov. 3, 2026, general election. Before voting, the candidate field and official entries may change as the election process continues.
New candidate biographies, policy statements or campaign finance totals would add information voters could use to compare the contenders. Until those details appear in official records, the entries establish only the candidates’ names, listed affiliations, the contested status of the race, DeGette’s incumbency and the general election date.
