I'm guessing, by the racial breakdown, that Mejia is the Hispanic candidate, Hancock is the black candidate, and Romer is the white candidate?

He's Roy Romer's son. He's in the State Senate.

A little research suggests that Carol Boigon may be a closet Republican. The rest appear to be Democrats.

Edit: Boigon dropped out and endorsed Hancock, so the answer is now no.

Primary is today:

Looks like Romer will make it to the runoff, while Hancock has a slight lead over Mejia for the second slot.

I believe turnout was expected to be about 100,000 votes. Most of the votes were reported immediately, thanks to Colorado's heavy emphasis on vote-by-mail now.

Romer and Hancock are going to the runoff; Romer won 28.7%, Hancock 27.0%, and Mejia 25.7%.

I can't say I've followed this race closely enough; from what little I know, I'd say Romer would be a slight favorite in the runoff.

Strange how evenly-distributed the support is for the two candidates (except for black voters).

The runoff is today. Thanks to Colorado's vote-by-mail system, we'll probably know who won within minutes, unless it ends up being really close.

Well, this doesn't sound good for Hancock.
