(The Center Square) – Colorado made sweeping blue waves in Tuesday’s congressional races, and this time around, most contests were not close. But one of the losers, U.S. Rep. Gabe Evans, R-Lupton, wants a recount despite being 14% behind the winner.

The state’s most contentious races – districts 1, 4 and 8 – were all won by Democrats. U.S. Sen. John Hickenlooper, D-Colorado, won by a 25-percentage point margin against his Republican challenger.
