Boulder County election results: Edie Hooton wins CU regent primary; Rachel Friend leads treasurer race

Former state Rep. Edie Hooton won the Democratic primary Tuesday night for the University of Colorado Board of Regents in the 2nd Congressional District, one of the most closely watched local races of the night.

The win makes Hooton the overwhelming favorite in November, given the district’s Democratic leanings.

eparately, in the Democratic primary for Boulder County treasurer, former Boulder City Councilmember Rachel Friend holds a substantial lead over Superior Town Councilmember Jenn Kaaoush.

Preliminary ballot return data showed about 37% of registered voters cast ballots in the June 30 primary. Thousands of ballots remained to be counted Tuesday night, according to election night results.
