Colorado voted for the Democratic candidate Franklin D. Roosevelt over Republican candidate Alf Landon. Roosevelt won Colorado by a margin of 23.28%, carrying every county except Elbert, Kit Carson and Rio Blanco.
As of the 2024 presidential election, this is the last occasion when Washington County and Hinsdale County voted for a Democratic presidential candidate. The state would vote Republican in 14 of the next 17 presidential elections, with Democrats achieving a majority of the vote twice in that period.
