#MelatKiros becomes the first #GenZ woman elected to Congress #NPR | By Elena Moore Published Nov. 3, 2026 at 8:34 pm "Kiros, a 29-year-old #Ethiopian #immigrant and lawyer, cruised to victory Tuesday night in the reliably blue district, which includes most of Denver. The win comes just months after she handily defeated 15-term incumbent Diana DeGette in the state's Democratic primary, a high-profile party upset where voter frustration with leaders in Washington, D.C., and calls for political change were at the forefront." https://www.stlpr.org/npr/2026-11-03/melat-kiros-becomes-the-first-gen-z-woman-elected-to-congress #USPol #USElections #Colorado #ColoradoPol
