In 2016, the Boulder County piece of CD4 voted for the Democrat 53% to 41%, which only provided a margin of about 6K votes (out of about 45K votes total). Buck won the election by 125K votes. If every Longmont vote had gone to Buck's opponent - Buck still would have won. They carved him out a virtually un-loseable district.
