He graduated summa cum laude with a Bachelor of Arts in political science in 1997 from Colorado State University, where he was a member of the FarmHouse fraternity.

2006

In 2006, Gardner proposed legislation to create a rainy-day fund to help protect the state from future economic downturns.

His proposal relied on money made available by Referendum C—which allowed state revenue caps to be exceeded for five years —for future budget emergencies.

He staunchly opposed any tax increases.

2010

On November 2, 2010, Gardner defeated Markey, 52%–41%.

Gardner ran unopposed in the Republican primary before defeating Democratic nominee Brandon Shaffer 59%–37% in the general election.

He was helped by the 2010 redistricting, which cut Fort Collins and Larimer County out of the district.

Fort Collins had long been the 4th's largest city.

For years, Larimer and the district's second-largest county, Weld County, home to Greeley, accounted for 85 percent of the district's population even though they only took up 15 percent of its land.

Gardner was the Republican nominee for Senate, and narrowly defeated incumbent Senator Mark Udall in the general election 48% to 46%, receiving 965,974 votes to Udall's 916,245.
