Boebert wins GOP primary in new Colorado House district
The Hill ^ | 06/25/24 | CAROLINE VAKIL

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) has won the GOP primary in Colorado’s eastern 4th Congressional District, according to Decision Desk HQ.

Boebert defeated a group of Republican challengers to prevail in the Republican contest to replace former Rep. Ken Buck (R-Colo.), defying assumptions early on in the primary cycle that her days in Congress were numbered.

The Colorado Republican, who currently represents the western 3rd Congressional District, initially ran for another term in that district, after narrowly winning her second term against Democrat Adam Frisch by several hundred votes in 2022.

She decided late last year to instead run in the eastern — and safely red — 4th Congressional District to avoid another expensive and competitive House race. But Boebert’s path to winning the Republican nomination was far from certain when she decided to run in the new district.

“Good news.”

Yes. She barely won last time. Then pantywaist traitor Buck retires and she’ll be replacing him.

It didn’t go as they expected.

Also, recently Nancy Mace survived. Kevin McCarthy tried to take her out in her primary for her vote to remove him as the Speaker.

Yes. As sketchy as her personal life seems to be, she is a solid outspoken conservative in an increasingly blue state.

Wait a minute, when she won her last election, it took DAYS to count the votes. Now 40 minutes after the polls close they can get answers.

Typical.

Mace is an idiot. But I like McCarthy not getting his way. There was no happiness in that race for me...

With Bowman losing in NY, at least Congress next year will be more beautiful.
