Lauren Boebert Wins Re-Election

Adam Frisch (D) conceded to Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) in the race for Colorado’s 3rd congressional district, saying that an expected recount was unlikely to change the outcome of the election, The Hill reports.

Denver Post: “Last week, Boebert cited low enthusiasm for up-ticket Republicans as a reason for her near-loss. And while Republicans across Colorado — and much of the country — fared more poorly than expected in the midterm elections, political scientists said the bombastic and often-controversial congresswoman’s poor showing likely also serves as a referendum on her.”

“Boebert’s first term in office has been marked by scandal and investigations far more than policy successes.”
