Boebert's contest in Colorado is being watched nationally as Republicans try to flip control of the U.S. House in the midterm elections.
Republican Lauren Boebert is in a tight race in her bid for reelection to a U.S. House seat -- a battleground few, if any, political analysts saw coming, KMGH reports.Republican Lauren Boebert was locked in a tight race with fewer than 100 votes separating her and her opponent Wednesday night in her bid for reelection to a U.S. House seat in Colorado against Democrat Adam Frisch, a businessman and former city councilman from the posh, mostly liberal ski town of Aspen.
Boebert's contest in Colorado's sprawling 3rd Congressional District was being watched nationally as Republicans try to flip control of the U.S. House in the midterm elections. The Donald Trump loyalist established herself as a partisan flashpoint in Washington, D.C., in her first term, and had been favored to win reelection after redistricting made the conservative and mostly rural district more Republican.
The margin in the race puts it in the recount zone of about 800 votes or less, or 0.5% of the leader's vote total. Both Boebert and Frisch had 50% of the vote as of Wednesday night with about 97% of votes counted. Frisch contends Boebert sacrificed her constituents' interests for frequent "angertainment" in accusing President Joe Biden and Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of seeking to destroy the soul of the nation. He vowed to join the bipartisan "Problem Solvers Caucus" in Congress, a sharp turn from Boebert's repudiation of across-the-aisle consensus-building.
