Opinion | 'If Republicans want to exert a modicum of political influence in this deep blue state, they must reject Trump’s style, his election conspiracy theories, and the man himself. Take heed congresswoman.'
Republican U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert, center, and her 10-year-old son watch Jayson Boebert, right, hand his ballot to an election staff member to be stamped before both of them dropped their ballots in the box at a polling center at Garfield County Fairgrounds in Rifle on Nov. 8, 2022. Their 10-year-old son Roman joined them on Election Day before they headed to Grand Junction for more campaign events for the congresswoman.
Republican candidates for U.S. Senate, Secretary of State, Treasurer, and Attorney General all received more votes in Colorado’s third district than did the congresswoman. While Boebert beat her opponent by a fraction of a percent in CD3, Lang Sias led his opponent by seven percentage points, John Kellner beat his by five, Pam Anderson hers by three, and Joe O’Dea his by two.
Instead, a significant percentage of right-leaning voters split their ticket by voting for GOP statewide candidates and a Democrat for Congress or by voting for the GOP and leaving an empty bubble for that race. Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, for example, beat Stacey Abrams 53% to 46%. Trump-picked Herschel Walker is tied in the polls going into the December 5 runoff. So long as no more skeletons tumble out of his closet and he refrains from talking, he has a chance, but the GOP would be in a far stronger position had they picked a different candidate.
