And then there's Lauren Boebert, who only won by 546 votes in 2022. Her opponent, Adam Frisch, has 3 times as much money banked as she does. Her escapade at the musical in September has not helped her. It will be a close race but Frisch has a lot more recognition and momentum this time.

Yes, I am in her district and the disgust with her out here is palpable. Also, with changing demographics in district 3, I think there is an excellent chance that Adam will win this next election.
BuckтАЩs district is one of the most fiercely conservative in Colorado. The DNC should help find a moderate Democrat who can reach across the aisle. Kind of like Adam Frisch, who is running in my conservative district. ThatтАЩs the only kind of Democrat who can win out there.
I think there are options. We should do everything we can to win. Even a loss like Adam Frisch experienced with Lauren Boebert is a good beginning. As Janet noted she has not done herself any favors and we must keep up the pressure. So too, we must push the envelope and be prepared to be pleasantly surprised in BuckтАЩs district.
As a native of the western Kansas High Plains ( 40 miles over the Colorado border, I admire your optimism. CO 4 encompasses much of Eastern Colorado and butts right up to also arch-conservative KS 1. Maybe someday; perhaps when hell freezes over? I would love to be pleasantly surprised. There is some slight hope; the meat-packing counties are tingeing ever so slightly light red instead of deep red.
We have to start some way, some day. It is part and parcel of focusing on the short and long game at the same time. Look at the western slope. Many believe Adam Frisch has good chance of unseating Lauren BooBoo :).
I remember now, MJ, because weтАЩve had this discussion before. I think you said you got moved into that district due to the recent redistricting. Ken Buck is too far to the right for me, but he has shown that he has a certain amount of integrity based on his behavior lately. I really hope you donтАЩt get someone even more hard right, but since he got kicked out of his office for admitting that Joe Biden won, I guess anything is possible. Ugh!
Yes, we have talked before. And I agree he has shown some integrity. It didn't exactly help him, though. I think he would have been primaried from the far right.
OK Marlene, that is a new and brilliant nickname for boo-boo. First time IтАЩve heard it. And just in case you didnтАЩt know this, theyтАЩre fake. She has implants. Oy!

I'm not in her district, thankfully. I've got Ken Buck. When he retires, someone even more hard-core right will emerge. I can't wait /s.
DonтАЩt let it happen MJ. Run for something or put up a strong Dem in Bucks district who can make a difference.
This district needs a Democrat along the lies of Adam Frisch to make headway. CO 4 has a ways to go before it's competitive.
Amen!

ItтАЩs terribly sad when a Republican has to suffer for doing the right thing, but this is the current Republican party.
From your lips to God's ear!

ЁЯШГЁЯШВ...maybe theyтАЩll тАЬpopтАЭ when she reaches the floor!
ThereтАЩs really not much more she can do to embarrass herself, but she appears to be without shame, so....
