Colorado’s Rep. Lauren Boebert is fighting for her political life  – ‘one less extremist in office’

Colorado’s ultra-right-wing Congresswoman Lauren Boebert is fighting for her political life – just days ago, it seemed like she was easily walked back into re-election. 

Polling site FiveThirtyEight put her odds of winning at a whopping 97%.

But she’s now neck and neck with her opponent, political newcomer Adam Frisch. 

Frisch campaigned as a “conservative businessman” – he knew he was the underdog but believed Boebert’s combative style had made a surprise upset very possible. 

“I think [Boebert] has done a good job on opening up a huge allowance for someone else to come in there,” Frisch said.

Today, the tone from his camp was celebratory, saying he was hopeful as the final votes were counted.

“Hopefully soon Coloradans and Americans alike can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that there is one less extremist in office,” Frisch said.
