Rep. Lauren Boebert is facing voters in a new district in the Colorado primaries, where voters will determine whether Boebert's district-switching gambit pays off.
Washington — Rep. Lauren Boebert is facing voters in a new district on Tuesday, as Coloradans head to the polls in the state's primaries, where they will determine whether Boebert's district-switching gambit pays off. Boebert, who was first elected in 2020 and narrowly won reelection in Colorado's 3rd District in 2022, opted to run in a district more friendly to conservatives this year following former Rep. Ken Buck's decision not to seek reelection.
Still, Boebert's opponents have accused her of carpetbagging, noting that she lived hundreds of miles from some of the constituents she would represent should she win in November. But the GOP firebrand has countered that she has experience in Congress that her opponents lack. And for voters, part of the decision could come down to what they value more — Boebert's national profile and record or a candidate with deep ties to the district.
