5:03Now PlayingLauren Boebert's much-anticipated primary is tomorrow, and we could know by the end of the day if her career in Congress is finally over. But before we get to that point, her rivals on both sides of the political aisle are trying to get a few more shots in. One of her Democratic rivals posted a video of himself sitting in the same exact seat at the theater where she was removed during a performance of Beetlejuice The Musical in an attempt to both humiliate her and get donations. Farron Cousins explains what happened.

Well, tomorrow is the day folks, the day that could tell us whether or not Lauren Boebert's career in Congress is officially over. 'cause tomorrow is the Republican primary in Colorado. And if Lauren Bobert does not pull off a victory, then she's essentially a lame duck for the rest of the year. And then she's gone. Don't know how long she'll be gone for if she gets gone at all, but there's a good chance it happens. And as we near the finish line, her, uh, rivals both on the Republican and Democratic side, are trying to get a few late shots in to remind voters of how disgusting she truly is. One of those rivals happens to be the Democratic front runner in the Democratic primary for Colorado's fourth district man by the name of John Pdoa. And Pdoa has put out a new video online where he is sitting in the exact same, uh, theater seat where Lauren Bobert was when she got kicked out of Beetlejuice, the musical last September.
Here is what he says in the video. I'm sitting in the very seat that Lauren Bobert got kicked out of the same way she got kicked out of Colorado's third congressional district. Now she's picked up her bags and fled to Eastern Colorado to run in the fourth congressional district. That's a race I've been running since May of 2023. Bobert is an opportunistic carpet bagger and we deserve real leadership here in the Colorado Fourth, please, if you can ship in $5, $10 today to make sure that we have the resources we need to win the race. So a campaign pitch, obviously a donation pitch. Give me a little bit more money. You got a contentious primary. And if I win that, obviously a very contentious race here in a deep red district. But once again, like right before people go to the polls reminding everyone that, Hey, here's the seat.
Remember what she did? Remember what a disgusting person she truly is here. Let's not forget that as you head to the polls, it's a powerful message with very powerful imagery. And as I mentioned, uh, Mr. Pdoa is leading the democratic side, but it's also a deep red district. It's also unfortunately important to remember, uh, Lauren Bobert is leading the Republican side, so I know we all want her to lose this primary, but based on the polling that we've seen, it doesn't look likely to happen. What is most likely going to happen is that Lauren Bobert is going to get a plurality, but not a majority of the votes. I mean, right now, a recent Kaplan strategy survey of 343 Colorado Republicans, so not
A huge sample size, but found Bobert leading with 40%, which is 35%, uh, 35 points ahead of her closest rival, who is business owner Peter Yu, who has 5%. So Bert's in first place with 40%. The second place person has 5%. Granted, again, very small sample size. She has lost every straw poll conducted after the debates. So I don't know what's gonna happen. I I, I really genuinely cannot read these tea leaves because each one is telling us something completely different. But I do think Bobert is going to pull ahead, but possibly not enough to escape a runoff. And that's where things are gonna get interesting. Obviously there is a lot of Republicans in that race. I think there's like seven or eight. So that vote is getting spread around very thin. If Bobert can only secure a plurality and not a majority forcing a runoff between her and probably Peter Yu you stands to gain if he can capitalize on it, all the support from all the other people to keep Bobert out. So she may win the primary but lose a runoff. But again, it's also a deep red district. So if she does win either the primary or the subsequent runoff, if it happens, uh, she's probably going back to Congress. We'll know more tomorrow. It's gonna be interesting. But voters in the Colorado's fourth congressional district need to remember who this person is and why she is so disgusting. And of course, as Mr. Pdoa pointed out, why she had to leave the third congressional district because she was so hated.
