Rep. Lauren Boebert cruises to GOP primary victory in Colorado's 4th District
"Lauren Boebert easily won the Republican nomination for a new seat in Congress in Tuesday's primary election, but the two-term congresswoman fell short of majority support in the 4th District.
Why it matters: Her victory in the ruby-red district all-but ensures another term despite a barrage of criticism for leaving the 3rd District and her repeated missteps since taking office.
Driving the news: Boebert took 43% in preliminary results from the early vote. The Associated Press projected her as the winner 22 minutes after polls closed at 7pm.
Her five challengers split the protest vote against her, helping deliver her a victory. The closest finishers were Jerry Sonnenberg, a former state senator, and Deborah Flora, a conservative radio host."
