Lauren Boebert, Trump Ally, Loses Colorado House Race, CNN Projects
Elected to Congress in 2020, Boebert quickly established herself as one of Trump’s most vocal supporters in the House.
Lauren Boebert, a Republican representative and staunch Trump supporter, is expected to lose her seat in the Colorado 4th congressional district, according to CNN's projections. The race saw her trailing her Democratic opponent, Eileen Laubacher, by a mere 0.9 percent margin. Boebert, who previously represented Colorado's 3rd congressional district, gained national attention for her outspoken support of Trump and her controversial behavior in Congress.
The announcement of her loss comes just a week after the midterm elections, which saw Democrats gain control of both the Senate and the House, thanks to several unexpected wins in traditionally Republican states.
