Lauren Boebert, the Republican representative from Colorado who rose to national fame as one of Donald Trump’s biggest cheerleaders, has lost her seat in Congress.

The race was too close to call on election night last week, but after every vote was counted the Democrat Eileen Laubacher has been declared the winner by the AP news agency.

    She didn’t lose that one. She very narrowly beat a dem challenger in the 2022 election, by something like 87 votes. The next election, after even more scandal, he was going to challenge her seat again. Instead, she ran off to a deeper red district in 2024 and took that seat.

    She has now lost that one. I guess Colorado ran out of red she could hide behind.
