Democrat Eileen Laubacher Projected to Unseat Lauren Boebert in Colorado's 4th Congressional District
Laubacher led by about 3,000 votes as nearly all ballots were counted, while Boebert said she may seek a recount.
- CNN's Decision Desk projects retired Rear Adm. Eileen Laubacher will flip Colorado's 4th District, ending the congressional tenure of Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert.
- Boebert, first elected in 2020, faced escalating electoral pressure after narrowly defeating Democrat Adam Frisch by 546 votes in 2022, though she rebounded with an over 11-point reelection victory in 2024.
- Laubacher, a Navy veteran of more than three decades, capitalized on national headwinds against the GOP by focusing her campaign on affordability issues to flip the seat.
- The 39-year-old congresswoman drew frustration from House Republican leaders Kevin McCarthy and Mike Johnson, and crossed party leadership last year by joining a Democratic push to release Jeffrey Epstein case files.
- Trump's support proved volatile; despite endorsing Boebert as a 'MAGA Warrior,' he called her 'dumb' and 'weak-minded' earlier this year after she campaigned with Thomas Massie.
