Boebert ousted by Laubacher in Colorado House race

Democrat Eileen Laubacher has been projected to win Colorado’s 4th Congressional District, defeating incumbent Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert. The race was considered likely Republican, but Laubacher secured about 48.8% of the vote to Boebert’s 47.9%, ending the firebrand congresswoman’s three‑term tenure. The loss marks a defeat for President Trump’s ally in a district that has long favored the GOP, with NBC News and Associated Press calling the race as Laubacher pulled ahead with more than 95% of ballots counted.
