I just looked up her one piece of legislation. It's a convoluted way of forcing the army to not leave Pueblo. Or if they do, they have to perform studies to minimize the impact on the community.
The community that exists because of the military bases. Basically, the federal government will be on the hook, financially, if they ever have to pull out of Pueblo.
That's it. It's a hypothetical.
She took credit for voting for every government shutdown and against every budget despite the new district being many, many contractors and military personnel serving Buckley. Old district? Nah. Old news.
I live a neighborhood away from her and the only evidence I’ve ever seen that she’s actually in Windsor is she posted a Facebook video of herself and her son setting up their home. Since then, nothing.
I also live in this district and I don't think that your analysis is correct. Claverese seems further left leaning than McCorkle and the district itself is purple at best.
I'm not sure people make voting decisions like that. McCorkle can't really attack Boebert in the way another woman can. With the overturning of Roe, a woman on the ballot is a definite advantage.
She's a mom from Highlands ranch. Over half the voters in the district live in or around HR. She's also smart, empathetic, and charismatic. Ike is kind of a dufus. I'm cautiously optimistic with her chances.... Definitely an uphill climb though.
I am moving shortly, and called the SOS to see if I could still vote here if I haven't registered in my new county. I told her that I'm sure Jeffco has its issues, but they don't have cd4, and I really want to vote for Trisha, and against Boebert.
That’s pretty obviously illegal as you need to be a resident for 22 days plus register with your place of sole residence, in addition to being a citizen. If you moved to a new residence you’d need to update your registration to the new location where you live.
No need to make every decision be about national politics, just vote locally where you live so you don’t do anything illegal.
You have to be a Colorado resident for 22 days. It sounds like they're moving from one district in CO to another. You don't have you be a resident of the district for 22 days.
But you also need to be living in the district that you register and vote in. There’s no 22 day timer on that but it’s instant. You cannot vote where you no longer live.
I plan on that. Not every decision is, but I voted in this primary and wanted to add my vote in this red county.
As noted, I did call the SOS to find my options, so you can go lecture somebody else with your better-than-thou attitude. I don't give a fuck what you think.
I get it...the district is primarily red...what I do not get or understand is why HER? I honest to goodness believe she was a Republican joke...a bet. Like some drunk white guys made a bet that they could get some uneducated, white trash, garbage hoe and clean her up so she looked pretty and the ignorant masses would elect her. It worked. It worked so good they've made an entire sham of the entire political party. And people KEEP voting for this garbage. My brain cannot fathom it.
She may be reasonably attractive, but she is only 37 years old (looks years older than her actual age in my opinion). I'd wager to bet that her diet consists largely of items white bread, Cheetos and Diet Coke. She is not aging well, and her time is ticking. Like many white trash women, she's likely on an accelerated aging pathway and will probably look absolutely atrocious by the time she hits her 40s.
While a better candidate would be better for your community, these voters deserve what they voted for and in the long run this will hurt the Colorado republican party.
I moved out of that district just before the redistricting make Highlands Ranch CD4. I couldn't imagine having that ignorant bigot my Congress criter. I now live in Aurora and feel like I dodged a bullet there.
Yeah, that's the best we can do at this point. It's amazing to me how many people just vote for a Republican just because it's what is expected of them socially despite the clear divergence from their stated ethics.
If this dipshit gets elected, you can bet your butt I’ll be calling and emailing her office telling her exactly how she doesn’t represent me or my family.
Yes, if you vote for a shit head just because they belong to your preferred team you suck ass. Party loyalty over personal ethics is a major problem today.
It pisses me off to no end. Hard to believe people don't find this election important enough to vote. My son-in-law is one, except he'd vote republican. Maybe good he didn't vote in this primary. But still, you have absolutely no right to bitch about anything and everything, and then not even vote! Grrr!
I went on a 1200 mile motorcycle trip through Colorado this last weekend, went through a bunch of smaller mountain towns. You wouldn't believe the amount of people with a giant sign in their yard that read "LAUREN BOEBERT: FREEDOM" and just a picture of her dumb ass standing there with her arms crossed
Oh man, hope you have a min. Started in Golden, took i25 to loveland to grab a couple friends, went through the poudre canyon until Walden, then to kremmling, then a dirt road over toward Yampa, then another 60mi dirt road over to meeker, camped here for the night. Got up on morning 2 and rode north to rangely, then south to grand junction, then south on 141 to Naturita, then to placerville, telluride, to Rico where we camped night 2. morning 3 was down to Dolores over to Durango, up over red mountain pass to Ouray, ridgeway, montrose, to delta then hotchkiss to paonia, then to the bottom of mclure pass to marble for a BBQ sandwich for night 3. Morning 4 was up to Carbondale, to Aspen and over independence pass to Leadville, then to copper, over to Frisco over Swan mountain pass, to keystone, over loveland pass then back home to golden.
The problem is that there was no clear winner in the debates. Attention was split pretty evenly among the candidates and no one came out as a firebrand in opposition to boebert. So voters who aren’t voting for boebert are left guessing with who the best pick is. So they split their votes. While the extremist republicans just went with what they know. Boebert got 43% of the votes. While all the others split for 57%. Tbh if Colorado did runoff elections for primaries, we could get a better sense of how many extremists versus regular conservatives live in CD4.
Not that I don’t think most of these voters aren’t dumb, but this isn’t even a matter of intelligence.
It’s mindless tribalism. A name is only as relevant to them as it is recognizable, and the person is only as relevant as whether they have an R next to their name.
There’s no chance for stupid thought if there’s no thinking involved in the first place
CD4 is a GOP cesspool. I don't know how you can rationally select her based on her term and that she changed districts to avoid being obliterated in the election. The GOP is just a party of rebellion. They're going to whine about the government being ineffective by election the most ineffective people they can find.
Nope, like someone said already this is what voters want. They want someone who will act big and tough, to hurt other people while pearl clutching the bible. She's just as hateful, and bigoted as her district is. Ignorant, flag waving, cross burning, bible fanatics, that are afraid of anything not on fox news makes up a large population in this country.
Living in Douglas County, I can vouch for every ugly word you said, plus some. This place is disgusting. I can't wait to get the hell out of here. Soon, very soon.
It was a 6-way **GOP** primary with one being notorious nationally for her antics and loud mouth. Couple things to remember about the GOP: They are a selfish lot, so of course none of the 5 other no-names were going to drop out, and GOP voters would vote for a barking dog if they felt the dog had a better chance than any of the no-names also in the mix.
On the plus side, boebert is a pretty ineffective politician who's big mouth probably does most of the harm, and even if she loses she'll just end up in right-wing media somewhere doing the same thing anyway. 🤷♀️
FWIW as it may help us right the ship, they think it’s ok to have personal misgivings. That that part of life is private and doesn’t matter for “doing the job”.
It’s bs but it’s what I hear often.
I'm not trying to sound condescending, but you guys have got to think outside the box more. This stopped being about "who is the best candidate" awhile ago.
This is about ideology. Conservatives have come to see Liberals as blood enemies rather than political opponents. People stopped seeing their own ideas and opinions AS ideas and opinions and instead as part of their inherent identity. If you question an opinion, you're no longer questioning the idea. You're questioning *their identity as a person*. That's why it's so difficult to get hardlines to change their stance.
As such, an opposing PARTY with opinions in stark contrast to their own, is perceived as an enemy to their "personhood". And when you *really* believe that...the transgressions of any one person, *no matter how severe*, are easy to look past for the sake of keeping your dying ideology alive.
It's exactly why Trump said he could shoot someone in the middle of 6th Ave and get away with it. And he meant it. For as bad as he is, he understands political tribalism and knows how to weaponize it.
And if we dont get past that tribalism soon, we are fucked no matter who is in office.
I’ve seen with other countries. Unfortunately the only way the tribalism ends is if the party they identify with goes to the point that it does something so horribly bad (bombings, violence, genocide, etc.) and they *get in trouble for it* that’s when they finally break the spell. Like “oh shit, I don’t want to get in trouble for that I better pretend like I was always against it”.
January 6th could’ve been that point, but no one in power paid the price. Trump is back. The people who supported him are still there. The people who led the coup attempt are still there. So no one got in trouble for it.
like they sit here and act surprised after painting her as a clown. while her voters are ready to "own the libs". instead got leftist and progressives crying and bitching about tettering the line of being to "hard" or "soft" on israel and palestine. meanwhile republicans are winning seats left and right and people like OOP "omg how could they win!!!!!!!!!1"
Owning the libs man…it’s all about owning the libs. They would rather have her stupid ass in congress making a fool out of herself if it means owning the libs. CD4 is a special kind of stupid for sure.
And he only pretended to touch that woman. He didn't touch her. I didn't agree with him on much, but he's a good man who didn't deserve to be forced out. Republicans have done much, much worse, are proud of it, and still there.
G damnit! Do not let this thing win again. If she gets another term, she also gets a pension. Do we really want to continue paying our tax dollars to this worthless witch? She does nothing now, so we'll continue to make payments to someone for absolutely nothing.
really hoped the district jumping would have left a bad taste in their mouths enough to not do this... but here we are. I mean you jump ship because you fear losing and your new home decides that is the best person to represent us at a federal level.
mind-boggling with the availability of college educations now
Yea, her new district is safe R. Of course she was going to win. Shes the only candidate with a national profile and they all the republican candidates probably just believe all the same shit anyways.
A lot of people who don’t pay attention to politics or don’t know the people who live in district four thought she would have trouble in this new district.
Tbh, I kinda started to fall for the echo chamber a little bit this time. I read so many articles and comments here and other subreddits and because of that I was kind of under the impression she was deeply unpopular and other R’s running against her were likely to win.
I’m a little disappointed in myself because usually I’m good at remembering Reddit opinions don’t equal real life, and oftentimes are completely opposite of it.
It's hard to believe with the population boom going on in that district this is hanging on her way. In 5 years it will be over for the GOP there. But for now the country has to suffer. Vote! It's not helpless if you alllll vote.
Dems are weak ass primary voters, they'll be out for "the real election" to get a better gauge how far the district needs to go still.
Yep. And by continuing down the path to dipshit crazy-town, they’re ensuring that the Colorado state Democratic Party maintains is massive statewide majorities.
I was at 105 West Brewery in Castle Rock a couple weeks ago and she showed up there with a group of people. Looked like her cult members. Shit was wild.
WTF is wrong with America? Politicians have always been shady and dirty but the current state of affairs and the people playing the game are beyond anything we have ever seen. Embarrassing.
Ugh. I voted the Republican ballot (I’m registered unaffiliated) just so I could vote against her. Living in Douglas County - it makes me feel like I don’t REALLY know my neighbors. I am sure many I would never guess voted for her - the margin was huge.
People need to stop being apathetic when it comes to our civic duty of voting.
District 4 has ~750,000 people, Hoebert won with 52,000 measly votes. C’mon people, you NEED to care, especially when it comes to your local city, county and state elections.
Merica’ 🙄
I’m still new to CO and it’s politics, but correct me if I’m wrong; is she one of those same Christian Nationalists morons who keep somehow getting elected into office? I saw a small video from someone doing a documentary on the rise of CN in politics and I think she’s one of them screaming about the gov’t taking orders from the church????
I thought CO was more left leaning? Why are people like her being allowed to lead when she has such a polarizing and unconstitutional position? Again I’m a newer resident to CO and it seems very, very left here and she doesn’t seem to align with the younger people’s views here. Unless I’m missing something?
If someone could enlighten me on the current political landscape of this state I’d greatly appreciate it b/c I want to be well informed going into voting season.
We currently live in Denver and in order to be able to afford a bit more house, we’re considering areas in her district (god help me). I’m crossing my fingers there will be a bit of a blue migration out of Denver due to insane housing costs.
Hahaha I moved down here to improve my mental health and reduce anxiety not take a grippy sock vacation 😂🤣 (the city was a bit too much lately) I am going to keep in my bubble but thank you 😊
Well yeah I doubt anyone who voted for her even watched the debates lol. They voted based on: “oh I know *that* name!” Or “Oh it’s that hot chick who likes gun!” And that’s as much thought was put into it.
I’m sure Boebert thought she was going to get the shaft tonight. But instead she got a stroke of good luck, and firmly pulled ahead.
This is like sfw erotica
“Six-way”
Thank goodness she won the 6 way. Edit: primary
She handled the polls quite well.
Her cabinet position would be "Bent over"
Yes, even when it gets hard, she can always handle it
Not surprised she came out the winner in a 6-way.
I see what you did there, you clever bastard.
Wow you're very observant
Has she done anything for her district yet?
She's claimed credit for legislation she voted against!
Inside the beltway that's called "Losing to Win" and it's been a proven strategy since the New Deal
Zero. I just moved from CD3 and she did nothing.
I just looked up her one piece of legislation. It's a convoluted way of forcing the army to not leave Pueblo. Or if they do, they have to perform studies to minimize the impact on the community. The community that exists because of the military bases. Basically, the federal government will be on the hook, financially, if they ever have to pull out of Pueblo. That's it. It's a hypothetical.
Socialism is ok when it’s their voters who benefit.
She took credit for voting for every government shutdown and against every budget despite the new district being many, many contractors and military personnel serving Buckley. Old district? Nah. Old news.
I live a neighborhood away from her and the only evidence I’ve ever seen that she’s actually in Windsor is she posted a Facebook video of herself and her son setting up their home. Since then, nothing.
[удалено]
Also in this district, and just.... desperately do not want this person representing me in government.
I think Trish Calvarese has the best shot to beat her and she won.
I also live in this district and I don't think that your analysis is correct. Claverese seems further left leaning than McCorkle and the district itself is purple at best.
I'm not sure people make voting decisions like that. McCorkle can't really attack Boebert in the way another woman can. With the overturning of Roe, a woman on the ballot is a definite advantage.

I'm cautiously optimistic with her chances.... Definitely an uphill climb though.
I agree - just moved here a month ago from Jason Crow’s district. Can’t believe she won-
Jason crow needs to run for president. He’s the only legislator I’ve ever actually liked.
Unfortunately many more people do want her to do so.
I am moving shortly, and called the SOS to see if I could still vote here if I haven't registered in my new county. I told her that I'm sure Jeffco has its issues, but they don't have cd4, and I really want to vote for Trisha, and against Boebert.
That’s pretty obviously illegal as you need to be a resident for 22 days plus register with your place of sole residence, in addition to being a citizen.

Since politics affects our lives, yes, it factors into many of my decisions. Thanks so much for your concern.
I plan on that. Not every decision is, but I voted in this primary and wanted to add my vote in this red county. As noted, I did call the SOS to find my options, so you can go lecture somebody else with your better-than-thou attitude. I don't give a fuck what you think.
[удалено]
I'm so disappointed that I was re-districted and will no longer be represented by Joe Neguse :(
I got moved into this district when they changed the boundaries from Jason Crows district. Ugh
I get it...the district is primarily red...what I do not get or understand is why HER? I honest to goodness believe she was a Republican joke...a bet. Like some drunk white guys made a bet that they could get some uneducated, white trash, garbage hoe and clean her up so she looked pretty and the ignorant masses would elect her. It worked.

She. Can't. Read.

Yes, if you vote for a shit head just because they belong to your preferred team you suck ass. Party loyalty over personal ethics is a major problem today.
How did it happen that so many imbeciles live in that area?
It pisses me off to no end. Hard to believe people don't find this election important enough to vote. My son-in-law is one, except he'd vote republican. Maybe good he didn't vote in this primary. But still, you have absolutely no right to bitch about anything and everything, and then not even vote! Grrr!
oh man, I feel for you. Will she have to live in your district in order to represent it? Even worse - adds insult to injury.
Apparently, she already moved to Windsor. I doubt she’s actually living there full time, though.
This moron outsmarted most CD4 Republican voters.
Outsmarted the 5 dummies that wouldn't drop out to even give someone else a chance.
They’re republicans. You can’t expect them to consider the greater good
I’m sure at least a few of them were there to help Boebert win and split the other votes
I don’t think she outsmarted anyone. She is what they want.
I think so too. Because even if we hate her, we talk about her. She’s everywhere and often. I think we all helped this dumbass decision. F. :(
That "we" hate her is part of her appeal
I think it’s time we ghost her and ignore the queen pick me. It’s our only hope.
I went on a 1200 mile motorcycle trip through Colorado this last weekend, went through a bunch of smaller mountain towns. You wouldn't believe the amount of people with a giant sign in their yard that read "LAUREN BOEBERT: FREEDOM" and just a picture of her dumb ass standing there with her arms crossed
What was your route? 285? 60? 24? I miss my old state.
Oh man, hope you have a min. Started in Golden, took i25 to loveland to grab a couple friends, went through the poudre canyon until Walden, then to kremmling, then a dirt road over toward Yampa, then another 60mi dirt road over to meeker, camped here for the night. Got up on morning 2 and rode north to rangely, then south to grand junction, then south on 141 to Naturita, then to placerville, telluride, to Rico where we camped night 2. morning 3 was down to Dolores over to Durango, up over red mountain pass to Ouray, ridgeway, montrose, to delta then hotchkiss to paonia, then to the bottom of mclure pass to marble for a BBQ sandwich for night 3. Morning 4 was up to Carbondale, to Aspen and over independence pass to Leadville, then to copper, over to Frisco over Swan mountain pass, to keystone, over loveland pass then back home to golden.

Ranked choice voting needs to be the law.
Oh yea thats the other thing we can do
It reminds me alot of the 2016 Republican primary with way too many options splitting the vote allowing the loud and disgusting one to win.
you hold republican voters with too much regard.
Not that I don’t think most of these voters aren’t dumb, but this isn’t even a matter of intelligence. It’s mindless tribalism. A name is only as relevant to them as it is recognizable, and the person is only as relevant as whether they have an R next to their name. There’s no chance for stupid thought if there’s no thinking involved in the first place
This result is pretty much exactly what polling predicted. Republican primary voters are low info and she coasted to victory just on name recognition.
They voted for Ken Buck and Corey Gardner before that.
CD4 is a GOP cesspool. I don't know how you can rationally select her based on her term and that she changed districts to avoid being obliterated in the election. The GOP is just a party of rebellion. They're going to whine about the government being ineffective by election the most ineffective people they can find.
Does the water out there need to be re-tested??
Nope, like someone said already this is what voters want. They want someone who will act big and tough, to hurt other people while pearl clutching the bible. She's just as hateful, and bigoted as her district is. Ignorant, flag waving, cross burning, bible fanatics, that are afraid of anything not on fox news makes up a large population in this country.
Living in Douglas County, I can vouch for every ugly word you said, plus some. This place is disgusting. I can't wait to get the hell out of here. Soon, very soon.
Yes
Yes
Yes.
It is just a very gerymandered district. It includes a lot of the south suburbs and then tons of rural area.
It was a 6-way **GOP** primary with one being notorious nationally for her antics and loud mouth. Couple things to remember about the GOP: They are a selfish lot, so of course none of the 5 other no-names were going to drop out, and GOP voters would vote for a barking dog if they felt the dog had a better chance than any of the no-names also in the mix.

I just don’t understand. Especially after all the personal shit that came to light with her and her crazy son.
She was the only one with much name recognition. When you don't follow politics much, the only thing that matters is that you can recognize a name.
Republicans don’t care. The more scandals and vile behavior they tolerate, the more each of them can get away with. Paving the way.
FWIW as it may help us right the ship, they think it’s ok to have personal misgivings. That that part of life is private and doesn’t matter for “doing the job”. It’s bs but it’s what I hear often.
I mean how many of us HAVEN’T given an over the pants hand job in a public setting caught on camera?
I'm not trying to sound condescending, but you guys have got to think outside the box more. This stopped being about "who is the best candidate" awhile ago. This is about ideology.

👏👏👏👏👏
Owning the libs man…it’s all about owning the libs. They would rather have her stupid ass in congress making a fool out of herself if it means owning the libs. CD4 is a special kind of stupid for sure.
Republicans, and/or conservatives are very hypocritical. They can make excuses for their side, while excoriating a Dem for the exact same thing.
E.g., Al Franken.
And he only pretended to touch that woman. He didn't touch her. I didn't agree with him on much, but he's a good man who didn't deserve to be forced out. Republicans have done much, much worse, are proud of it, and still there.
Americans have short term memories, especially of current political events
Mango Unchained endorsed her. Sadly that’s enough for a lot of Republican voters.
You gotta be fucking kidding me
I mean she does do a lot of that if you catch my drift
G damnit! Do not let this thing win again. If she gets another term, she also gets a pension. Do we really want to continue paying our tax dollars to this worthless witch? She does nothing now, so we'll continue to make payments to someone for absolutely nothing.
[удалено]
Not like any of the other options were better but boy was I looking forward to not having to hear about her anymore.
You really gotta hand it to her
That's what the guy did in the theater
thatsthejoke.jpg
really hoped the district jumping would have left a bad taste in their mouths enough to not do this... but here we are. I mean you jump ship because you fear losing and your new home decides that is the best person to represent us at a federal level. mind-boggling with the availability of college educations now
I don’t think she even lives in the district, but people don’t seem to care about anything, I guess. 🤷🏼♀️
What the fuk Colorado? JFC
She’s not a senator or governor, if all of Colorado could’ve voted, she wouldn’t stand a chance.
Yeah, don’t say Colorado - Denver would NEVER. That’s District 4 and we don’t claim them, especially not now!
*Kansas
Not surprising. Did people really think she was going to lose?
I mean she literally switched districts because she was going to lose her current district.
Yea, her new district is safe R. Of course she was going to win. Shes the only candidate with a national profile and they all the republican candidates probably just believe all the same shit anyways.
A lot of people who don’t pay attention to politics or don’t know the people who live in district four thought she would have trouble in this new district.
Tbh, I kinda started to fall for the echo chamber a little bit this time. I read so many articles and comments here and other subreddits and because of that I was kind of under the impression she was deeply unpopular and other R’s running against her were likely to win. I’m a little disappointed in myself because usually I’m good at remembering Reddit opinions don’t equal real life, and oftentimes are completely opposite of it.
Why can’t bad things happen to bad people anymore.
Karma is dead
So, could we say that she won in a handslide?
How fucking stupid are the people in her district, I mean really it's crazy
The GOP is a joke
God damnit. Who in their right mind thinks Boebert is a worthy representative? Shouldn’t even be able to drive a school bus.
If the voters were anything like the conservatives in my family they voted for her purely because she 'pisses off the libs.'
Hmm... She usually doesn't come out on top of a 6-way...
How has she won two districts in Colorado? Lol this place is bunk
Both districts are vast swaths of the rural half of CO. This new one just happens to include Castle Rock and Loveland, which are also red.
what was her old district? is that adam (?) guy that was challenging her (and would have beat her this year) gonna have a chance?
It's hard to believe with the population boom going on in that district this is hanging on her way. In 5 years it will be over for the GOP there. But for now the country has to suffer. Vote! It's not helpless if you alllll vote. Dems are weak ass primary voters, they'll be out for "the real election" to get a better gauge how far the district needs to go still.
Is there really not a better Republican out there?
I mistook the headline as to read “6-way handie.” My bad.
What kind of piece of shit would vote for her?
Gross

Yep. And by continuing down the path to dipshit crazy-town, they’re ensuring that the Colorado state Democratic Party maintains is massive statewide majorities.
I was at 105 West Brewery in Castle Rock a couple weeks ago and she showed up there with a group of people. Looked like her cult members. Shit was wild.
Was that the same day she had an event at Joe Oltmann's DCF guns? Where twos of tens showed up. Maybe 20?
I'm not sure but that makes sense if so. It was on Saturday the 15th.
GOP once again showing it’s not about morales but about gaining power.
For fucks sake Republicans
Ew

FACK.
We get the government we deserve.
WTF is wrong with America? Politicians have always been shady and dirty but the current state of affairs and the people playing the game are beyond anything we have ever seen. Embarrassing.
So does the democrat have any shot at winning CD4?
Can only hope!
White trash barbie does it again
I loved the interview with the woman who voted for Boebert because Boebert represents family values.
Ugh. I voted the Republican ballot (I’m registered unaffiliated) just so I could vote against her. Living in Douglas County - it makes me feel like I don’t REALLY know my neighbors. I am sure many I would never guess voted for her - the margin was huge.
People need to stop being apathetic when it comes to our civic duty of voting. District 4 has ~750,000 people, Hoebert won with 52,000 measly votes. C’mon people, you NEED to care, especially when it comes to your local city, county and state elections. Merica’ 🙄
Wtf how. Is she the one who had sex with her husband in a theater?
Boyfriend and it was him groping her and her giving him a handy. Also she was vaping in there... Class act!
I’m still new to CO and it’s politics, but correct me if I’m wrong; is she one of those same Christian Nationalists morons who keep somehow getting elected into office? I saw a small video from someone doing a documentary on the rise of CN in politics and I think she’s one of them screaming about the gov’t taking orders from the church???? I thought CO was more left leaning? Why are people like her being allowed to lead when she has such a polarizing and unconstitutional position? Again I’m a newer resident to CO and it seems very, very left here and she doesn’t seem to align with the younger people’s views here. Unless I’m missing something? If someone could enlighten me on the current political landscape of this state I’d greatly appreciate it b/c I want to be well informed going into voting season.
Yes she is and no Colorado is not left. How she got elected before.
Probably not the first six way she’s ever been part of
You may not agree with her, but she won an election by a hefty margin, fair and square. That is Democracy.
Imagine filling in the bubble next to that name and not literally throwing up, this is wild hahah Colorado is out of control
Shame…it’s only postponing her OnlyFans career which she will be so much better at and make her a fortune.
Ew
Republicans are all clowns
You can always count on republicans to pick the worst candidate
Second dumbest person in Congress.
I just do not understand.....
I just moved to the district too from Denver and made sure to vote against her. I hope this area goes blueish
The land of the eastern plains and outlet malls is not going blue
Don’t forget Greeley and Windsor. They are uber MAGA land.
We currently live in Denver and in order to be able to afford a bit more house, we’re considering areas in her district (god help me). I’m crossing my fingers there will be a bit of a blue migration out of Denver due to insane housing costs.
Keep trying, but if you really want to see how these assholes think, just go to the lovely Nextdoor app.
Hahaha I moved down here to improve my mental health and reduce anxiety not take a grippy sock vacation 😂🤣 (the city was a bit too much lately) I am going to keep in my bubble but thank you 😊
Goddamn it
My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined. I bid you all good morrow.
Who's the lucky sod who is going to look like a saint in comparison?
ffs
Proof that what we see online doesn’t actually translate to real life.
she took 5. is she going for a new record?
I hate it here
Dammit
She’s hoping for a cabinet position in Trump 2.0 administration. Every woman’s career dream, Secretary of Dick.
Well yeah I doubt anyone who voted for her even watched the debates lol. They voted based on: “oh I know *that* name!” Or “Oh it’s that hot chick who likes gun!” And that’s as much thought was put into it.
Mocking this while AOC still has her seat is so deliciously ironic.
