Voters are heading to the polls for the Colorado primary Tuesday. With races all around the state, one with potentially widespread implications is taking place in Colorado’s Third Congressional District.

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), endorsed by former President Donald Trump, is trying to hold onto her seat. But keeping her office in Congress is not happening without a challenge.

Her primary opponent, Republican State Senator Don Coram, touts himself as a legislator, not an instigator.

“He’s respected pretty broadly within the Republican Party and even by many Democrats who’ve worked with him over the years. And he’s generally considered a pretty serious legislator and a serious politician,” said Seth Masket, a professor at the University of Denver.

Is Colorado a state where RATs can cross over and vote in GOP primaries?

Was at a conference in Colorado last June, and Lauren Boebert did the invocation before dinner - I’ve never heard anyone present the Gospel message in a prayer before a meal - it was pretty awesome!

Sounds like code for a tool of the 'deep state.'

We'll find out which the people in the district prefer.

Yes. And the Democrats have spent more money on the Republican primary than the Republicans have.

If someone is “respected” by Rats, they are not a republican. I want someone who is despised by the Rats.

An endorsement by a Rat professor of a “republican” candidate. Says enough.

“Yes. And the Democrats have spent more money on the Republican primary than the Republicans have.”

This definitely is not some last minute wing-and-a-prayer grassroots effort by the Democrats. It has been a well-organized and very well-funded Democrat dirty trick which the Democrat media has spent months promoting and encouraging; they have REALLY ramped up the publicity over the past 2 weeks. There is a significant chance that they will succeed.

If their dirty trick doesn’t succeed tonight, the Rats get a second chance in November. Sore loser Coram (assuming he actually loses tonight) and other RINOs will do whatever they can to help the Democrat candidate.

This is a Republican district (R+8 now) but it is NOT a conservative district overall — they are outnumbered by Democrats and RINOs combined — and Boebert has an extremely tough fight on her hands to get re-elected.

A damning indictment if ever there was one.

That the establishment does not consider Mrs. Boebert a “serious politician” is all the more reason to vote for her.
