Boebert’s race against Frisch in Colorado goes to recount

Associated Press  

DENVER — The Colorado Secretary of State has ordered a recount in the congressional race where Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert led Democrat Adam Frisch by just 550 votes in an unexpectedly tight race. The race garnered national attention because Boebert was largely considered a lock for reelection after redistricting made the sprawling 3rd Congressional District that covers much of western Colorado more Republican. Boebert, a Republican lightning rod and one of Congress’s staunchest supporters of former President Donald Trump, claimed victory in a tweeted video from the U.S. Capitol. In a virtual press conference announcing his concession, Frisch argued that the thin margin is its own small victory after his campaign was largely considered futile by the political establishment.
