Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold (D) slammed Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) over her decision to switch districts for the 2024 election cycle, calling the move “blatant self-preservation.”
Boebert announced Wednesday that she will not seek reelection in the 3rd District and instead move to the 4th District, currently held by retiring Rep. Ken Buck (R-Colo.).
“She knows that she has failed the citizens of her district. She has failed to deliver for Coloradans on the western slope on issues that matter to them,” Griswold said in an MSNBC interview. “She has failed to deliver legislatively. There’s scandal after scandal after scandal.”
“I do think this is her trying to hold on to power,” she added.
The most important sentence of the article. She can switch districts if she wants. Can she win a primary?
I think she does more good for Democrats being in office as she exemplifies the absurdity of the GOP, however any other primary challenger just needs to make ads saying, “she abandoned her last district; she’ll abandon you too.”
Probably not. There are plenty of people running that are as far right as her that don’t come with the baggage of being a national embarrassment.
Although to the MAGA wing, things that the rest of us consider embarrassments are seen as positives, so who knows anymore?
