CO-04: Boebert's top Dem challengers set fundraising, spending pace heading into election year
As multiple candidates across Colorado have demonstrated in recent years, challenging US Rep. Lauren Boebert could be the most lucrative campaign fundraising pitch yet discovered in the state.
For the umpteenth time, Democrats hoping to unseat the Republican congresswoman have buried the state’s other U.S. House candidates’ fundraising totals for the most recent quarter — and finished with many times as much money in the bank as Boebert, who is seeking a fourth term this year.
The latest installment in the familiar tale comes with a couple of wrinkles, however. This time, two Democrats vying to run against Boebert powered to the front of the state’s congressional fundraising pack, and both reported unusually heavy spending to get there.
Boebert, the senior Republican member of the state’s congressional delegation — and unquestionably the biggest national celebrity among Colorado’s current crop of politicians — moved from the Western Slope to the Eastern Plains two years ago, from the seat she nearly lost in 2022 into the deep red 4th Congressional District, which she won by almost a dozen points in 2024.
