Lauren Boebert will find out Tuesday if her move from Colorado’s Western Slope to the Republican stronghold of the 4th Congressional District on the Eastern Plains will pay off as she tries to land a third term in Congress. Results will start rolling in after the polls close at 7 p.m. Also on the ballot are Frank Atwood of the Approval Voting Party; Hannah Goodman of the Libertarian Party; and Paul Noel Fiorino of the Unity Party. ELECTION RESULTS: Live Colorado election results for the 2024 election Boebert’s defection from the 3rd Congressional District created a stir in a part of the state where the Republican candidate is usually a shoo-in.

Calvarese, 38, who recently returned to Highlands Ranch where she grew up, has called out the Beetlejuice incident as well as Boebert’s vote against expanding health care coverage for veterans who were exposed to toxic burn pits while deployed. The Democrat, who won a three-way race in the primary election, called her challenge of Boebert “absolutely winnable,” citing a poll released in May showing nearly half the respondents with an unfavorable view of the Republican. However, Boebert, despite being called a carpetbagger for switching to the 4th District, defeated five opponents in the GOP primary, winning three times as many votes as the next-closest candidate.
