But the nail-biter race showed the renowned conservative firebrand's combative style is wearying voters in her conservative Colorado district.

She filmed an ad of herself strolling the streets of the capital while packing her pistol, pushed to carry it on the floor of the U.S. Her razor tight margin against Frisch surprised the political establishment as much as the 2020 GOP primary defeat of a five-term congressman that helped put her in office. The nail-biter race showed the renowned conservative firebrand's combative style is wearying voters in her conservative Colorado district.

Recount confirms Boebert win in Colorado (The Hill)

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) officially clinched another term in the House on Monday after a recount confirmed her razor-thin victory in her reelection bid ...

Under state law, an automatic recount is triggered if the margin in a race is half a percentage point or less of the top vote-getter’s total. Frisch also made clear that he did not believe the recount would change the outcome. Former President Trump carried the area in 2020 by roughly 8 percentage points. Still, the race was unexpectedly close, given the heavy GOP tilt of Colorado’s 3rd District. But Frisch’s lead collapsed in the days following the election. While the narrow margin in the race triggered a mandatory recount under Colorado state law, Frisch, a conservative Democrat, conceded to Boebert last month, acknowledging that the recount was highly unlikely to swing the outcome of the contest.
