It’s official: Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert ® is scared. Recent polling has shown Democratic frontrunner Adam Frisch in the lead in Boebert’s district, and now the anti-LGBTQ+ Congresswoman is pleading with voters for help.

According to the Aspen Daily News, Boebert’s campaign sent three successive emails at the end of August that acknowledged the possibility of Boebert’s defeat.

The emails were reacting to the results of a Keating Research poll that showed Frish beating Boebert in the 2024 election to represent Colorado’s Third Congressional District.

The poll showed that 50% of likely voters in the district say they will vote for Frisch, who almost beat Boebert in 2022 in the purple district, and only 48% say they’re voting for Boebert. Frisch holds a bigger advantage – 17 points – when it comes to unaffiliated voters, the group that the Frisch campaign has said it’s trying to appeal to in this election cycle. He also has a 32-point advantage with Latin voters.

A majority – 53% – of likely voters in the survey had an unfavorable view of Boebert, and only 42% had a favorable view of her. 34% had a favorable view of Frisch, while 26% viewed him unfavorably.

      I have an old phone number that used to be owned by a conservative I know. I have been getting these over the top “IT’S ALL OVER AND YOU HAVEN’T HELPED, 5X MATCH NOW!!!” texts pretty much every day of every election cycle for years now.

      Telling followers that the world is ending unless you give them your money donate to the campaign seems to be just the way they fundraise these days.

        To be fair, I get emails from Nancy Pelosi literally every day about Trump and asking for donations. I’m not sure why I haven’t unsubscribed…that shit is annoying.

          you’ll just get subscribed to other campaigns all the time anyway because those motherfuckers share/sell your information to each other.

            Seriously. Never give ANY politician your email if you don’t want a flood of emails asking for donations.

      A politician asking people to donate and vote for them? This is sooooo desperate.

      Don’t show up of you liked them, it’s already done and over with. There’s nothing that can be done.

      The wording is a little strange but it seems like that’s the voters who belong to a party and that he has a 17 point lead with independents. Wish they’d just have simple bar graphs or something when they talk poll numbers…
