Rep. Lauren Boebert, a far-right Republican from Colorado, and Democrat Adam Frisch are in a race that is too close to call. A mandatory recount is triggered if the margin is equal to or less than half a percent of the leading candidate’s total.
“You know, we’re leaving the Capitol and we’re going back to my office and we get in an elevator and I see a Capitol Police officer running to the elevator,” Boebert told the crowd at an event in her district last November. “I see fret all over his face, and he’s reaching, and the door’s shutting, like I can’t open it, like what’s happening. I look to my left, and there she is. Ilhan Omar. And I said, ‘Well, she doesn’t have a backpack, we should be fine.
“When they came home, many of the world’s fittest and best trained warriors were never the same. Headaches. Numbness. Dizziness,” Biden said. “A cancer that would put them in a flag-draped coffin. I know. One of those soldiers was my son, Major Beau Biden.”“Thirteen of them!” Boebert yelled out, referring to the U.S. soldiers who were killed in the American withdrawal from Afghanistan. She was booed and shushed by others.
