It seems Lauren Boebert has lost her race to represent Colorado in congress. At least until they scream about voting irregularities, or someone says her name three times.
About time! I moved to the midwest last year, but was in Colorado almost 20 years prior to that – I’m tired of her being a statewide embarrassment!
I did see an article asking for the over/under on when she starts her OnlyFans page. Sorry – not interested – just go away please!

She will probably file suit claiming that the fact that she lost is prima facie evidence of voter fraud.
It has been done before in Alabama by a judge that lost an election. I forget his name, but he was quite famous for a while.

Just make sure that Boebert doesn’t show up in the Morris theater for some hanky-panky.
She’s probably already on the “DO NOT ADMIT” list for every theater in Colorado.

Is she pictured with Beetlejuice as a reference to something?

Republican lawmaker Lauren Boebert was escorted out of a theatre in Denver during a performance of the musical Beetlejuice, after being accused of disruptive behaviour.
An incident report, which does not name her, says two patrons were asked to leave after complaints of vaping, singing, and causing disturbance.
Her team confirmed the incident but denied that she was vaping.
“I plead guilty to laughing and singing too loud!,” Ms Boebert said on Twitter.

Andy Borowitz has a funny column today about Boebert demanding a manual recount — a hand job — with the expectation that a hand job would bring about a happy ending. Especially one in public.

One of the many claims made by Trump on the campaign trail. was that we would be tired of winning if he got voted in. I’m not tired of winning yet. Fortunately, there are still some states counting their votes.

Bobert is proof the dedication and stupidity the far-right voters have to their party. In no sane world would this person be elected to such a position. Especially the last time she won, by then even a boob could tell she was a lowlife.

I hate to say, but wouldn’t they need a runoff because there’s a third candidate, independent Douglas Mageris with 3.3% of the vote, and neither Laubacher or Boebert have 50%+ of the votes?

Boebert appears to be the perfect MAGA representative. And this is no compliment.
(Of course, this would not prevent her and Hakeem Jeffries to vote the same on issues regarding Israel)
But before she leaves, she should do something to get implicated for corruption, otherwise my MAGA bingo card will not get full.

@9 robro, I believe that Colorado, as most states do, will declare the one getting the most votes for Congress the winner, regardless if they have 50%.
John Moralessays
Robro, easy enough to check:
(6) After a recount conducted pursuant to this section has been completed, the designated election official shall notify the governing body of the local government conducting the election of the results of the recount, shall make a certificate of election for each candidate who received the highest number of votes for an office for which a recount was conducted, and shall deliver the certificate to such candidate.
Somebody, please convince Roy More to make a renewed attempt to get into congress. We need a substitute for Boebert. The Republican choice of new House leader is a good start, but he is not weird enough.

@ ^ birgerjohansson : Be careful what you ask for, you may get it.
The problem with political jokes is sometimes they get elected.
Remember Trump was a politiucal puncline once.
Anyone else recall Modusoperandi who used to comment on Ed Brayton’s blog among others? Wonder what’s happened to them now?
