MODERATORS
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold (D) slammed Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) over her decision to switch districts for the 2024 election cycle, calling the move “blatant self-preservation.”
She has failed to deliver for Coloradans on the western slope on issues that matter to them,” Griswold said in an MSNBC interview.
Moving to the 4th District avoids a difficult general election rematch with likely Democratic candidate Adam Frisch, who has significantly out-fundraised Boebert so far in the campaign.
But Griswold said even a more conservative seat doesn’t necessarily mean she’ll be back in Congress.
The chair of the Colorado GOP also criticized Boebert’s switch Thursday, saying the party “didn’t think it was the best move.”
“Time will tell whether or not we’re right, but I think she’s got a serious challenge on our hands trying to explain to the voters of [Colorado’s 4th District] why she thought it was necessary to leave [Colorado’s 3rd District] and have a better chance at keeping her seat in Congress,” party chair Dave Williamson said.
