That's a bigger tally than many Senate candidates took in during the same period.

Democrat Adam Frisch's campaign reported a massive third quarter haul of nearly $3.4 million — more than many nationally touted Democratic Senate candidates — as he seeks to win a rematch with Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) next year.

Frisch's campaign said the average donation was less than $32 and reported $4.3 million cash on hand. He lost to the incumbent by a little more than 500 votes in 2022 as he gears up for another shot at the sprawling congressional seat.

this man was so humble and so accommodating after his loss the last time around, he showed his worth as one who believes in democracy, elections, and the rule of law. he's a good bet to unseat handjob barbie this next go around.

I hate that that description is apt for an elected official.

I'd call it a slam dunk. She only skated by with a couple of hundred votes last time.

This is why Boebert didn't vote to oust McCarthy. At any point in the past, she would have, as she's totally on board the trump train. She didn't in this case, since she has become vulnerable, so is trying to seem more centrist.

I don't think you'll see see Lauren around much longer,

She'll have a spot on OANN or similar. She won't disappear.

This is all she is after. It is a certain way and legal way to fame and money. She is trolling every one of you but unfortunately she is in a position where it can and does hurt every American.

I actually cannot wait for that nutjob to lose her seat. Unfortunately I'm pretty sure we're going to be stuck with MTG for a while yet.

I’m glad Boebert has a contender.

But it sure is disappointing to constantly see headlines using how much money a politician has collected as a likely measure of success. Buying your way into office is an open thing now.
