"Ken Buck's Departure Sparks Republican Committee's Search for Replacement, Posing Challenge to Boebert's Campaign"

A panel of Colorado Republicans will select a candidate to likely serve out the final months of U.S. Rep. Ken Buck’s term, potentially posing a challenge to Rep. Lauren Boebert’s bid for another term in Congress. The decision could have farther-reaching consequences, as the selected candidate would run in two separate races for the same seat until the June election, gaining greater notoriety and fundraising opportunities. Boebert has criticized the move as interference, while her opponents see it as an opportunity to make up ground in the race.
