"Boebert Opts Out of Special Election, Focusing on Primary in New District Amid GOP Majority Concerns"
Rep. Lauren Boebert has decided not to run for fellow Colorado Republican Ken Buck's seat in the upcoming special election, citing concerns about further imperiling the narrow House Republican majority. Buck's resignation will trigger a June 25 special election to fill his seat, leaving the House Republicans with a slim 218-213 majority. Boebert, who currently represents the 3rd District, had been campaigning for Buck's 4th District seat but expressed disapproval of the special election, calling it a "gift to the uniparty."
