Lauren Boebert\u2019s (R-Colo.) competitive House district race from \u201clean Republican\u201d to \u201ctoss up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cook Political Report editor David Wasserman said the change in the rating comes after recent campaign finance disclosures revealed Boebert\u2019s challenger raised more than three times what Boebert raised in the second quarter.\u00a0<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr1_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>Boebert, a conservative firebrand, faces what was already sure to be a high-stakes rematch with former Aspen City Councilman Adam Frisch, a Democrat who lost to Boebert in 2022 by a mere 546 votes. The close race triggered an automatic recount, but Frisch conceded to Boebert before the recount was complete.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the latest second quarter campaign filings, covering the months of April through June, Frisch raised\u00a0an impressive $2.6 million, which is more than three times Boebert\u2019s roughly $818,000.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Frisch\u2019s campaign said earlier this month that his second-quarter fundraising numbers broke the record \u201cfor the largest quarterly fundraising for a U.S. House challenger in the year before an election, excluding special elections and self-funded campaigns.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the first quarter, too, Frisch outraised Boebert. He raised $1.7 million, according to his finance disclosure, and Boebert raised about $764,000.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Wasserman noted that the shift in the district\u2019s rating comes as Boebert has not made any clear attempt to moderate her positions; Frisch presents himself as the moderate alternative to the Trump ally.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNot only has Boebert avoided taking any steps to moderate her image since coming within 546 votes of losing to former Aspen Councilman Adam Frisch in 2022, Frisch outraised her by a massive $2.6 million to $810,000 in the second quarter thanks to an avalanche of small-dollar donations,\u201d Wasserman wrote in his analysis, adding that Boebert\u2019s recent charge to block the annual defense reauthorization bill over <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social<\/a> wedge issues is likely to give Frisch leverage.\u00a0<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr2_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>Wasserman noted, however, that despite his strong fundraising figures, Frisch still has a difficult battle ahead, as national Republican groups will no longer give Frisch \u201ca free pass\u201d and instead, \u201clikely to invest heavily to redefine the self-styled moderate as a limousine liberal out of step with the Western Slope.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wasserman also said the 2024 race is likely to be determined by the 80,000 voters who did not vote in the 2022 midterms and who skew independent. Wasserman said they \u201cmay be more open to Donald Trump than those who showed up in the midterms.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Cook Political Report analysis moved four other races along with Boebert\u2019s this week. Rep. Josh Harder\u2019s (D-Calif.) district moved from \u201csolid Democrat\u201d to \u201clikely Democrat,\u201d and Rep. Vicente Gonzalez\u2019s (D-Texas) district moved from \u201clikely Democrat\u201d to \u201clean Democrat.\u201d<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr3_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>Rep. Ken Calvert\u2019s (R-Calif.) district moved from \u201clean Republican\u201d to \u201ctoss up,\u201d and Rep. Greg Landsman\u2019s (D-Ohio) district moved from \u201ctoss up\u201d to \u201clean Democrat.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Copyright 2023 Nexstar Media Inc. All rights reserved.
