This is the best summary I could come up with:


She remains hounded by the scandals which have dominated headlines for months: a messy separation with a husband that led to an embarrassingly public incident, as well as her unglamorous removal from a theater performance of Beetlejuice after she and her date were caught vaping and engaging in lewd acts.

Though one poll of the sparsely-surveyed district from Kaplan Strategies in early June showed her as the frontrunner, an equal share of voters were undecided — meaning the race could be anyone’s game.

Reporting of the race has generally indicated that two of Boebert’s six challengers, Jerry Sonnenberg and Richard Holtorf, are her best-positioned opponents in terms of statewide political support, fundraising and grassroots interest.

He said that he planned to be on the ground meeting voters — shepherded around the state in one of his several big-rig trucks, hauling a cattle carrier emblazoned with Trump signs — until the day of the primary.

Holtorf contended that Boebert would go the same way as another scandal-plagued, camera-obsessed former member of the House: Madison Cawthorn, who flamed out in 2022 after angering GOP colleagues in Washington DC and ending up the subject of a leaked nude video.

Experts within the state have echoed the speculation that the inability of Boebert’s challengers to narrow down the field could end up being what sends the congresswoman back to the House.


The original article contains 1,017 words, the summary contains 227 words. Saved 78%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

Kick her out already. Although being a standout in this party full of ignorant Imbeciles is quite the feat

Cawthorn managed it and got the boot. But there are still so many more that deserve the same treatment.

I’m assuming that was just payback for talking too much about other cons.

Phrasing! That headline sounds like something Tobias would say, for example:

“I’m afraid I prematurely shot my wad on what was supposed to be a dry run, if you will, so I’m afraid I have something of a mess on my hands.”

Well then, guess she’d better start handing out reasons for the voters to choose her.
