Lauren Boebert mocked by Colorado newspaper cartoon for polling disaster
The congresswoman struggled to win over voters in her new district, according to a straw poll, a Colorado newspaper mocks her in a cartoon.
After a straw poll showed Representative Lauren Boebert's district switch-up was struggling to win over voters, The Colorado Sun published a cartoon on Friday mocking her reelection efforts.
Boebert, a Republican, announced in December that she would be running for reelection to the U.S. House of Representatives in Colorado's 4th Congressional District instead of the 3rd District where she has held office since 2021.
Despite her defending the move by saying it's the "right decision for those who support our conservative movement," it has been widely viewed as an attempt to avoid lower reelection odds in the 3rd District where she's facing a notable primary challenge from Republican Jeff Hurd and an even more fraught general election challenge from Democrat Adam Frisch.
In addition, Boebert was recorded as the fifth most popular candidate in a straw poll taken after a debate in Fort Lupton, Colorado's eighth congressional district, on January 25. The straw poll taken of 100 Republican voters saw Boebert pick up just 12 votes, behind Logan County Commissioner Jerry Sonnenberg, who topped the poll with 22 votes.
The Colorado Sun, a major online newspaper based in Denver, on Friday published a cartoon by editorial cartoonist Jim Morrissey titled, "How to explain Lauren Boebert's straw poll finish?"
The cartoon takes aim at the congresswoman as it features Boebert holding the straw poll, while saying, "Stop the straw poll steal!"
The cartoon for the curious.
That's a really long article for one panel comic.
Is this seriously and article about a cartoon that doesn’t sound very critical, with no image of the cartoon or link to it? What awful click bait journalism. How so many upvotes? I assume nobody else is reading it, but just upvoting due to schadenfreusde?
If MAGA hadn’t come along she’d be pulling shifts and johns at a truck stop.
Damn girl, do you shit with that ass?
No really this is the one who pooped herself right?
Evidently even MAGA has a limit on electing stupid.........It kind if shocks me to learn that.
There only appears to be a limit on electing stupid women. Stupid men can and will continue to be elected.
I think they might be reaching that limit also. But it's hard to tell honestly.
This is the best summary I could come up with:

The congresswoman has also supported the "Stop the Steal" movement in 2020, a conservative campaign and protest that the 2020 election was stolen via widespread fraud, a claim Trump has often said without any evidence.
Former New York assistant attorney generaland Donald Trump critic Tristan Snell said on X, formerly Twitter, on Tuesday that the congresswoman was facing problems because she "abandoned her congressional district because she was going to lose."
