that's tight

 The race for CO3 (Colorado congressional district) is the closest in the country.  With more than 97% of the vote counted (320k ballots) Boebert and Frisch are separated by less than 100 votes.  Rumor has it that most of the outstanding votes will break for Boebert's way (should I make a joke about counties that like Boebert having trouble counting???---naw too easy).

CO3 has elected a Republican for the past 12 years and 24 of the past 30 years.  After last election it was redistricted to make it more red and yet and Jewish guy from Aspen is in the race against ....well Boebert.   CO3 is half the size of CO and bigger than RI and MS and VT and Maine.  It's a huge rural district with some mountain towns tossed into the mix.  If high inflation, lots of economic anxiety, super low approval ratings for Dems and Joe Biden aren't enough to give Boebert a solid win in CO3 that tells you a couple of things:

1.  Boebert sucks as a candidate

2.  Citizens are tired of her and the MAGA Trump crazy show

The silver lining of a Boebert win is 

1. she wont be around to make life miserable  in CO3 (and try to poison us with food)

2.  will give late night talk shows more excellent material  Angelenos don't get Lauren

3.  She will continue to make the GOP look horrible and motivate not crazy people to rise up against MAGA

4.  Watching her question Joe Biden during impeachment hearings would be infinitely better than watching the Broncos
