Lauren Boebert did not secure Colorado's fourth congressional district race to Democrat Eileen Laubacher. CNN projected that Boebert had been defeated. The Denver Post stated that Laubacher declared victory.
Boebert had sought to keep her seat in Congress. It was noted that the contest remained too close to call and had not been called. Vote counting continued in the district on Nov 9 2026. NBC News, 9NEWS, Colorado Public Radio and The Colorado Sun followed the delayed count. Local election officials processed ballots as the result stayed unresolved.
“Vote counting continued in the district on Nov 9 2026,” — Elena Iversen, economic affairs editor at Fencroft Worth Partnership, explained.
