Rep. Ken Buck's early departure from the U.S. House prompted a special election to fill the remainder of his term.
FILE - Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., a member of the House Freedom Caucus, speaks during a news conference, July 14, 2023, on Capitol Hill in Washington. A panel of Colorado Republicans will select a candidate Thursday, March 28, 2024, who will likely serve out the final months of U.S. Rep. Ken Bucks term and could pose a challenge to Boeberts bid for another term in Congress. .
Boebert said in a recent statement that the move was interference: “The establishment concocted a swampy backroom deal to try to rig an election.” While it would be hard for the other candidates to match Boebert’s national conservative clout, the special election shakeup could give one of them an opportunity to make up some ground.
