Democrat Eileen Laubacher defeated Rep. Lauren Boebert in Colorado’s 4th Congressional District by a margin of less than 1%, ending Boebert’s three terms representing Colorado in Congress.
The district covers Colorado’s eastern plains. Laubacher, a retired two-star Navy rear admiral who deployed to Afghanistan, also served on the National Security Council during the Biden administration. She registered as a Democrat in 2025.
“I’m honored by the trust the people of Colorado’s fourth district have placed in me,” Laubacher said.
Boebert moved into the 4th District in 2024. During her time in Congress, she called for release of the Epstein files and later condemned the attack on the U.S. Capitol.
She also denied allegations involving sexual relationships with three staffers, describing the allegations as politically motivated.
The president vetoed a Boebert-sponsored measure that would have financed a drinking-water project in the district. The legislation had cleared both the House and Senate without opposition.
“Nothing says ‘America First’ like denying clean drinking water to 50,000 people in south-east Colorado,” Boebert said of the veto.
