Final Colorado redistricting map seems to have bolstered Boebert's chances

[DavidDvorkin]

Democratic State Sen. Kerry Donovan is suspending her campaign’s fundraising efforts to unseat Republican Lauren Boebert in Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District, she told The Denver Post on Monday.

Part of her message to supporters:

It goes without saying that families here deserve better representation than Lauren Boebert — and the fact that this new map gives her a leg-up on her competition despite how radically out-of-step her views are should give everyone involved in this process serious doubts.

3. Democrats really screwed the pooch on these redistricting commissions

Unilaterally disarming in states like Colorado, Virginia, California and NY….while Republicans are going to do what the hell they want in Texas, Florida, Georgia and North Carolina.

2. The article still sounds positive for Democrats in state, and for Boebert's defeat.

4. I think people like Boebert

Is good for democrats. These people look like jerks.

5. Wasn't this anticipated to go the other way?

What happened?

7. I don't think it was expected to go either way

The idea is that it's not driven by party politics, so it could end up favoring either party or being neutral.

I still think that redistricting should be done this way, but it should happen in every state.
