CO-03: Congressional District candidates are neck in neck in the final days
With six days left before Election Day, national polls show the Colorado 3rd Congressional District is a tight race, with Democrat Diane Mitsch Bush leading Republican Lauren Boebert by 1 point in FiveThirtyEight’s poll released Tuesday.
After almost two million Colorado residents have cast early ballots due to COVID-19 concerns, Mitsch Bush said she is proud of the “strong coalition” she’s built. In a written statement, Mitsch Bush, a resident of Steamboat Springs, attributed her early success to “talking about the kitchen table issues that matter the most” in the district.
“This race is going to be close,” she added. “That’s why I’m fighting for every single vote until Election Day, and I believe that we will win.”
The Rifle business owner also said she has little faith in the accuracy of national polls.
“If the polls were right, then Hillary Clinton would be president right now,” Boebert added.
According to data from the Center for Responsive Politics, Mitsch Bush has raised almost double what Boebert has, with 25.96% of the Democrat’s total $4,161,666 raised coming from small individual contributions, 69.95% from large individual contributions, 4.42% from political action committees and 0.18% from self-financing. Mitsch Bush has about $230,000 left in her campaign coffers as of Wednesday.
