"Colorado GOP Rep. Ken Buck Resigns, Citing 'Swampy' Special Election and Party Turmoil"

Rep. Lauren Boebert criticizes the scheduling of a special election to fill the seat of Rep. Ken Buck, who is resigning, on the same day as the competitive GOP primary, calling it "swampy" and potentially confusing for voters. Boebert, who recently moved to the district, is in a hotly-contested primary and faces accusations of carpetbagging. The special election will be decided by local party officials, and Boebert prefers a candidate not currently running in the primary to avoid giving any candidate an advantage.
