A gun-themed restaurant helped Republican firebrand Rep. Lauren Boebert to fame. At the unrelated Shooters in the new district she hopes to win – where she’s running as a carpetbagger – there hasn’t been the same level of Boebert talk or tourism ... yet.

    Polling earlier this month placed Boebert with a 35-point lead over five other candidates, though 40% of voters were undecided at the time

    And going deeper than that, the 35 point lead is only above the other R candidates, so I’m thinking this is a name recognition thing, but I’m not very familiar with the politics of rural Colorado.

    Also, of the 40% of undecideds, they asked them if they’d even consider voting for her and 60% of them said no.

    The latest from 538 has the D candidate ahead of her 41% to 27% for Bobbert.

    I recommend you check out the full poll results here. There are many more insights into CO Republicans. It’s all graphs, so it’s not dry reading, just the good stuff.

    45% say Trumps’s conviction makes them “Much more likely” to vote for him and 33% say it has made no change to their plans to vote.

    71% say hell no to taking Palestinian refugees into the US.

    41% say immigration has ruined their town.

    It’s 28 questions in all.
