WASHINGTON (SCRIPPS NEWS GROUP) – Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert on Wednesday told journalists outside the U.S. Capitol that she does not plan to run again in 2028 for Colorado’s 4th Congressional District if her Democratic challenger Eileen Laubacher wins the closely contested race.

Boebert also pushed back on questions about whether or not she would concede.

“The votes aren’t in. So why would I concede if the votes aren’t all in?” Boebert said.

As of Wednesday, The Associated Press has not called the race, despite Laubacher declaring victory on Monday. As of Wednesday evening, Laubacher was leading with 48.79% of the votes, while Boebert had 47.91%.

“Friday we’ll have, um, hopefully everything counted, all the cured ballots in and all the military and overseas ballots in and we’ll see what those numbers are,” Boebert said.
