CO-04: Trisha Calvarese (D) drops out of race to challenge Boebert

Democratic Trisha Calvarese announced Tuesday that she will not continue her campaign seeking a rematch against U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert in Colorado’s 4th Congressional District.

Calvarese said in a post on X that she will suspend her campaign and congratulated Eileen Laubacher, the leading Democrat in the race, who will likely face the incumbent Boebert, a Windsor Republican, in the November election.

“We showed the progress a grassroots Democrat can make without compromising fundamental values,” Calvarese said in the post. “I will continue to fight for the American middle class and the dignity of human work. The status quo cannot hold. But the future will be shaped by those who step forward to meet it and I will continue to do that work.”

Calvarese did not respond to a request for more information from Newsline ahead of publication.
