Critics of Republican Representative Lauren Boebert had something to celebrate on Thursday.

Boebert’s political rival, Adam Frisch, raised $3.4 million for his campaign in the third quarter of 2023, ratcheting up his cash on hand to $4.3 million. The fundraising was backed by more than 100,000 donations with an average of $32, according to a press release from his campaign. The announcement comes after Frisch outpaced Boebert’s fundraising 3-to-1 in the second quarter, when Boebert raised $818,000 to Frisch’s more than $2.6 million.

    It would be great to get money out of politics, but that’s not the way things are. The game must be played as it is if we are to improve the rules to be more fair and less corrupting. Current law is political money = free speech.
