Democrat Adam Frisch conceded to incumbent Republican Rep. Lauren Boebart in their race for Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District.
Despite the concession, the race will likely head to an automatic recount. As of now, Boebart leads by only around 550 votes, which is 0.16%.
The race won’t become official until the state finishes the recount.
From The Hill:
In a video call with reporters, Frisch said that he had called Boebert to offer his concession. He said that while the race appeared to be headed for a mandatory recount, “the likelihood of this recount changing more than a handful of votes is very small.”“We are not asking for this recount. It is one that the citizens of Colorado mandate through our election system,” he said, telling supporters not to donate to his campaign for the recount effort.“Please save your money for your groceries, your rent, your children,” he said.
