UPDATE: Democrat Adam Frisch is poised to upset Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert in CO-3, based on a 9NEWS analysis of remaining ballots, which are largely in counties where Frisch holds strong leads. #copolitics

The Boebert-Frisch race is tied 50-50% but the bulk of ballots yet to be counted, per AP, are in Pitkin County (80% counted, currently Frisch +58, not a typo), Pueblo County (91.6% counted, currently Frisch +9.6), and Garfield County (90% counted, currently Frisch +13.6).

9NEWS is told the GOP stronghold of Mesa County only has 300 uncounted ballots. The only county clearly in the Boebert column that has a significant percentage of uncounted ballots is tiny Otero County (76.5% counted, currently Boebert +14.4).

In Pueblo County alone, 9NEWS is told there are 6,000 uncounted ballots. Those ballots may not be counted tonight as election workers are given time to eat and rest.

Military/overseas ballots will be accepted and signature issues can be cured until Nov 16. There will be an automatic recount under state law if the margin of victory is less than 0.5% of the winner's total votes. Any campaign may pay for a recount outside that margin.
