Republican Congresswoman Lauren Boebert is seeking out cash infusions for her re-election as the latest poll numbers show she's trailing 14 points behind Democratic opponent Ike McCorkle.
According to a survey conducted by McCorkle's camp, the veteran U.S. Marine is leading Boebert 41% to 27% in the fight for Colorado's 4th Congressional District. The rest are undecided.
The latest numbers have the incumbent representative asking the public for last-minute donations to her campaign.
"My primary is less than one month away," Boebert wrote on X Thursday. "The establishment does NOT want me to keep fighting for you and to keep fighting to expose the corruption in our system. Will you help me defeat their dark money today by chipping in whatever you can?"
Ike accused voters of being "fed up" with Boebert's "do-nothing politics."
"Let's finish the job together," he wrote in a post on X, acknowledging his double-digit lead.
Boebert, a vocal supporter of former President Donald Trump, is a pro-life mom to four boys and a gun rights activist, according to her bio.
Earlier this month, she came to Trump's defense offering explanations for his courtroom appearance as many critics claimed he was dozing off during his criminal trial.
"But if he is sleeping, he certainly looks pretty while he sleeps. Maybe it's an endearing moment of prayer, though," Boebert previously explained.
McCorkle, also a parent of four, has campaigned on the platform of gun control and women's rights.
