Lauren Boebert, R-Colo, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/rep-boeberts-apparent-midterm-victory-makes-liberal-pundits-eat-their-words\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">has won her bid for re-election<\/a> against Democrat Adam Frisch, an automatic recount confirmed Monday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"speakable\">The race was decided by 546 votes, fitting a pattern in the 2022 midterm elections when strong supporters of former President Trump finished with closer-than-expected margins or lost elections in swing districts.<\/p>\n<p>Secretary of State Jena Griswold announced the results Monday evening. Frisch gained a total of four votes in the recount, not nearly enough to catch up and overtake Boebert&#8217;s lead. An Aspen City Councilman, Frisch <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/colorado-election-results-boebert-race-likely-heading-recount\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">had already conceded the race<\/a> last month after the first tally put him just under the state\u2019s margin for a mandatory recount.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The red wave has begun!&#8221; Boebert <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/laurenboebert\/status\/1590157437293965313\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">declared on Twitter<\/a> heading into the Nov. 8 election. However, as the results came in, it became clear there would be more of a red trickle. Though the GOP was favored to win Colorado&#8217;s 3rd Congressional District, with Fox News&#8217; Power Rankings listing the race as &#8220;likely Republican&#8221; as of Nov. 1, Boebert ran behind her Frisch most of the night.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Republicans <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/mehmet-oz-calls-john-fetterman-officially-concede-pennsylvania-senate-race\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">lost several key races<\/a> they had hoped to win, frustrating their effort to recapture House and Senate majorities. When all was said and done, the GOP emerged with a razor-thin 222-seat majority in the House while Democrats gained a seat in the Senate. However, the Democratic Party&#8217;s would-be 51-seat Senate majority was unexpectedly snatched away by Arizona Senator Kyrsten Sinema&#8217;s decision to switch and register as an independent.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/kyrsten-sinema-becoming-independent-described-gut-punch-democrats\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>KYRSTEN SINEMA&#8217;S SWITCH TO INDEPENDENT DESCRIBED AS \u2018GUT PUNCH\u2019 TO DEMOCRATS: \u2018NO WIGGLE ROOM\u2019<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"image-ct inline\">\n<div class=\"m\"><source media=\"(max-width: 767px)\" \/><source media=\"(min-width: 767px) and (max-width: 1023px)\" \/><source media=\"(min-width: 1024px) and (max-width: 1279px)\" \/><source media=\"(min-width: 1280px)\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/640\/320\/GettyImages-1401782496.jpg?ve=1&#038;tl=1\" alt=\"Rep.
