Democratic Trisha Calvarese announced Tuesday that she will not continue her campaign seeking a rematch against U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert in Colorado’s 4th Congressional District.

Calvarese said in a post on X that she will suspend her campaign and congratulated Eileen Laubacher, the leading Democrat in the race, who will likely face the incumbent Boebert, a Windsor Republican, in the November election.

“We showed the progress a grassroots Democrat can make without compromising fundamental values,” Calvarese said in the post. “I will continue to fight for the American middle class and the dignity of human work. The status quo cannot hold. But the future will be shaped by those who step forward to meet it and I will continue to do that work.”

Calvarese did not respond to a request for more information from Newsline ahead of publication.

Since launching her campaign last year, Laubacher has established a substantial fundraising advantage over her rivals, raising more money than every other candidate of either party in the race combined. In a statement, Laubacher applauded Calvarese’s energy and persistence.

“Over multiple cycles, she has helped elevate the visibility of this race and engage people across the district in meaningful ways, and her willingness to step forward in this race takes real courage,” Laubacher said. “It’s time to turn the corner and focus fully on what comes next and what matters most: defeating Lauren Boebert in November.”

The Democratic assembly for the 4th District is scheduled for Thursday, after county assemblies occurred throughout March. A third Democratic candidate, John Padora, is also on the assembly ballot, but with the vast majority of delegates already awarded to Laubacher, it is likely that she will be unopposed in the June primary.

Calvarese sued the Colorado Democratic Party in March, claiming that Laubacher was ineligible to participate in the Democratic caucus and assembly process because she was not registered as a Democrat for at least 12 consecutive months. A Denver judge did not find good cause to issue the orders the lawsuit requested barring Laubacher from the assembly process.

Laubacher, a retired Navy rear admiral and former National Security Council official, registered as a Democrat on March 27, 2025. Calvarese’s lawsuit argued Laubacher should not be eligible to participate in a district assembly that was initially scheduled for March 26.

Boebert beat Calvarese in the 2024 election by 12 percentage points. The 4th District, which includes most of Douglas County and the Eastern Plains, is the safest Republican-held district in the state.

Crypto News: Donald Trump-Aligned Fed Governor To Speed Up Fed Rate Cuts?

The post Crypto News: Donald Trump-Aligned Fed Governor To Speed Up Fed Rate Cuts? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In recent crypto news, Stephen Miran swore in as the latest Federal Reserve governor on September 16, 2025, slipping into the board’s last open spot right before the Federal Open Market Committee kicks off its two-day rate discussion. Traders are betting heavily on a 25-basis-point trim, which would bring the federal funds rate down to 4.00%-4.25%, based on CME FedWatch Tool figures from September 15, 2025. Miran, who’s been Trump’s top economic advisor and a supporter of his trade ideas, joins a seven-member board where just three governors come from Democratic picks, according to the Fed’s records updated that same day. Crypto News: Miran’s Background and Quick Path to Confirmation The Senate greenlit Miran on September 15, 2025, with a tight 48-47 vote, following his nomination on September 2, 2025, as per a recent crypto news update. His stint runs only until January 31, 2026, stepping in for Adriana D. Kugler, who stepped down in August 2025 for reasons not made public. Miran earned his economics Ph.D. from Harvard and worked at the Treasury back in Trump’s first go-around. Afterward, he moved to Hudson Bay Capital Management as an economist, then looped back to the White House in December 2024 to head the Council of Economic Advisers. There, he helped craft Trump’s “reciprocal tariffs” approach, aimed at fixing trade gaps with China and the EU. He wouldn’t quit his White House gig, which irked Senator Elizabeth Warren at the September 7, 2025, confirmation hearings. That limited time frame means Miran gets to cast a vote straight away at the FOMC session starting September 16, 2025. The full board now features Chair Jerome H. Powell (Trump pick, term ends 2026), Vice Chair Philip N. Jefferson (Biden, to 2036), and folks like Lisa D. Cook (Biden, to 2028) and Michael S. Barr…
