Colorado GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert clinched her party's nomination Tuesday night for another term in the House after she ran unopposed and despite being just one of several Republicans to vote to advance the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Boebert is attempting to secure a fourth term in the House and if she wins the November general election for the Fourth District, then she will be the only GOP rebel to have helped force the release of the Epstein files remaining. Fellow GOP Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky and Nancy Mace of South Carolina will not return to the House next year.

The Republican also won the primary despite President Donald Trump's push for a challenger last month after she campaigned for Massie, who lost his primary.

"Boebert is campaigning for the Worst 'Republican' Congressman in the History of our Country, Thomas Massie, of the Great Commonwealth of Kentucky, and anybody who can be that dumb deserves a good Primary fight," Trump posted on Truth Social at the time. 

"Even though I long ago endorsed Boebert, if the right person came along, it would be my Honor to withdraw that Endorsement, and endorse a good and proper alternative," he added. "Just let me know, or announce your Candidacy, and I will be there for you."

Boebert will face Democratic nominee Eileen Laubacher in the November general election after the Democrat ran unopposed for her nomination.
