Lauren Boebert, the Colorado restauranteur who went viral last year for confronting Beto O'Rourke over gun rights, could be headed for Congress.

In a stunning upset Tuesday night, Boebert defeated Rep. Scott Tipton — whom President Donald Trump had endorsed — in the Republican primary election for Colorado's 3rd Congressional District.

When DecisionDeskHQ called the race in Boebert's favor, just minutes before 10 p.m. EST, Boebert had a significant lead of nearly 10,000 votes.

Boebert runs a restaurant in the western Colorado town of Rifle called Shooters Grill, which is known for its servers who openly carry firearms. Boebert is a staunch supporter of the Second Amendment, and is described of being further right of Rep. Tipton, who has served five terms in Congress.

Despite Tipton earning Trump's endorsement and being the Trump campaign's Colorado co-chair, Boebert argued on the campaign trail that Tipton was not sufficiently pro-Trump — and it worked.

"I want to congratulate Lauren Boebert and wish her and her supporters well," Tipton said in a statement late Tuesday, CNN reported.

Trump reacted, "Congratulations on a really great win!"

Boebert is perhaps best known for confronting former Democratic presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke last year. During a town hall in Colorado, Boebert responded to O'Rourke's infamous promise to confiscate certain firearms from Americans.

"I am here to say: Hell no, you're not," Boebert told O'Rourke.

Boebert, a political newcomer, will face Democrat Diane Mitsch Bush — whom Tipton defeated in 2018 — in the general election in November.

Good for her. We are well past the point where tippy toeing around is useful.

I must say, I like her attitude.

Yep, time to call a spade a spade and a commie corksucking pos just that.

Great win but now she has to deal with all those dirty Democrats

Does this mean no more peaceful protests? Because I really like peaceful protests. I think peaceful protests are the future when dealing with tyrannical, fanatical factions hellbent on the destruction of the country.

I really think we should have a peaceful protest.

Boebert will win S.W. Colorado. Rio7

Fixed that for ya.

yup...

Bet she's caused a negligent discharge here and there...

I believe she'll win as well. Her district is more conservative than the rest of Colorado, which is why Tipton was a 5 term congressman. The Cowboys love her (who wouldn't?) and the women like her moxie. The only folks who will vote Dem are the libs who have moved into that country from somewhere else and can't abide anyone who would touch a gun, let alone wear one on their hip. And, the libs don't have the majority in that district. Anyone that thinks the Dems have a chance to beat her are only fantasizing within their own liberal wet dreams. Not to mention that she's running against a 70 year old lady Democrat. Who would you vote for? I think she has a excellent chance.

If your watching Tucker you would know that several Republican Senators would be at risk. All we need is some decent folks to primary them. Hasbeen

I was wondering what Mandy was doing,now I know.

She was the daughter of Tim Allen in his TV show "Last Man Standing". lol

You’re a wise mouse.

Agreed. Past time.

I have no filter, and am far past GAF what people think about me when I speak up.

Sooo sick of all talk, small talk Rinos.

Don't rule out a peaceful protest. Look how well it worked in Va.

I hope there's hundreds more just like her getting ready to unseat these RINOS.

I actually ate at that cafe in Rifle before it was "gunned up."

The Slope is the last bastion of real Colorado pre Californication. Boebert should be an exciting member of Congress.

Wouldn't that be cool?
