He's rolling up his sleeves and opening his wallet to secure votes and a win to best Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) at the ballot box.
Boebert's former Democratic rival is cashing in on her retreat from Colorado's 3rd District and her new 4th District foe standing in her way to stay in Congress hopes to fatten his coffers too and defeat her.
John Padora released a video pleading for financial support to beat back Boebert from trying to win a third term in D.C.

"I announced my campaign for CD4 in May and now we just learned that Lauren Boebert is jumping into this district," he said in the video posted on Twitter/X.
He then started to disparage Boebert for the political switcheroo.
"Boebert's a carpetbagger who's abandoned her district because she's afraid of losing," he said. "She has no interest in governing the people who first elected her."
Boebert — a MAGA maverick who eked out holding her conservative seat in 2022 by just 546 votes announced on Wednesday that she would seek to run in a more Conservative-friendly district.
Her 3rd District spans Colorado’s Western Slope into Pueblo and southeastern Colorado whereas the 4th District includes Douglas County, Loveland, and the state’s rural Eastern Plains.
The move delivered a windfall for her former Democratic rival and former Aspen City Council member Adam Frisch, who raised more than $7.7 million
Padora hopes he can also ramp up on the fundraising front.
The candidate who lists engineer and environmental scientist as careers, blames Boebert for desperately trying to cling to the cushy congressional perks.
"She just wants the privileges and the money that come from being in Congress," he said. "You deserve someone who will serve you."
Then came the soft sell: "Can you please rush in anything you can today and make sure that we have the resources we need to beat Lauren Boebert? Thank you."
