Her electoral history is most of it. She underperformed the top of the ticket in 22 and just matched it in 2024 winning 48.4 and 48.2% each time (Harris got 47.7 in the district). Meanwhile Adam Frisch and Trisha Calvarese way out ran Harris in 24 so I don't buy this idea that it's impossible to do so. I think her stupid vote on immigration condemning Harris was well stupid (coloradonewsline.com/20…). You can distance yourself on immigration without jumping on an R resolution condemning Harris as VP. Her work in the legislature on thc products showed a tone deafness to young voters and businesses in her district. She can still win even with a not great campaign because the 8th is a marginal district that would be the first to fall in any kind of Dem year so she may not need to overperform the top of the ticket but I don't see any unique talent/ability with her either and would prefer someone new if they can prove themselves in the primary.
