Breitbart News has learned that conservative talk radio host Laura Ingraham will campaign for Joe Carr, who is challenging Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-TN) in an August primary, at a "Restore America" rally on July 22 in Nashville.
After she helped propel Dave Brat to a shocking upset over House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) last month, Ingraham has been focused on toppling Alexander, whom she has referred to as a stale establishment Republican.
Ingraham endorsed Carr on Monday, and she is hoping to give Carr the type of momentum she gave to Brat, who shockingly ousted Cantor and effectively derailed amnesty legislation in this Congress. Ingraham endorsed Brat, hammered Cantor for his support of amnesty, and campaigned for Brat during the last week of the campaign, electrifying nearly 700 people who showed up in the middle of the week. Post-election polling found that Tea Party and anti-amnesty voters ousted Cantor.
Ingraham has relentlessly supported American workers against amnesty legislation and drastic increases in guest-worker visas that would lower wages of Americans of all backgrounds, and she told Breitbart News that "it is critical that we support quality conservative, pro-American worker, anti-amnesty candidates across America."
"The odds and the big money forces may be stacked against us, but Americans of good conscience have never backed down from a fight for our nations future," she said.
As Breitbart News has reported, Carr has closed the gap in the polls -- he is now within seven points in a recent poll conducted by a pro-Carr group -- after he started relentlessly calling out Alexander for voting for the Senate's amnesty bill last year even though law enforcement officials warned Alexander that the bill would exacerbate the border crisis.

Early voting starts in couple days here in Knoxville.
Will gladly vote for Carr.
Will not vote for Alexander under any circumstance.
How are the bastards going to cheat another good candidate out of a win this time? Any guesses?
Libs go with what works that means the GOPE will buy votes of democrats for their shill and if need be just find magical boxes of uncounted votes for limp wrist lamar.
Carr has closed the gap in the polls — he is now within seven points in a recent poll

Last poll I saw was Lamar 44 and Carr 36. A life-long entrenched, TN politician at only 44%. Apparently 20% undecided. Undecideds ALWAYS break for the challenger. Bye,bye Lamar
