Well, I already knew about the high profile races like Mia Love obviously. Some digging on various Tea Party websites, SCF, Club for growth, and I came up with a shortlist of anti-establishment candidates. Cross checked to see if they won, and viola, this list.
Unfortunately, we weren’t successful everywhere. With 75% of the vote in for the general jungle in Washington’s 4th district, moderate Dan Newhouse appears to be edging out conservative former football player Clint Didier.
A Tea Party candidate Bob Johnson in one of Georgia’s other districts got defeated by someone more moderate in the primary. Igor Birman was robbed of the chance to take down Ami Bera in California by pro-abort Doug Osse.
However, even if Johnny Tacherra doesn’t remain ahead of Jim Costa in California, the total remains where it is because I forgot a highly conservative candidate in North Carolina called Mark Walker, who wants to stop illegals using jet fighters on the southern border. He won as well on Tuesday.
You are doing great yeoman’s work. It is important to put all the pieces together and make sense of the trends and opportunities.
I think your work should be packaged for greater syndication. Thank-you again.
