Democrat Marquita Bradshaw officially lost the U.S. Senate race to U.S. Sen.-Elect Bill Hagerty Tuesday by a landslide margin, but she said Tuesday that she refuses to accept the results.
Bradshaw also said she wont address Hagerty as her new U.S. senator.
Bradshaw said this while addressing her supporters Tuesday night. This, after Tennessee Secretary of State Tre Hargett posted election results on that departments website.
In true South Memphis style we fight for everything that we have to get. This is not a concession speech. It is on the principle of democracy that we will fight until every last vote is counted, Bradshaw told her followers Tuesday.
I have already made history, and that was not my intention. But what I will do is make sure that you know that your vote will be counted in this United States Senate race. Because I know the antics that theyve done in the past, and it goes no farther than here. So, in true South Memphis style, we will fight and we will go find my votes at the bottom of the basement.
Bradshaw offered no evidence to support her accusations.
Bradshaw, according to election results, got 35 percent of the vote to Hagertys 62 percent.
As The Tennessee Star reported in August, Bradshaw is an environmental activist and former AFL-CIO organizer. Bradshaws campaign website describes her as a lifelong environmentalist and activist for social & economic justice who has proudly fought alongside the people of Tennessee.
The website also lists her as a community organizer who volunteers for, among other groups, the AFL-CIO, the left-leaning Sierra Club Executive Committee, and the Tennessee African American Environmental Justice Network.
Bradshaw said Tuesday that she is not going away.
Bill Hagerty is not my U.S. senator and we will count the last vote, Bradshaw said.
My name is Marquita Bradshaw, and I will be your next United States senator.

So, in true South Memphis style, we will fight and we will go find my votes at the bottom of the basement.
Hey, if she wants to contest it, great!
Let’s go over her district with a fine tooth comb, too.
Fraud didn’t just occur in the swing states.
Let’s go after it all.
Everywhere.
...we will go find my votes at the bottom of the basement.
****************************************
What are your voters doing in the basement, Marquita?
This is standard practice in third world countries.
Filling out ballots of course...............
It certainly proves that Republicans arent the only ones who are willing to vigorously contest an election!Not that we needed proof of that!
Dems wont admit a 35-62 loss, but Biden is working on his transition team without 270 EVs.
The party of make believe....and fraud.
Shameful.
She and Stacy Abrams should grab a beer sometime.
Loser talk from a loser - she isn’t going to be Senator.
I was just going to ask, is she a minority?
Because that’s “double plus good!”
Jackpot, Babe!
*rolls eyes*
She lost by that kind of margin and disputes it?
Math is hard for those who went to public skoolze..................
The USA will be like South Africa, Venezuela and Haiti......COMBINED.......................
The imaginary senator from Tennessee is a loud black woman just like the imaginary governor of Georgia...
Not at a 35/62 loss...................
The Stacy Abrams strategy.
if he manages to steal the election imagine the small ass inauguration? I know it’s in DC and MD, DC, NYC, and Philly are close to get many of the Marxists there to show support but I bet you the media will not show crowd size. Remember how many people showed for POTUS and they tried to say it was hardly anyone there? Wait for Weekend at Bernie’s Coronation.
“Bradshaw offered no evidence to support her accusations”
Race card forthcoming
