Former President Trump wasn’t on the ballot, but he was one of the winners as the candidate he backed won a GOP primary in a special House election in Ohio's 15th Congressional District on Tuesday.

And progressive Democrats were the losers, as the well-known contender they were supporting lost to a candidate endorsed by the party’s establishment and the Congressional Black Caucus in a Democratic primary election for a vacant House seat in Ohio’s 11th Congressional District.

"Tonight, Republicans across Ohio's 15th Congressional District sent a clear message to the nation that President Donald J. Trump is, without a doubt, the leader of our party," said Mike Carey, the candidate the former president endorsed, said on Tuesday night.

We have a LOT more work to do replacing Bush League Republicans.

Stivers quit making it easier, there are 145 that voted for Liz Cheney to lead them away from MAGA in February that need to be primaried.

As if the Congressional Black Caucus isn’t a progressive group, much less the party establishment. Mkay. Sure.

This is just the beginning.

A tidal wave of retribution for the 2020 Steal is coming for the RINO-traitors in the 2022 primaries.

Meaning there are 3 vacancies: these 2 OH seats plus Alcee Hastings’ FL seat.

Not if the betrayers at Fox News remain silent again on the obvious election fraud that happened right before their eyes.

Not to mention the intentional calling Arizona for Biden while the polls were still open, with people still waiting in line to vote.

There was a post saying that Stark County just purchased Dominion Voting Machines that are to be used in the next election.

You should autjor a post thanking Liz Cheney for identifying the 145 turncoats the primary out. something with a title like "Thanks Liz Cheney for Exposing RINOs to Boot in the 2022 GOP primaries".

The problem is it was a secret vote, so we can’t readily identify them.

That is why they used the secret vote. There is no such thing as a secret vote if it was done in the House legislative chamber. Somebody recorded the votes and it will come out.

My GOP rep admitted to voting for Lizard Cheney. I imagine many others did, too. He’s not going to get a do-over from my family. We won’t be voting for him and Lizard in 2022.

Correct. The Nov 2 elections will fill these two seats leaving the only other vacant seat which is the FL 20th district.

I doubt that any candidate the CBC backs can be considered a win. At least for the constituents. Hope the republican wins the final contest.
