Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler concedes primary defeat to Trump-endorsed challenger Joe Kent

Six-term U.S. Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler conceded her loss to Donald Trump-endorsed challenger Joe Kent on Tuesday after new vote totals confirmed she would place third in the primary.

“Ever since I was first elected to this seat I have done my very best to serve my home region and our country. Though my campaign came up short this time, I’m proud of all we’ve accomplished together for the place where I was raised and still call home,” Herrera Beutler said in a statement.

Herrera Beutler did not mention Kent in her statement but made an apparent reference to her vote to impeach Trump over the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the U.S. Capitol.

Referring to “unexpected and difficult” moments, Herrera Beutler said, “I’m proud that I always told the truth, stuck to my principles, and did what I knew to be best for our country.”

Kent will face Democrat Marie Gluesenkamp Perez in November. She placed first in the primary with about 31% of the vote.

Herrera-Beutler, another classless RINO who didnt’t have the decency to congratulate Joe Kent or at least acknowledge his service, while continuing to defend herself as a parsgon of moral virtue. Bi*%#h.

Kent will face Democrat Marie Gluesenkamp Perez in November.

With a name like Goosestep, of course she’s a Dem.

Now, Joe Kent should be elected.... The only real elections being held is Wisconsin, not much going on in Connecticut, and Vermont and Minnesota will be Dem wins in November...

Take a hike Jaime.

You thought impeaching Trump, one of our nations greatest presidents, was a politically expedient choice for your career but you were wrong.

It just makes me wonder how someone at the time of that impeachment vote, could have been SO OUT OF TOUCH with the country in general, and her constituents in particular.
Just incredible.
