#QAnon Nutbag Wins Oregon US Senate GOP Primary

May 20, 2020 Crackpots, Republicans

Jared Holt reports at Right Wing Watch:

Republicans in the state of Oregon have voted to nominate someone who believes in the QAnon conspiracy theory as their candidate for U.S. Senate in November’s election showdown. Jo Rae Perkins, whom Right Wing Watch profiled in January, won her primary election yesterday in a blowout, stomping her next closest opponent by more than 50,000 votes, according to official results.

In her victory speech Tuesday night, Perkins closed with an explicit acknowledgement of the QAnon movement. “We’re in this together. It’s all for one, so let’s make it happen. As all of us Q people like to say: ‘Where we go one, we go all,’” Perkins said. In a video posted to Twitter earlier Tuesday, Perkins looks into the camera and says: “I stand with President Trump. I stand with Q and the team. Thank you Anons and thank you patriots, and together we can save our Republic.”
