Wow, the headlins kind of says it all: # Laura Loomer cries fraud: “I’m not conceding because I’m a winner" I guess her view is more important than the facts. She reminds me of the candidate from Georgia who also refused to concede (and she lost BIG!). Last I heard, she was asking her voters to sign notarized affidavits that they voted for her. The idea was that when hundreds, or thousands more affidavits existed thn votes counted for her it would PROVE voter fraud. (That was months ago and have not heard a thing since then.) She was the Jesus, Guns, Babies candidate and she only received 3.4% of the vote. > **[Ignoring reality, some primary candidates refuse to admit defeat](https://www.gpb.org/news/2022/07/05/ignoring-reality-some-primary-candidates-refuse-admit-defeat)** > > This year's primary election cycle has seen plenty of blowouts, but that's not stopping some Republicans from crying fraud. ---

Y’all can keep your election deniers. Here in Missouri Katherine Pinner, a nice, middle-aged white lady won the Republican primary for St. Louis County Executive against a respected Republican state legislator who happens also to be Black. The nice lady spent no money campaigning, took no contributions, gave no interviews, and supposedly didn’t even tell her neighbors she was running for office. While being completely under everyone’s (including the county Republican committee) radar, she got 56% of the vote in the primary. Then the fun started. > **[Masks are linked to satanic rituals, St. Louis County executive candidate...](https://www.stltoday.com/news/local/govt-and-politics/masks-are-linked-to-satanic-rituals-st-louis-county-executive-candidate-claims-in-suit/article_94005075-887c-581c-a89a-32ae711a280c.html)** > > Katherine Pinner, a 55-year-old political newcomer from unincorporated St. Louis County near Affton, sued the American Association of Orthodontists claiming religious discrimination. ---
