Far-Right Activist Laura Loomer Refuses to Concede, Sobs About Voter Fraud
Source: newsweek

Far-right activist and congressional candidate Laura Loomer broke into tears as she claimed without evidence that she was illegally robbed of a Republican primary victory on Tuesday.
Incumbent Representative Daniel Webster won Tuesday's GOP primary for Florida's 11th Congressional District, according to the Associated Press. Although Webster won the race with 51 percent of the vote to Loomer's 44 percent with over 95 percent of ballots counted, Loomer refused to concede and instead suggested that the result was fraudulent.
Loomer previously won a Florida Republican primary race for Congress in 2020 but lost to her Democratic opponent, Representative Lois Frankel, by more than 16 points in the general election. .............
.......................
"I'm not conceding, because I'm a winner and the reality is our Republican Party is broken to its core," Loomer told supporters in a speech following her loss. "What we have done tonight has really honestly shocked the nation. We have further exposed the corruption within our own feckless, cowardly Republican Party."
"We are losing our country to big-tech election interference," she added as tears streamed down her face. "And I am pleading with the Republican Party to please start taking this issue seriously, because the American people deserve representation."...............

(22,037 posts)Did the Republican Party cheat you out of a win? It was a Republican primary, after all and the Democrats had nothing to do with it.
Are you going to go to court? What's your evidence? (Feelings, by the way, are not evidence.)
Do you think you can fund raise off your defeat like Trump has? (You don't have his charisma.)
Here's a hint: Sit down and shut up. Lick your wounds and research if there's another path into politics for you. This lane is closed.
You're a loser, Loomer. Get over it.

She was against a long-time incumbent, who had dutifully signed a pro-Trump amicus brief in one of his spurious election lawsuits, and this week's performance art is thus a tearful rant that she's a winner, so must have be defrauded. She has, in fact, never won anything in her life.

(5,401 posts)But she is obviously out of her comfort zone, and promised herself the unobtainable.
When you have role models like Boebert and MTG though, I guess she thought he could do it too, with her very limited skill set.
But the voters, the GOP, damn them, they let her down!
"I'm not conceding, because I'm a winner and the reality is our Republican Party is broken to its core,"
Way to go dear, NOT your fault! Right from the GOP 'not my fault' playbook as written by TFG!
She might want to think about a future career change, politics obviously isn't for her.

(8,224 posts)has been winning in that district for various offices since the red wave in 1994. Many people have tried to beat him, but only Alan Grayson ever did, and the district was redrawn to prevent that from ever happening again. Taking on Webster in that district was futile from the start, she did better than most, which is still a long way short.
