I read a Twitter post by The Calvin Coolidge Project about the house races. He highlighted 5 of them. Looks like the incumbent rino’s are holding on. Some of the races had 2 or 3 vying against the incumbent which splinters the vote and we’re stuck with the rino’s.
Squishy state legislators won GOP primaries in CD-1 and CD-8. CD-1 (Gary, Hammond, Michigan City, most of LaPorte) hardly matters because the Democrat is easily going to win again in November.
In CD-8 ex-Congressman Hostettler wasn’t exactly a paragon of arch-conservatism, but he’d be better than Messmer who is a total squish.
Spartz, lately, isn’t SO bad on issues unrelated to Ukraine. She alone in the U.S. House at least has a somewhat decent excuse to keep funneling U.S. taxpayer money to that corrupt rathole — since she is from that country.
Spartz had initially decided not to run again this year, and was probably lured back in out of GOPe fear that a true conservative would win her district.
Baird in CD-4 is a RINO joke but Trump endorsed him anyway since he was 98% certain to win tonight.
I don’t know much about Jefferson Shreve in CD-6, just that he ran for Mayor of Indy; Mike Speedy would probably have been a better option. Either way it’s an easy hold in November, as are all of the above districts which have GOP reps right now.
