It was a sleepy Tuesday of news until late this afternoon when the Democrat dropped out of the US Senate race:
However, as recently as yesterday, some people including this reporter from the Washington Post were out there claiming that was not going to be the case:
Now, less than a day later, he was having to update his post – but was very specific to note that Beaudion was NOT supporting the remaining independent candidate Brian Bengs, who was running in third place in polls prior to today’s announcement.
We’ll see how this changes the context of the race with Bengs, the independent third place candidate running against Senator Mike Rounds, who has already been endorsed by President Trump.
If this turns into a race it will be hard to motivate the volunteers. They have been a sleep for over a decade.
Beng is a Libertarian and not a former Democrat, even though he was the Party’s Senate nominee in ’22. All you have to do is watch his pieces on YouTube from when he was a professor at NSU and his once speech to the Heritage Foundation to understand that.
+ Genius 😉
I’m glad Bengs isn’t Jamie Smith.
