Brian Kemp<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/georgias-embattled-raffensperger-noses-past-trump-endorsee-to-win-secretary-of-state-gop-primary_4488716.html\">Secretary of State Brian Raffensperger<\/a>, and Attorney General Chris Carr defeated Trump-endorsed opponents in Georgia by huge margins, surpassing the 50 percent support needed to avoid runoffs. The three GOP officials have drawn criticism from Trump for\u00a0allegedly not doing enough to investigate\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/t-fulton-county\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">allegations of illegal voting<\/a>\u00a0after the 2020 election.<\/p>\n<p>Such setbacks have so far appeared to be largely confined to Georgia. And one bright spot for Trump in the state came from football great Herschel Walker, who won the Republican Senate primary on May 24 and received 68.2 percent of the vote, with 95 percent of the votes counted by May 25. The second-place candidate Gary Black, the state agriculture commissioner, received 13 percent of the vote.<\/p>\n<p>Walker, also endorsed by Sen. Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), is taking on Democrat incumbent Sen. Raphael Warnock in the November general election.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat a long distance you\u2019ve come,\u201d Trump said during a congratulatory speech over the phone at the victory party. \u201cAnd I\u2019m only going to be more proud of you after November,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene also won the Republican House primary in Georgia\u2019s 14th Congressional District.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s preferred candidates across Alabama, Arkansas, and Texas, many of whom ran a less competitive or unopposed race on Tuesday, swept to victories. The GOP nominees include incumbent Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/ken-paxton-wins-texas-attorney-general-gop-primary_4488851.html\">defeated<\/a> state Land Commissioner George P. Bush in a runoff after the March primary, Arkansas governor nominee Sarah Huckabee Sanders, and Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Ala.).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA very big and successful evening of political endorsements,\u201d said the former president. \u201cAll wins in Texas (33 &#038; 0 for full primary list), Arkansas, and Alabama. A great new senatorial candidate, and others, in Georgia,\u201d he added, referring to\u00a0Walker.<\/p>\n<p>The six who lost their races so far are: Nebraska gubernatorial candidate Charles Herbster, Idaho gubernatorial candidate Janice McGeachin, Georgia gubernatorial candidate David Perdue, Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-N.C.), Georgia Secretary of State candidate Rep. Jody Hice (R-Ga.), and Georgia attorney general candidate John Gordon.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/ballotpedia.org\/Endorsements_by_Donald_Trump\">Ballotpedia<\/a>, in 2020, 141 of the 183 candidates that Trump endorsed triumphed in their races.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans are favored to win control of Congress in the Nov. 8 elections, which would grant them the power to halt Democratic President Joe Biden\u2019s legislative agenda.<\/p>\n<div class=\"author_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"one_author_block round\">\n<div class=\"top_row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/author-rita-li\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/assets\/themes\/eet\/images\/default-user.png\" alt=\"Rita Li\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Follow<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Rita Li is a reporter with The Epoch Times, focusing on U.S. and China-related topics.
