Far-left Democrat Cori Bush appears to have lost her bid for re-election in Missouri’s First Congressional District.
Although the full results from the race are yet to be counted, it is already clear that Bush will not be returning to Congress next year.
With almost 20% of the votes reported, incumbent Squad member Cori Bush is trailing by more than 30% in her primary against pro-Israel Democrat Wesley Bell.
She was defeated by Democrat Wesley Bell, who does not share Bush’s stridently anti-Israel views. Bell is also a far-left radical.
Bush, who was first elected to Congress back in 2020, joins New York Rep. Jamaal Bowman as the second far-left Democrat to lose their seat in a Congressional primary.
UPDATE: The final results are in, and Bush managed to close the gap significantly.
However, she still fell well short of her opponent, who won by a margin of just under six percent.
