Eric Schmitt Wins Missouri GOP Senate Race

Good news, everyone! Missouri’s Attorney General Eric Schmitt has won the Republican Senate primary.

Eric Schmitt has won the Republican nomination for Senate in Missouri, NBC News projects, ending a comeback bid by the state’s disgraced former governor, Eric Greitens.

Schmitt, the state’s attorney general, was leading Rep. Vicky Hartzler, with Greitens further behind in third place, according to early results. He will face the winner of Tuesday’s Democratic primary, Trudy Busch Valentine, a nurse and heir to the Anheuser-Busch beer fortune. NBC News projects that Valentine has beat out 10 other Democrats, including Lucas Kunce, a Marine veteran with national support among progressives, who earned a late endorsement from Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.

The Democratic primary was sleepy compared to the GOP contest, which commanded extraordinary attention for a primary in a reliably red state.

You may remember Schmitt smacking down Soros-backed Democratic St. Louis prosecutor Kim Gardner for trying to charge Mark and Patricia McCloskey with felonies for daring to exercise their Second Amendment rights to defend themselves. (Ironically, Mark McCloskey was one of the people he defeated in the primary, as the Democrat-mugged-by-reality-turned-Republican came in a distant fifth.)

Schmitt received a whole lot of conservative endorsements, including Gun Owners of America, Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, and the Senate Conservative Fund.

Like Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, he also spends a good bit of time suing the Biden Administration for unconstitutional policies. “I wake up, I go to the office, I sue Joe Biden, I go home.”

Schmitt should make a good, conservative senator.
