Ted Budd defeats establishment candidate Pat McCrory, despite McCrory’s massive fundraising operation. Huge win for President Trump. The Trump endorsement is gold for Republican candidates. Just the latest example that the Republican Party is now President Trump’s party.
Bud’s opponent launched $12 million in attack ads. That’s huge in a primary.
Trump endorsed candidates are pulling far ahead.

Trump-endorsed Ted Budd wins N.C. GOP Senate primary
By Axios, May 17, 2022
Rep. Ted Budd won the Republican nomination for North Carolina’s open U.S. Senate seat on Tuesday, per the AP.
Why it matters: The outcome is a victory for former President Trump, who endorsed Budd and whose power as the GOP’s kingmaker is being tested with every endorsement he’s made in primaries across the country.
-
Budd defeated former Gov. Pat McCrory in a long, expensive and brutal primary that saw nearly six months of attack ads and mailers and even had its own Waffle House hash browns controversy.
-
Budd benefited from an $11 million ad campaign from Club For Growth.
