Trump-Backed Navy Vet Wins Senate Primary, Will Face Off Against Tim Kaine
A former Navy captain who ran with the backing of former President Donald Trump won Virginia’s Republican Senate primary on Tuesday.
Hung Cao received 61.8 percent of the vote, according to The Hill. The rest of the votes were scattered among four other candidates. Trump noted the win in a post on Truth Social.
Cao will face Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine, who was Hillary Clinton’s running mate in the 2016 general election, in November.
“My message to Tim Kaine is: don’t go away mad, just go away. Thirty years getting rich on our dime is more than enough,” Cao said, according to The Daily Signal.
