Arizona House Speaker Rusty Bowers has lost his Republican primary bid for a state Senate seat to a candidate backed by former President Donald Trump, just weeks after Bowers testified to the House Jan. 6 committee.
State Sen. David Farnsworth, who was endorsed by Trump in June, was projected by The Associated Press and other news outlets to win the GOP primary against Bowers. As of the morning of Aug. 3, Farnsworth held a more than 20-point lead over Bowers.
