From Conservapedia Here is a growing list of GOP incumbents who were "primaried" (defeated in their own primaries) in 2022, and why:
| Incumbent | Office | Reason for defeat in his primary |
|---|---|---|
| Sal Santoro | Kentucky State Rep. (R-Union) | defeated by Marianne Proctor, who ran on a pro-Constitution “liberty” platform critical of infringements during the COVID-19 pandemic. |
| Ed Massey | Kentucky State Rep. (R-Hebron) | defeated by Steve Rawlings by a more than 2-to-1, who also ran on a pro-Constitution “liberty” platform critical of infringements during the COVID-19 pandemic. |
| Adam Koenig | Kentucky State Rep. (R-Erlanger) | defeated by Erlanger City Councilman Steve Doan, who ran on the pro-Constitution liberty platform. |
| Madison Cawthorn | Congressman from North Carolina (R-11th Dist.) | observed that Zelensky is a thug and opposed $53+ billion in handouts to his Leftist regime; liberals retaliated by relentlessly smearing the 26-year-old, wheelchair-bound Cawthorn personally concerning harmless conduct. |
| David McKinley | Congressman from West Virginia (R-2nd Dist.) | Lost primary to Tea Party Incumbent Alex Mooney due to redistricting. McKinley voted for Biden's infrastructure bill |
