Far-left Democrat Cori Bush appears to have lost her bid for re-election in Missouri’s First Congressional district by a landslide.
While full results from the race are yet to be counted, it is already clear that Bush will not be returning to Congress next year.

With almost 20% report, incumbent Squad member Cori Bush is down more than 30% in her primary against pro-Israel Democrat Wesley Bell.

She was defeated by Democrat Wesley Bell, who does not share Bush’s stridently anti-Israel views. Wesley Bell is also a far left radical.
Bush, who was first elected to Congress back in 2020, joins New York Rep. Jamaal Bowman as the second far-left Democrat to lose their seat in a Congressional primary.
They will not be missed.
Update: We called this back in June….
Will Cori Bush be the Next Member of the Squad to Lose Her Seat to a Primary Challenger?
