Pro-XRP attorney John Deaton wins Republican US Senate primary
The pro-crypto lawyer secured victory in the Massachusetts Republican primary race and will now face off against industry antagonist Elizabeth Warren in November.
Pro-crypto attorney John Deaton has won the Republican nomination for the U.S. Senate in the Massachusetts primary election and is set to face off against Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren in November.
Deaton, a former Marine and outspoken advocate of Ripple (XRP), defeated two other Republican candidates including industrial engineer Bob Antonellis and Quincy city council president Ian Cain to nab the Republican nomination, according to a Sept. 4 report from the Associated Press.
He has secured 64% of votes so far, with just over 43% of the total votes in Massachusetts being counted at the time of publication, according to election tracking data from Politico.
