The surprise outside challenger in that race was Kathy Barnette, on about 25% of the vote. Also a far-right candidate, she focussed much of her campaign on Trump’s lies about the last presidential election – as well her personal story about being conceived when her mother being raped, aged 11, which she used to champion a ban on abortion. She, too, was at the 6 January rallies in Washington, protesting Biden’s victory.
