“Last night, the American people sent a resounding message that they are tired of lawlessness, radicalism, elitism, identity politics, open borders, failed economic policies and a government that is not serving them,” Spartz said in a statement.
Democratic challenger Deborah Pickett garnered 38%. of the total vote.
Independent Robby Slaughter and Libertarian Lauri Shillings secured 2.7% of the total vote each.
