The primary losers have an obvious role model: Trump himself.
After his 2020 defeat, Trump and his supporters lost 63 of 64 legal challenges to the election.

Still, he complained of problems with the election to the state party, as did another losing GOP contender, Lauren Martel, who ran for for attorney general. The party rejected their claims.Joey Gilbert, who came in second in the Nevada Republican primary for governor, posted a Facebook video days after the June tally showing him 26,000 votes short.
