As Tea Party challengers grappled with the stunning news that Sen. Thad Cochran had beaten the odds to win his primary against Chris McDaniel, Tennessee candidate for Senate Joe Carr vowed that the fight would continue.
Carr specifically criticized the Cochran campaign for working to drive out Democrat supporters to win the runoff election.
According to the Associated Press, Cochran earned 50.8 percent of the vote, while McDaniel peaked with 49.2 percent.
Carr is challenging establishment Republican Sen. Lamar Alexander in Tennessee, who is running for a third term.
