Marine Corps veteran and cryptocurrency advocate John Deaton won Tuesday's Republican primary for the U.S. Senate and now faces long odds to unseat Elizabeth Warren in November. Deaton defeated Quincy City Council President Ian Cain and Bob Antonellis, a strong backer of former President Trump.
In the video, Deaton said he was raised by a single mother who depended on welfare and food stamps"and worked as many jobs as she could to put food on the table." He said he was the first in his family to graduate from high school and said he"fought addiction, cancer and mountains of debt." More recently, Deaton became involved in litigation on behalf of the emerging cryptocurrency industry. But he makes little mention of that in his campaign, instead presenting himself as a champion of working families, promising to fight corruption and"take on the drug and insurance companies for better and more accessible health insurance."
"Senator Warren is taking nothing for granted," a Warren campaign spokesperson said."She has a strong record of delivering for working families and continues to fight hard for the people of Massachusetts.”
