Twenty-seven candidates who have publicly expressed at least some support for the QAnon conspiracy theory25 Republicans, one member of the Independent Party of Delaware, and one independentsecured a spot on the ballot in yesterdays general election.
They almost entirely failed, a poor showing for the burgeoning movement. But they can tout at least one success.
Shiva Ayyadurai, Massachusetts: After losing the Republican Senate primary, the self-described inventor of email and QAnon supporter ran as a write-in candidate but received less than 1% in the general election.
Derrick Grayson, Georgia: Grayson is one of many candidates in Georgias Senate special election primary. He shared Q slogans in tweets touting a discussion with Ron Paul about the Federal Reserve and won roughly 1.1% of the vote, failing to advance to the runoff.
Jo Rae Perkins, Oregon: Perkins won slightly less than 50% in the GOP Oregon Senate primary, and has been a prolific promoter and supporter of Q. Shes claimed that Q is a military intelligence operation, compared belief in Q to belief in Jesus Christ, and over the summer, was one of a number of high-profile Republicans to take the oath to become a QAnon digital soldier. Running in a heavily Democratic state, she lost the general election 59%-38% to Sen. Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.).
Lauren Witzke, Delaware: After winning her insurgent candidacy in the Republican Senate primary, Witzke lost to stalwart Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.) 59%-38%. Witzke had publicly endorsed Q a number of times, though she later retracted that support, claiming that Q was a psyop designed to make people trusting of a non-existent plan and that it was more hype than substance.
Josh Barnett, Arizona 7th Congressional District: Barnett, who shared numerous QAnon hashtags before denouncing the movement as nonsense, won the Republican nomination after running unopposed but lost to incumbent Rep. Josh Gallego (D-Ariz.).
Joyce Bentley, Nevada 1st Congressional District: Bentley won her primary election in June and had shared the hugely popular QAnon video The Plan to Save the World in October 2018. She lost to incumbent Democrat Dina Titus.
Lauren Boebert, Colorado 3rd Congressional District: One of the most prolific Q-supporters running for Congress, Boebert has appeared on multiple hugely popular QAnon YouTube channels, only to claim since then that she doesnt follow Q. On Wednesday, Boebert beat Democrat Diane Mitsch Bush to clinch the seat for Colorados 3rd Congressional District. She previously released a statement to supporters calling herself Congresswoman-elect, claiming, The QAnon attacks were ridiculous. I have consistently said I am not a follower of and I do not believe in conspiracy theories.
Rayla Campbell, write-in candidate for Massachusetts 7th Congressional District: Campbell, who has been seen in social media posts in a Q t-shirt, lost to incumbent Rep. Ayanna Presley (D-Mass.).

Alison Hayden, California 15th Congressional District: Hayden finished in the top-two of her California blanket primary and has shared a number of QAnon tweets and videos. Hayden lost to popular incumbent Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.).
Bob Lancia, Rhode Island 2nd Congressional District: Lancia is a former Rhode Island state legislator who easily won his primary election and has retweeted Q material, though he denied being an actual follower of the movement, claiming that his staff retweeted the posts because they supported President Trump. He lost to 11-term Rep. Jim Langevin (D-Fla.)
Tracy Lovvorn, Massachusetts 2nd Congressional District: Lovvorn won her primary after running unopposed and has shared Q slogans on multiple social media platforms. She lost her election in this heavily Democratic district near Boston to 13-term Rep. James McGovern (D-Mass.).
KW Miller, Florida 18th Congressional District: Miller got a measure of national attention for his candidacy with his bizarre theories about Beyonc not actually being Black, as well as his vocal support of QAnon. Despite his media profile, Miller received around just 2% of the vote in his bid to unseat Republican Brian Mast.
Buzz Patterson, California 7th Congressional District: Patterson, who finished second in the blanket primary in his district, was asked on Twitter if he supported QAnon and replied, Yep!
