But that didn't stop 27-year-old Laura Loomer from trumpeting her resounding win over five other candidates Tuesday in the Republican primary.
According to federal records, Loomer raised $1.1 million for her primary campaign, a hefty sum for an underdog challenger.
Frankel, running against a political newcomer in Tuesdayโs Democratic primary, received 75,000 votes, or 86% of the 87,000 votes cast.
But the same factors that led to her primary win will make a victory in November difficult, he said.
In one tweet, she called on her followers to create a โnon-Islamicโ ride-sharing company because she did not want to support โanother Islamic immigrant driver.โ Uber and Lyft banned Loomer in 2017.
