Wow, I really didn't think this would happen. What is wrong with America?

I'm guessing election fraud.

I was thinking payoffs to some groups. I image fraud in a primary would be more difficult.

Why do you think it would be harder in a primary?
- They probably pay some people off. But they can just hack the tally counters. Maybe the companies that make the (proprietary) software made some "changes" - like counting a vote for Gallrein as 1.5 votes and a vote for Massie as .5 votes. That's just one way they could have done it.

Lots less people vote in primaries then general and I have some faith in oversight. They pumped a lot of money into it and welp people can easily be swayed. They painted him in their attack as not a team player. More than possible people will not check facts and believe propaganda.

With as much money as AIPAC put into this, I won't believe they would accept a loss.
Bob Fitrakis has been involved in election integrity for quite awhile. He helped stop probably fraudulent actions in Ohio in 2012. (His web site.)

Saw somewhere that the margin of victory was decided by mail in votes delivered on the last day.

I didn't pay attention, but I know that election fraud is engaged in by both sides of the establishment.
I should refresh my memory, but I think mail-in ballots are treated the same as absentee or provisional ballots, and they're only counted if a race is close enough to be decided by them.
I have no idea what happened in KY, but I know that regular citizens are tired of Israel being treated better than Americans. So I find it hard to believe that enough people actually voted for the AIPAC candidate. And I am sure that Zios would have no qualms about election fraud.

that and the fact that the tally was rigged

Much easier to rig a primary than the general since there is no opposition party observers.

I remember last week a good three different podcasters I listen to called it, that if Massie loses, the entire media will frame it exclusively around how the loss is due to him coming under fire from Trump... And not one will mention how the whole opposition campaign was almost entirely funded by the Israel lobby. That they wont even mention the enormous role Israel has in this (Fun fact, many of the staffers on Ed's campaign, also helped Bibi's allies in Israel as well).
And what do you know... Every single outlet, from NPR to NYT, completely -- and I mean completely -- ignore how this campaign was primarily lead by the Israel lobby.
